  • Abrasive (scouring) cleaners

    They're great aids in everyday chores, but be careful — don't cause damage that can only complicate future cleaning.
  • Absorbents

    Granular substances that help clean up stains and spills without solvents or chemicals.
  • Acoustic popcorn ceiling

    A ceiling finish that presents a cleaning challenge.
  • Acrylic fixture

    Stash the abrasive cleaners elsewhere. Abrasives will damage this plastic material.
  • Alkalies

    Best for removing grease and oil.
  • Ammonia

    Another fine degreaser, but watch that smell!
  • Awnings

    Tread lightly while cleaning these sun screens.
  • Baking soda

    This mild abrasive is also a decent deodorizer.
  • Biofilm

    More than just gross, that slime is a bacterial fortress.
  • Bleach

    It's not just from a chlorine bottle anymore.
  • Blinds, window

    How to be proud of their appearance again, the easy way.
  • Bottle

    Don't get fingers or hands stuck during this task.
  • Brick, exterior

    Do these things if your chimney really needs cleaning.
  • Broom

    Old-style corn brooms are much harder to use than their modern counterparts.
  • Butcher block

    A place where cleanliness really helps keep the family healthy.
  • Candles

    They create a warm, cozy atmosphere — and present some hazards as well.
  • Caulk

    Durable and easily applied, caulk makes repairing cracked or broken grout easy.
  • Central air conditioner

    Keep components clean — you'll reduce dust and save energy.
  • Chelating agent

    A "builder" that gets dissolved minerals out of the way of laundry detergent.
  • Chlorine bleach

    This laundry aid is also an effective disinfectant, but be careful.
