- [Voiceover] Today, we'll tackle some of life's
most annoying cleaning situations.
So snap on some gloves and let's get scrubbing.
Summer's almost here and your grill's
been sitting in storage collecting rust and grime.
Here's how to quickly mash that problem.
Remove your grates from your grill
and place them on a flat surface.
Fill a small container with vegetable oil
and slice up a potato into grippable pieces.
Now apply a light coat of oil directly onto the grates.
Once that's done, sprinkle coarse salt all over the top.
This will help give us an abrasive scrub
to remove all the gunk and rust.
Simply take your potato slice and apply pressure
to the grates while using a scrubbing motion.
Make sure to angle the potato in various directions
and get in between those grates and hit all those
hard to reach areas.
It's a simple matter to reuse the salt
that has fallen through.
Just life the grate, gather it up and sprinkle it
right back on top.
When that's done, simply rinse your grate with water
and place it right back on the grill.
The side that we used the potato scrub on is much cleaner
than the side we used only the wire brush on.
Which would you prefer?
Got some old leftovers in the fridge?
You may have found that no matter how hard
you rinse and scrub the plastic container,
it still leaves residue behind.
How can you get rid of this?
Take your rinsed container outside and place it directly
into the sunlight.
Now grab a lemon and squeeze out an ample amount of juice
into the container.
It also helps to scrub the plastic a bit.
Put on a lid, give it a shake and flip it over.
Leave it in the sun for a few hours
and go about your normal business.
You can come back and give it a shake or two
while you check its progress,
but make to leave it out until the stains on the side
begin to disappear.
That's all there is to it.
After enough time your plastic should look as good as new.
Don't you hate when you're going to make
a delicious smoothie, but end up with
a not so delicious mess?
There's no need to toss this in the dishwasher.
Just pour a couple cups of water into the blender jar
and then add a little bit of dish soap.
Put the blender on low and fire it up
for about 15 seconds.
Let the soap foam up good and form a nice coat
on the inside.
When you're done, just rinse it with water
and you should have yourself a nice sparkling clean
blending system.
If you have a hard to tackle stain that the sponge
just isn't taking care of, it might be time to add
a little power to the equation.
Get yourself a small scrub brush, preferably circular
and break it down to its bristles and base.
Get a threaded rod and place it right through the center
of the brush.
Tighten it on both sides with a hex nut
until it's snug and secure.
Place your apparatus directly into the drill chuck
and secure it inside.
Now it's time to conquer that stubborn stain.
This will certainly work faster and more efficient
than good old fashioned elbow grease
while allowing you to get rid of stains
you thought you never could.
If you don't clean your oven's grease filters regularly,
you might be in for a shock, but don't fret,
there's no need for incessant scrubbing or stress.
Simply pop out the filters and place them directly
into the dishwasher.
You can run it with or without soap
and the grease and buildup will just melt away.
Once they're clean, pop 'em right back into place
and enjoy a nice clean filter to catch
all that gnarly cooking grease.
Removing paint from a paint brush can be difficult,
but it doesn't have to be.
Drop a cap full of fabric softener into a cup of warm water
and swirl your brush into the mixture
until you see the paint just falling off.
The paint will settle to the bottom
leaving behind a clean brush that just needs
a little bit of rinsing.
Dry your spring fresh brush out and reshape the bristles
so that you're ready for your next paint job.
Did your rockin new kicks go through a rough patch
with the backyard?
No problem.
Grab yourself some nail polish remover
and a cotton ball or two.
Soak the end of the cotton ball and scrub away at the stains
on your rubber soles.
The nail polish remover will help get rid of everything.
Just apply enough pressure to work out the discoloration
and you'll end up with a pair of shoes that look
as good as new, at least on the outside.
If you've got a serious dusting job ahead of you,
using a rag or old cloth might give the appearance
of cleanliness, but most of that dust
just gets spread around to another area.
Clorox recently asked us to promote their
Clorox Triple Action Dust Wipes
and to show our viewers how they can unleash the power.
Of course, I wanted to give them a real test
before recommending them to you,
so check this out.
This is my media center that I didn't dust
for four weeks in preparation.
It's filled with nooks, crannies and electronics.
I grabbed one wipe for the entire job
and because the wipes are nonabrasive,
they're safe for my TV screen, so I started there.
This was taken care of with ease and the interlocking weave
trapped all the dust inside the wipe.
In fact, these are safe to use on any electronics
and my gaming consoles definitely needed a face lift.
I was able to get deep into the nooks of the machine
and really give it an overdo shine.
So with one single wipe, I was able to conquer
this massive dust pit.
Look at the before and after.
