Bounce and Coca-Cola Tips
Bounce and Coca-Cola Tips
BOUNCE....the stuff you use in your dryer:
- Repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop when outdoors during mosquito season.
- Eliminates static electricity from your television screen. Since Bounce is designed to help eliminate static cling, wipe your television screen with a used sheet of Bounce to keep dust from resettling.
- Dissolves soap scum from shower doors. Clean with a used sheet of Bounce.
- Freshness the air in your home. Place an individual sheet of Bounce in a drawer or hang one in the closet.
- Prevents thread from tangling. Run a threaded needle through a sheet of Bounce to eliminate the static cling on the thread before sewing.
- Eliminates static cling from pantyhose. Rub a damp, used sheet of Bounce over the hose.
- Prevents musty suitcases. Place an individual sheet of Bounce inside empty luggage before storing.
- Freshens the air in your car. Place a sheet of Bounce under the front seat.
- Cleans baked-on food from a cooking pan. Put a sheet in the pan, fill with water, let sit overnight,and sponge clean. The anti-static agents apparently weaken the bond between the food and the pan while the fabric softening agents soften the baked-on food.
- Place a sheet of Bounce at the bottom of the wastebasket.
- Collects cat hair. Rubbing the area with a sheet of Bounce will magnetically attract all the loose hairs.
- Wipe the blinds with a sheet of Bounce to prevent dust from resettling.
- Outside a Muffler Shop: "No appointment necessary, we hear you coming."
- Outside a Hotel: "Help! We need inn-experienced people."
- On a desk in a reception room: "We shoot every 3rd salesman, and the 2nd one just left."
- Eliminates odors in dirty laundry. Place an individual sheet of Bounce at the bottom of a laundry bag or hamper.
- At the Electric Company: "We would be de-lighted if you send in your bill. However, if you don't you will be."
- Deodorizes shoes or sneakers. Place a sheet of Bounce in your shoes or sneakers overnight so they'll smell great in the morning.
Coca Cola...hmmmm!
- To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl. Let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.
- To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a crumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca Cola.
- To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.
- To loosen a rusted bolt: Applying a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
- To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan; wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before the ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.
- To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains.
- It will also clean road haze from your windshield.
