Q: Spray a small amount of alcohol- based hairspray on an inconspicuous area of the linoleum surface and let it sit for several minutes. If the linoleum looks unchanged, go ahead and use the hairspray to tackle the hair dye stain. Make sure to use alcohol-based hairspray, as the alcohol is the agent that will work to lift the stain. Alcohol is typically an ingredient in cheaper brands of hairspray. Hold the bottle of hairspray about a foot (30.48 cm) from the stain and spray thoroughly so that the stain is wet with hairspray but not soaked. Let the hairspray sit on the stain for several minutes. Use a clean cloth to dab at the stain using patting motions. Dab until the stain is completely lifted or until dabbing no longer has any effect. Wet a clean towel with water and wipe at the stain to remove any excess hairspray.
A: Spot test hairspray. Spray the hairspray over the stain. Dab at the hairspray with a clean cloth. Clean the excess hairspray.

Article: Removing all the paint and rust from a fence is a dirty job. Keep your property clean by laying out a sheet or drop cloth to catch falling debris. Cover your grass, porch, sidewalk, and any other areas that might get dirty during the job.  Try to avoid doing this job in windy weather to reduce the mess. Scraping, sanding, and priming is a long process. Start early in the morning and plan on working all day. The process may take into a second day, depending on how large the fence is. Paint and rust shards can irritate your skin, throat, and eyes. Protect yourself with the proper equipment before starting. Cover your eyes with goggles and put on a dust mask. Wear gloves to prevent cuts and irritation.  Also cover all of your exposed skin with long sleeves and pants to prevent irritations from paint shards. All the necessary protective gear is available at hardware stores or online. If you order from the internet, make sure you can return the items if they don't fit. Any leftover paint or rust on the iron will prevent a new coat of paint from sticking properly. Take a metal scraper and rub all the flat sections of the fence. Scrape back and forth until the paint and rust comes off.  Don’t miss any spots. Scrub all the spots you can reach with the scraper before moving on. This step only removes flaking rust and metal, it doesn’t smooth out the iron surface. Don’t worry if the iron is still rough after scraping it. Many fences have designs and a flat metal scraper won’t be able to reach into rounded or curved areas like these. Take a wire brush and scrub all the areas you couldn’t reach with the scraper. Rub back and forth to flake off any paint and rust.  Don’t miss any spots. Any paint or rust you leave behind will damage your new coat of paint. Be thorough and reach every spot with the brush. If there are still tough rust spots that won’t come off, try using a powered grinder to remove them. This uses a spinning stone to grind away rust. Wear gloves and goggles if you use this tool, and hold it against any rusty spots until they're smooth. You can buy or rent a powered grinder from a hardware store. Sanding smooths the iron out in preparation for a fresh coat of paint. Use a 150-grit paper or sanding sponge and sand the whole surface. Use a steady, back and forth motion to grind down and rough spots.  Remember to get into any grooves and curved areas. Don’t miss any spots. Don’t remove your protective gear when you sand. The dust can still irritate your eyes and skin. Sanding is a time-consuming process. Be patient and don’t rush. Pour mineral spirits into a rag and rub it over the whole fence. Don’t worry about scrubbing hard. The rag should pick up any residue. Re-wet the rag if you have to, especially if you’re working on a large piece of iron.  Mineral spirits are a relatively safe solvent, but they can still irritate your skin. Wear gloves and if you get any on your skin, flush the area under running water for 5 minutes.  Mineral spirits are available at most hardware stores. Don’t clean the iron with water. This will cause rust.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Spread a sheet or drop cloth around the fence. Put on gloves, a dust mask, and goggles. Scrape flat surfaces with a metal scraper to remove paint and rust. Rub curved areas with a wire brush. Sand the fence with 150-grit sandpaper. Rub the fence with mineral spirits to remove any remaining dust.

Q: Show respect for the celebrity by keeping your letter to about a page in length. Since they’re busy people, and likely have a lot of fan mail, a page is the perfect length for them to read quickly.  Remember, if you do write a longer letter, it’s unlikely that the celebrity will read more than the first page. If you’re sending the letter through social media, be aware of length constraints. For example, if you plan to tweet at a celebrity on Twitter, keep your message under the 280 character limit! Start by writing 2 or 3 sentences about yourself, including your name, where you’re from, and how old you are. Talk about how you first heard about them, and what kind of impact they’ve had on your life.  Don’t be afraid to tell a short story about how you first encountered their work. It’s okay to make it a little personal! If you’re writing to Britney Spears, you might say something like “My name is Kate, and I’m 19 years old. I’ve been a huge fan of yours ever since I heard your song ‘Oops, I Did It Again’ on the radio when I was a kid!” Be as specific as possible when writing your fan letter. Tell them why that specific book, show, or movie is your favorite, and mention your favorite line or scene. Talk about how it has shaped you as a person.  This helps to make a connection with the celebrity and might make them more likely to respond to your letter. For example, if you were writing to J.K. Rowling, you might say, “I loved The Goblet of Fire because it really showed me what it means to be brave in the face of impossible challenges.” If you’re writing to get an autograph, don’t be afraid to ask for one! Simply be gracious about it, by saying something like, “It would mean the world to me if you could send me an autograph.”  Keep in mind that there’s no guarantee that you’ll get anything back from the celebrity, but there’s also no harm in asking. It’s important to be kind to the celebrity in your letter, and express your happiness to get a chance to communicate with them. Say something like, “Thanks so much for taking the time to read my letter,” or “I wish you well in your next project!” You can even ask a thought-provoking question to encourage them to respond! This will show the celebrity that you’re not just looking to get an autograph from them, but that you really care about them.
A:
Keep your letter short and to the point. Introduce yourself to the celebrity. Mention your favorite book, movie, or show of theirs. Ask them for an autograph politely if you’re mailing a letter. Thank them and wish them well.
