  • Bathroom fan

    Exhaust fans aren’t just for keeping the bathroom from smelling bad.
  • Brass

    Many brass objects have been coated with lacquer to help maintain the shine. Avoid using abrasive pads or cleaners, since abrasion will remove the lacquer.
  • Refrigerator interior

    Clean up all spills right away. Here’s how to do that occasional, thorough cleaning.
  • White vinegar

    Think of it as an inexpensive mineral scale remover. It's not the best solution for most cleaning situations.
  • Acetic acid

    The main active ingredient in vinegar.
  • Automotive exterior

    Vehicle paint is another durable, yet easily scratched surface.
  • Oven, continuous-cleaning

    Abrasive pads and harsh cleaning agents can degrade this oven’s ability to keep itself clean.
  • Chrome

    Clean gently — it's very easy to wear this surface down.
  • Formica

    This laminate surface is durable and resilient if properly cleaned.
  • Wicking

    An explanation of how dirt can re-appear on a (supposedly) clean carpet or sofa.
  • Oriental rug

    This is another easy-does-it job. When in doubt, seek professional help.
  • Bleach

    It's not just from a chlorine bottle anymore.
  • Ivory

    If you have a genuine ivory heirloom, clean it with care. Plastic is easier to maintain and doesn't endanger wildlife.
  • Wet (soak) mopping

    What to do when damp mopping no longer effectively cleans a vinyl, tile or sealed-stone floor.
  • Water softener

    A water softening additive can help with laundering in hard water. There’s also a more permanent solution.
  • Bronze

    An ancient alloy that might not need cleaning, after all.
  • Quartz surface

    It's a lot more resistant to staining and damage than other stone or composite countertops. Cleanup is easy.
  • Oven, self-cleaning

    The self-cleaning cycle works by incinerating stuck-on food and grease at high temperatures.
  • Solvent safety

    Use carefully to protect yourself, your family and the environment.
  • Hazardous waste

    These products can threaten your family’s health and the environment.
