There’s nothing like walking into a house that’s just been cleaned. Ahhhh….that clean, bright smell. In that regard, cleaning is therapeutic. Various cleaning tools offer different advantages – from sheer cleaning and scrubbing power, to sanitary qualities, to their ability to do specific jobs, such as picking up hair and lint. Well, when it comes to surfaces such as ceramic topped stoves, cleaning may be overlooked because they are such a pain to clean. Maybe it’s time to get serious about investing in the right tools to get the job done.
Tools That Make Cleaning Easier
1.Microfiber cleaning cloths.
These cloths are miracle workers. They make cleaning a snap and shine like nothing else. Tired of spraying gallons of window cleaner on your granite surfaces and using two rolls of paper towels to make them shine? Microfiber cleaning cloths shine and brighten granite, glass, chrome or metal, and work WONDERS on ceramic stovetops.
2.Cleaning cloths.
When it comes to dusting or overall cleaning, nothing can compare to a good quality cleaning cloth. No, your husband’s old undershirt is not the tool of choice for dusting. Besides that, who WANTS to clean with an old t-shirt? Old clothes are for the trash, not for cleaning. Purchase a set of 10 white dish or cleaning cloths to be used only for cleaning.
These should be used for three different distinct purposes:
1.General cleaning, such as windows, mirrors, and polishing metal
2.Furniture dusting and polishing
3.Scrubbing, such as counters, walls, floors, etc.
Now, to keep your interest in cleaning, make sure to keep your cloths clean by washing them regularly in HOT water. Having a clean cloth to begin with will keep you interested in cleaning and WON’T spread more dirt and grime around.
4.Electrostatic mopping/dusting cloths.
Do yourself a favor and follow vacuuming with an electrostatic mop! It does an amazing job.
5.Baby wipes.
No, these versatile cleaning cloths are great from removing everything from eye make-up to messy faces.
6.Paper towels.
Cleaning toilets is a nasty job, but one of the most important when it comes to having a clean house. Keep a spray cleaner such as 409 or Pine Sol in a cabinet close to the toilet with a roll of paper towels to clean when needed. Use the paper towels to clean the seat and outside of the bowl. Ick.
7.Toothbrush.
Keep a toothbrush around to clean corners of grout, stained tops of woodwork, or any nook and cranny that needs a scrubbing.
8.Wastebasket liners.
Keeping trash cans lined is another “clean” idea that keeps can nice and clean.
9.Telescoping duster.
Get a telescoping duster to help you reach into high corners, dust chandeliers, or tops of bookcases.
10. The Right Paint.
Strange as it seems, paint can be your best friend when it comes to cleaning. If you have flat paint on your walls, you will have a very difficult time cleaning your walls of fingerprints and other stains. Your painter may kick and scream, but the next time it comes to paint a room, choose egg shel or other paint finish that can be cleaned.
11.Brush for scrubbing.
12.Squeegees.
These are essential for cleaning windows. Yes, windows. You’ve got to clean them, too. A squeegee will help you clean windows without having to wipe everything completely dry or use up fifty rolls of paper towels. Use a cleaning cloth to wipe any excess liquid.
13.Tall broom & mop.
Mops and brooms are often too short for you to really apply adequate pressure for cleaning. Select brooms and mops from janitorial supply stores or home improvement centers, like Lowe’s, to find brooms that are heavy-duty and industrial-sized.
A. The Ultimate Design For The Single Woman
You don't get to forty years of age without your fair share of disastrous relationships - and I've had more than my fair share. There was the time the cat died and I had to bury her myself. Picking up the cold, stiff body of something I loved so dearly should have been a man's department (or a man!).
Last night's incident involving a cork screw and a corked bottle of wine just tipped me over the edge and I feel the need to act. I believe a new design is called for. One that doesn't scratch, moan, snore, grow a beer belly and demand full power over the remote control.
I have contacted a company that can help with my new product design. At our first consultation, we sit and discuss my idea, formulating a design that my consultants believe we can eventually patent and mass produce with industrial design adaptations.
A 3D image first produced needs a little work, I have to say. A little larger across the chest please, a little leaner in the leg please. The company eventually produce a product design a little closer to what I have in mind. It looks like a man and will be programmable for all the jobs a man can do without the socks to wash and the random toenails left in the carpet.
The company manufacture my new model from metalwork. All he needs is the occasional oil and wipe with a soft cloth, none of this meat and two veg business. Firstly my product design, and I will be calling him Gerald from now on, will be programmed with a few key phrases. What else do I need?
General daily activities are programmed into Gerald, bin days, wash day, ironing etc. Also essential is the necessary inbuilt toolbox for car maintenance. Next is the added extras: the electronic corkscrew on the hand, spare sockets in the chest for extreme ironing anywhere in the house and the extra padding that can be applied to the hands for foot massaging.
B. Career Fields That Use AutoCAD
So you are the master of AutoCAD, you know it front to back, you know it like the palm of your hand, you could use it hung upside-down blind folded and with one hand. I wrote an article about Earning Money with AutoCAD, but what if you want a career? Industrial design is more about improving a product for mass production. Although you might think that you don't need AutoCAD for industrial design, you would be wrong.
(Sorry) Architecture is such a broad term, but CAD is defiantly used for the layout of buildings in architecture, whether it is a house or an office. The designing of houses and house layouts is a field that interests me and I suggest you check it out as well because it is really fun designing a custom house for everyone to see and hopefully buy.
The last field I will look at is Engineering. Engineering is another broad term. There are many types of engineering, such as electrical, architectural, civil. Engineering deals more with the actual forces on different types of materials or structures. This field would probably not use AutoCAD as much, but the other programs run on the same concept so it is a great start.
Just to recap, the three main career field you could look in are Industrial Design, Architecture, and Engineering.I really wanted to address students who do not know what they would like to do as a career yet but have skills in AutoCAD.
