Article: For tough carpet or fabric stains, mix equal parts vinegar, table salt and Borax in a large bowl until a paste forms. Apply the paste directly to the stained area. Allow the paste to sit for several minutes before wiping it up with a clean towel. Rinse the area with water. Baking soda is a mild abrasive. Combined with vinegar’s acidic properties, the duo can effectively unclog kitchen drains. Pour ½ cup (125 g) of baking soda down the drain. Follow it up with a ½ cup (120 mL) of white vinegar. The combination of the two will create fizz. Once it stops fizzing, pour warm or hot water down the drain. Immerse a sponge in white vinegar, then wring out the excess liquid. Sprinkle table salt evenly over one side of the sponge. Gently scrub brass surfaces with the mixture. Rinse the area thoroughly with clean water, then dry it with a soft towel. Use this paste on silver, pewter, copper, or brass. Combine 1 teaspoon salt with 1 cup (240 mL) of vinegar. Add ¼ cup (30 g) of flour and stir until a paste forms. Apply the paste to the metal surface and let it sit for about 15 minutes. Rinse it off with warm water and then polish the surface with a clean cloth.
