They used to carry it in supermarkets, however I haven't been able to find it anywhere. I used to use it all the time - then the stores stopped carrying it, so I looked up the phone number and they mailed it to me.

Now I am going to do the same again because I can't find it anymore. I was told that the NFL, sports teams and hospitals use it. It was the best stain remover I ever had. It also comes in different forms, for wools and silks, etc (a dry stain remover. I think I may approach other drugstores and groceries to carry it again.

It appears that the bags are a polyester shell/polyester fill across the board. The difference in construction for cold weather sleeping seems to be an increase in the amount of insulation, or fill.

To remove a linseed oil based paint from a porouse ceramic would require figuring out a way to soften the finish to make it soluble in something (like acetone). As I recall, linseed oil essentially cross-links during the curing process to create a hard, brittle, but of course, very durable finish. To get the material off of a porous ceramic material would require dissolution (rather than the typical way of softening then scraping) -- that is, the only way to remove the material from the pores is by dissolving the finish.

I would recommend one of the following: a simple paint remover, formulated for oil-based paints; gently heating the system when immersed in the paint remover using a double-boiler (of course, this would require some common sense -- an electric stove (absolutely no gas flames) and a well-ventilated area); possibly simply trying acetone (nail polish remover) and soaking the vase in the acetone and testing with a pin (or something like that) periodically to see if the finish is softening.

Some old paint books have information on linseed oil finishes that might give some insight. As you know, most of the time these finishes are on wood which can be particularly problematic for finish removal -- the wood is porous, frequently soft, and easy to damage. There are sucessful techniques for removal but I do not know details. If I get a chance, I will see if I can find some of my old paint books, but they may not be old enough. (What you are looking for would be handbooks from the 40s and 50s.

Another (less dangerous for the operator) approach may be to soak or even boil the item in water. This may cause the paint to lift away, whereas using solvents may drive stains into the porous pot.

Besides not sleeping with a lump in the middle of your back, fluffing out your sleeping bag increases the air space in between the stuffings fibers. This helps the bag hold heat and insulate your body better.

If out hunting, camouflage bedding can help reduce visibility of an otherwise obvious sleeping bag. It means there is no point when the hunter will be spotted by the prey. It also helps when carrying bedding during the hunt.

Waterproof layer spread under a sleeping bag in a tent?

The most common causes of blue staining on fiberglass bathroom fixtures depend on your source of household water. If you are on a municipal water supply, the stains will likely be limited to areas where the water drips, such as beneath the jets in a toilet bowl, or around the faucets and drains of the sink and tub. This is due to chlorine saturation in these spots. Municipalities treat their water with chlorine to disinfect it and keep it that way until it reaches the farthest customer. This chemical, when applied continuously to a particular surface through dripping or leaking, will leave a blue/green stain.

If you have a well that supplies your household water, blue/green staining will almost certainly be due to your water having a low pH factor. This makes the water slightly- to significantly corrosive to soft metals like copper piping. This corrosive action causes the copper to leach into the water, and it is then oxidized as it passes through the aerator in your faucet, depositing a copper oxide stain on the porcelain or fiberglass fixture. Improper grounding of the household electrical system can also cause this leaching, by electrolytic action.

Removal can be accomplished reasonably well and without too much effort using such products as CLR, The Works, or other similar tub/shower cleaners. If you stay on top of it, the cleaning is more like a weekly wipe-down, as these products do most of the work by chemical action. If you have low-pH well water, ask a water professional about getting an acid neutralizer installed to permanently stop the problem.

Rubbing alcohol all over the stain

Removing crayon that has melted into your carpet can be a tedious process. It starts by scraping any of the large chunks out with some type of scraping tool. Next you will want to use a cleaning solvent and absorbent rag. Be careful depending on the type of material the crayon is on, most cleaning processes can damage it permanently.

It would depend on the stain and how fast you can get to it. The faster you attend to a stain, the more likely you'll get it out. Also, each stain requires different stain removal processes... NO CLEANING PRODUCT is effective to ALL TYPES of stains.

Example is blood on carpet, you cannot use hot water otherwise you'll be setting the blood into the carpet.

Another example is grease stain, you need to use isopropyl alcohol first to remove the oils.

Important thing is not to rub the stain as it will just spread the stain.

Another Answer:

The difficulty in removing stains is subject dependant on the type of stain and how fast you can get to it. The faster you attend to a stain, the more likely you'll get it out. Also, each stain requires different stain removal processes... NO CLEANING PRODUCT is effective for ALL TYPES of stains. For example, if you try to remove a blood stain from carpet, you must use cold water otherwise you'll set the stain. Conversely, if you try to remove grease from carpet, heat is required in the stain removal process but your best to treat the stain first with isopropyl alcohol.

The simple rules when removing stains are:

1) Act quickly and remove as much of the excess as you can

2) Blot the stain with a clean white towel or paper cloth until there is no further transfer of the stain to the cloth

3) I recommend finding some professional stain removal instructions from here on. If you can't access any stain removal instructions, then sponge with half a litre of luke warm water and a few drops of dishwashing detergent. Blot with a clean cloth. Rinse by sponging on clean water and blot again, putting as much weight on the stain as possible for maximum absorption.

Well, it all begins by first not having yellow fever, which apparently led to your ill-conceived purchases of cheap-ass Chinese knock-off junk to begin with. Chances are, that sick smell can't be removed. And if you're eating off of it, you're probably poisoning yourself.
