  • Baseboards

    The no-backache way to keep them clean.
  • Lampshade

    Cloth shades should be cleaned carefully with dry methods. Spot clean with wet methods only when absolutely necessary.
  • Wallpaper

    It’s best to follow instructions that came with the wallcovering. Read on if care tips can’t be found.
  • Umbrella

    The two kinds of umbrellas need different care, according to the experts.
  • Teflon® cookware

    Cleanup is a snap. That’s why so many people like Teflon.
  • Enamel, enameled surface

    It’s a durable finish, but it’s not indestructible.
  • Audio/video components

    These things are dust magnets. Upkeep, thankfully, is pretty easy.
  • Lock

    Once-a-year maintenance that should take less than 5 minutes. Promise!
  • Wrought iron

    To save its appearance, all of the rust has to go first.
  • Degreaser

    A wide range of cleaning liquids, from mild to caustic.
  • Scuff mark

    The best advice is “easy does it” when trying to remove scuff marks.
  • Toaster

    For safety’s sake, unplug this appliance and let it cool first.
  • Blender

    Separate the parts, and clean this kitchen appliance easily.
  • Hair dryer

    As with all electrical appliances, always unplug, and never get the insides wet.
  • Automotive exterior

    Vehicle paint is another durable, yet easily scratched surface.
  • Heater, portable

    If it has a plug, make sure it’s nowhere near an outlet before cleaning.
  • Oven, self-cleaning

    The self-cleaning cycle works by incinerating stuck-on food and grease at high temperatures.
  • Radiator, steam (upright)

    These are the simplest, safest type of radiator to keep clean.
  • Brick, interior (untreated)

    This porous surface can be cleaned using the right methods.
  • Candles

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