  • Grease

    Scrubbing won’t get rid of it. Here’s the easy way.
  • Wall, painted

    First, vacuum or dry-sponge walls. Wash if necessary with the following method.
  • Acoustical tile ceiling

    A ceiling that absorbs sound — plus a whole lot more.
  • Dry sponge

    Removes dirt where you can't use liquids.
  • Dishwasher

    While not high-maintenance, it does need a little care occasionally.
  • Sink, enameled metal

    Enamel is a tough, attractive finish, but it can be scratched or chipped.
  • Brick, interior (untreated)

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

    Don’t reach for bleach — it will make this stain worse. Here’s what to do.
  • Blinds, vertical

    Introducing a handy tool for making quick work of this task.
  • White vinegar

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

    Not an all-purpose cleaner, though it does have several effective uses around the house.
  • Grease, airborne

    Prevention is at least as important as cleaning here.
  • Sponge

    Some cleaning tools need cleaning themselves. This is one.
  • Formica®

    Sharp objects and harsh chemicals will damage this widely used surface permanently.
  • Refrigerator interior

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

    Here’s the safe way to spot clean any painted surface.
  • Alkalies

    Best for removing grease and oil.
  • Heater, portable

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

    It’s best to follow instructions that came with the wallcovering. Read on if care tips can’t be found.
  • Radiator, baseboard (electric)

    For safety’s sake, cut power to these units before cleaning them.
