1.) Naturally make your grill non stick with 1/2 of an onion.

2.) Use rubbing alcohol to remove stains from microfiber.
Need: 1 white sponge and 1 white bristle scrubber
           rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle

 

 

To Do: SATURATE the stained area 

            Take your sponge and start scrubbing the area hard.

            Let the sprayed areas dry after you are done scrubbing

           Once the couch is COMPLETELY dry, use the bristle brush make swirling motions to refluff 

           the areas you cleaned.

Conclusion: FACT Your microfiber couch or chair will look good as new!

 3.) Get hard water stains off of your tub faucet.

 This one was super easy. All you do is rub a 1/2 of a lemon over your facet in a scrubbing like motion until water stains are gone.

Conclusion: FACT!

 

 

4.) Clean windows with newspaper for no streaks.

Wad up a ball of newspaper like you would paper towels and use that to wipe up the windex you spray onto the window.

This leaves your windows and mirrors streak free and spotless (and you save money on paper towels)

Conclusion: FACT.

 

 

5.) Get marker off of your wood floors.

Put a dab of white toothpaste on the marker.

Then rub like a mad woman with a damp washcloth or microfiber cloth.

Conclusion: Surprisingly enough....FACT

 

I must say this was a VERY successful Myth Busting segment. Have you ever tried any of these methods before? Are there any other myths that you want busted?!
