Cleaning Stainless Steel????

Justie

baby oil.... apparently. Not sure if other oil would do the same but probably.

baby oil on a damp cloth rub over and then use a dry cloth to buff it up,you only need a tiny drop of oil though,mine comes up supershiny

The waterproofing spray used on car electrics WD40 works as well.

Spray it on and buff off with newspaper.

I do mine with babyoil too.

Babyoil for me too (it's very cheap) and then buff with a clean, dry tea-towel. Obviouisly only when I'm in domestic goddess mode, so about twice a year.

WD40 (or the cheaper version 151 maintainence spray) is what I use.

My job takes me into peoples houses to read their meters and I go into about 175-200 houses a day and about half of them have a resident dog.
At the end of my working day I smell like 50 dogs from my knees down and sometimes it can be quite overpowering in the car on the drive home.

My question is this, how do I get rid of or even just reduce the smell without resorting to a clean pair of trousers every day.
I am looking for any suggestions rather than all the extra loads in my washing machine.

Other than washing them, I really can't think of anything which is going to disguise/reduce the smell.

Personally, I'd rather be washing the trousers anyway and not just from the aspect of the doggie smell ... if I were going into 175-200 different houses each day I'd *want* to put on fresh clothes daily

5 pairs of trousers wouldn't equal any more than one washload per week anyway. If you only have say two pairs of work trousers then it would be a case of a quick handwash and overnight drip dry. If you wear a uniform, then perhaps you could ask for more trousers to get you through the week, explaining the practicalities of having to wash them in quick turnaround?

Not a very moneysaving answer, but what about that Febreeze stuff you spray onto household fabrics?

Think I read somewhere that there's something in Fabreeze that can upset animals (?) If that's so, it might not be wise to wear fabreeze coated clothing into other people's houses that have pets
