  • Borax

    Cleaner and brighter, thanks to this booster.
  • Paint spot

    Latex or oil-based? Either way, take action quickly before it dries into a permanent stain.
  • Ketchup spills

    Fast action will help reduce chances this spot will become permanent.
  • Blood

    A not-so-fearsome stain — if it gets immediate attention.
  • Rust stain

  • Chelating agent

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

  • Urine

    Act quickly to prevent this spot from drying and becoming a permanent problem.

  • Acetone

    That bottle of nail-polish remover has more than just one purpose.
  • Water softener

    A powder can help with laundering in hard water. There’s also a more permanent solution.
  • Soap

    The old standby is mild enough for personal use, but doesn’t work too well in hard water.
  • Marble

    Solid as a rock? Not quite, if it’s unsealed marble.
  • Spills, spots

    A guide to the best ways of preventing stains on floors, rugs, carpet and upholstery.
  • Shower stall

    Preventing the buildup of soap scum and water deposits is a lot easier than removal later.
  • Wilsonart sinks

    Sinks and bowls for solid-surface and laminate countertop lines manufactured by Wilsonart® International Inc., Temple, TX.

    Turn and vacuum twice a year for better sleep — and better health.
