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.
Acetic acid
The main active ingredient in vinegar.
Acid
It's helpful — and hazardous — at the same time.
Acoustical tile ceiling
A ceiling that absorbs sound — plus a whole lot more.
Acrylic fixture
Stash the abrasive cleaners elsewhere. Abrasives will damage this plastic material.
Air cleaner
There are several different types, but these useful appliances are no substitute for good cleaning and other preventive measures.
Air filter
All forced-air heating and air-conditioning systems have HVAC filters.
Air watt
This standard measures the cleaning power of a vacuum cleaner.
Ammonia
Another fine degreaser, but watch that smell!
Anti-bacterial products
The scientific debate continues over whether soaps, sprays and wipes may end up doing more harm than good.
Ashtray
A mess that's pretty easy to clean up quickly.
Audio/video components
These things are dust magnets. Upkeep, thankfully, is pretty easy.
Automotive exterior
Vehicle paint is another durable, yet easily scratched surface.
Automotive interior
That new-car appearance and smell won’t last forever. These tips will keep the ride pleasant for many years.
Awnings
Tread lightly while cleaning these sun screens.

Pros use this machine all day, avoiding back strain and repetitive stress injury.
Bacteria digester
A handy cleaner, particularly with pets or small children around.
Baking soda
This mild abrasive is also a decent deodorizer.
Baseboards
The no-backache way to keep them clean.
