Detailing SUV this week. What great products or tips do you have to make it look like a million dollars?
justme asked:
I have scrubbed the leather interior with a mixture of laundry detergent and water…it worked like a charm! Laundry detergent is made to break down body oil and the like…so it made a huge difference. I would like to finish off the interior of the car and need some great suggestions on conditioning the leather, cleaning the carpets and headliner, finishing off the interior, polishing the chrome on the exterior, detailing the engine, and waxing the exterior (and hopefully get rid of some of the oxidation of the black paint) and shine/condition the black rubber on the exterior…put your thinking caps on and let me know what you think!

UGH! Dog hair in carpet.and everywhere! What tips do you have?
Livin’ Life As Mama and Wife asked:
My husband’s dog nonstop SHEDS…she’s a short-haired dog, with black coarse hair (a Staffordshire Bull Terrier). Today I found her hair in the FRIDGE…so we had a heated discussion about what we’re going to do about it. (My husband does NOT care for his dog in that regards…doesn’t brush her, bathe her nor pick up her hair….I do it…and I’m quite ticked off about it)

We have berber carpet throughout most of the house and then plush in the bedrooms…linoleum in the kitchen and bathroom. BUT, I will vacuum…and then roller (lint catcher) brush the carpet and get dog hair. We have a Dirt Devil Vision…2 yrs old….new filter. I just can’t seem to get it all in the berber.
I thought maybe having our carpets steam cleaned? But does anyone have ANY tips for the dog hair!! I’m going nuts keeping this house hair-free.

Anyone have tips for using a REALLY old Rainbow Vacuum system?
J L asked:
I “inherited” a Rainbow Vac system from my grandmother, and she bought it in the FIFTIES! I’ve had it cleaned and repaired by a technician, and I’ve used it a few times to vacuum my carpets. The instructions say something about adding fragrance to the water basin, but I was wondering if it would be a good idea to add vinegar to the water? Vinegar is a great deodorizer, right, but might it hurt the components? Any tips on using your old Rainbow Vac system would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

How to get urine out of carpet?
PomeranianLuver asked:
I have an 11 month old Pomeranian.
I have an 11 month old Pomeranian.
He still goes to the bathroom in the house.
I have bought a “urine eliminator” spray from rug doctor. I also have a Rug doctor carpet cleaner machine. I also bought the plain carpet cleaner solution to go into the machine.
I have already cleaned the carpets once, and they still smell.
Any tips or similar situations?
Thank you!

hot iron laid down on berber carpet?
elamw asked:
Stupidly I was ironing on a towel sitting on floor and laid the iron down–no burnt discoloration–just sheen of outline of iron and rough spot feels burnt and catches lint, dirt, pet hair, etc.
Do I need to cut spot out and replace or anthing can “shave off” top burnt layer ??? Luckily can not tell when clean and not stepping on or touching…..
Other carpets have trimmed burnt tips in front of fireplace etc. but never encountered this before……..
