1. Microwave & vinegar

Cleaning made easy by using vinegar. Fill a bowl with vinegar and water and place it in the microwave. Caution!: Placing of a small wooden piece like chopstick to the bowl to prevent boiling or explosion!. Set the microwave for 5-10 minutes and enjoy the steam cleaning. Wait a couple minutes to open it up, and then wipe the surfaces clean with a sponge or paper towel.

2. Clean kitchen oil stain with oil

Kitchen is always spattered with oil and just the worst to clean; to make matter worse the soap just never seems to be enough to clean it. So instead, use oil to clean oil. Add a few drops of vegetable oil to paper towel, then wipe the greasy surface and watch the oil disappear.

3. Remove wood water marks with hair dryer

Set the hair dryer to medium heat and hold it two inches away from the stain. As heat is applied onto the surface, use a cloth or napkin to buff away the mark. Continue wiping until the surface is blemish-free.

4. Remove water stains with lemon

Cut a lemon in half and scrub on the surface with the lemon halves. Rinse with water and wipe dry. Works great on chromed bathroom and kitchen fixtures that have hard water stains which won't come off with regular cleaners.
