    My friens is moving into a rented house and there is this potentially beautiful UNIT which is ingrained with muck and dry. What is the best way to bring it back to life and then keep it looking good

    I sprinkle salt over it then halve a lemon rub the lemon in circular movements over the salt. Repeat process until desired result. Comes up a treat.

    No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thought.
    Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten.

  • Bicarb will work if you have no salt ;)

    As this has fallen from the front page of OS, I'll add it to the existing thread to keep ideas together.
