I believe if you wash your floors good in dishwashing detergent in warm water and rinse in a good amount of warm water with a 1/4 cup of vinegar they will be clean of streaks, but may need a waxing yearly.

A little lemon juice will do the trick.

Thanks for the photograph. Back when I had some good copper bottom pans I did this to keep them shinning.

I must print this off Justi. Sometimes it is nice to use older remedies. Thank you dear.

Before and after ketchup:

  

It did help, but now I can't get the smell of ketchup off of my hands.  LOL

Great tips! Thanks for sharing! I do use baking soda, vinegar and salt a lot when I am cleaning! sam

Well, I'd never heard about the ketchup before.  I'm going to try that on something, and so you'll also see whether or not it works, I'm going to take a before and after picture.

When you are ready we will meet and discuss my percentage for using my name. LOL

I am going to mix all of these things into a bottle, shake the daylights out of it and if they don't clean each other up, or explode, I will market as a supper cleaner, metal polish, stain and stink remove. I will name it Justi's revenge. On a serious note, thanks for the hints.

of course

You can polish gun stocks with the mayo. If the strawberry jam is still sealed add vinegar and a few other ingredients, cook strain and make strawberry catsup. LOL

At that rate I'm gonna clean out my whole pantry! But I have some old mayo sitting around, and some very ancient strawberry jam that was hiding in a dark corner - any use for those?
