Problem: Article: A self-leveling agent is a powder that can level an uneven surface when it’s mixed with water. The exact amount of self-leveling agent you need depends on the size of the floor you're leveling. Quick-drying leveling agents dry a lot faster than regular leveling agents, so they're a good option if you need to get the floor done quickly. However, they don't leave a lot of room for error because of how fast they dry. If you're new to using self-leveling agents, you may want to go with one that has a longer drying time. To determine how much self-leveling agent you need, start by calculating the floor's square footage. Then, check the label on the self-leveling agent you want to buy to see the number of square feet it covers. Finally, divide the floor's square footage by the number of square feet listed on the self-leveling agent to get the number of bags you'll need.  For example, if the floor's square footage is 100, and the self-leveling agent covers 25 square feet, you would need 4 bags. Get more self-leveling agent than you think you need so you don't accidentally run out. Before you apply a self-leveling agent, it’s important that your basement floor is free of any furniture, appliances, and debris. Once everything is cleared off your basement floor, vacuum and mop the floor to get rid of any dirt and dust. Measure any doorways or other parts of the basement you don't want the self-leveling agent to spread into. Then, cut strips of wood that will fit in these spots. The strips of wood should be at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) tall so none of the leveling agent goes over them. Use duct tape to secure the strips of wood in place. When you’re finished leveling the floor and it’s hardened, you'll be able to easily remove the strips of wood. First, pour the water into the bucket — read the instructions that came with your self-leveling agent for exactly how much water to use. Then, pour in the self-leveling agent. Use a cement mixer to mix the powder and water together until the powder is fully dissolved. You can find a cement mixer online or at your local home improvement center. Start pouring at the furthest point from the exit — that way you won’t have to walk through the self-leveling agent as you work. If you run out of liquid to pour, you’ll need to mix another bucket and then continue covering the floor. You want the layer of self-leveling agent to be thick enough that it covers the highest point on the floor. If you need to walk through the self-leveling agent, wear cleats so you’re only leaving tiny holes behind with each step. The leveling agent will spread out to fill in the holes. The leveling agent should be thin enough to spread out on its own, but you may need to help it reach the edges and corners of the room. Use the squeegee or trowel to push the leveling agent in the direction you want it to spread. When you’re finished, look around and make sure the entire floor is covered with leveling agent. The amount of time it will take the leveling agent to dry depends on what kind you used. If you used regular self-leveling agent, it can take 1-3 days for the floor to fully dry. If you used a quick-drying leveling agent, your floor may be dry after several hours. To test if the leveling agent is dry, try standing on it. If your feet leave any kind of depression in the floor, it’s not dry enough yet.
Summary: Buy a self-leveling agent from your local home improvement store. Choose a quick-drying leveling agent if you're in a rush to get the floor done. Get enough self-leveling agent to cover the entire floor. Clear off and clean your basement floor. Block areas you don’t want leveling agent to go into with strips of wood. Mix the self-leveling agent and water in a large bucket. Pour the self-leveling agent over the floor. Use a squeegee or trowel to spread around the self-leveling agent. Let the self-leveling agent fully dry.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Different stainless steel watches require different bracelet detachment methods.  Some will need only a simple click of a button to detach their bracelet from their watch head.  Others will need a specialized screwdriver to release the bracelet from the watch head.  Consult manufacturer directions for more information about how to remove the watch from the bracelet. Submerge it in a small bowl filled with soapy water or rubbing alcohol.  Soaking your watch bracelet in this way will loosen the grit and grime that it has accumulated.  The length of time you allow your watch to soak depends on how grimy it is.  If it is quite dirty, leave it submerged for a few hours. If it is not too dirty, leave it submerged for about 30 minutes. If your watch’s head doesn’t detach from the bracelet, wrap paper towel or plastic wrap around it, and bind it in place with string or a rubber band.  Alternately, take your watch to a jeweler for a professional cleaning. Dip a soft-bristled toothbrush in rubbing alcohol or soapy water.  Remove your bracelet from the liquid and use the toothbrush to gently scrub away discoloration or dirt that has collected within the gaps of the watch band. Some chemical cleaners contain benzene or similar substances that can ruin stainless steel.  They might also cause skin irritation, even when they’ve been cleaned off.  Therefore, stick to soapy water or rubbing alcohol when cleaning your stainless steel watch.

SUMMARY: Remove the watch from the bracelet. Soak your watch bracelet. Scrub between the links of the bracelet. Do not use chemicals when cleaning your watch.

Some programs, such as Microsoft Word, also include a grammar check that you should use. Proofread your letter yourself. Do not rely on the spelling and grammar checks to catch mistakes. Consider asking a friend, or even two, to proofread your letter as well. If no one is available to help, another good strategy is to spend some time away from your final draft (a few hours or even a whole day) so that you can return to it with a fresh perspective.
