5 "Spring Cleaning" tips

Steam Cleaning the Carpets: If you are really in the mood for spring cleaning, a deep cleaning of your carpets makes a huge visible impact and helps get rid of germs and pet dander in the carpets creating a healthier environment.  
For carpets and upholstery mix 1 cup Quick n Brite liquid to 5 gallons of water in self contained units, orSteam Cleaning Carpets 2/3 cup to 1 gallon for units that attach to the faucet. Do not add a defoamer or spot remover. For bad stains, apply Quick n Brite paste full strength or spray heavysolution on stains and let sit for a few minutes allowing Quick n Brite to go deep down into the stain. Then begin your steam cleaning or shampoo process following machine instructions. WHEN CLEANING CARPETS, FOLLOW MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS. SPOT CHECK FOR COLOR-FAST FIRST. 


Cleaning Fireplace BrickClean your Fireplace Brick: For some people cleaning soot and creosote from your fireplace brick and glass is a chore, if you have Quick n Brite, this job is a breeze!
Apply QB paste or liquid full strength with a very wet stiff brush, or a wet scrub sponge on glass. Work in a slow circular motion. Spray with clear water to rinse and wipe with a terry cloth. Quick n Brite will remove smoke, soot, creosote and pitch. For extremely bad areas, repeat the process, if necessary.


Outdoor Windows
Outdoor Windows: Throw away the old squeegee, don't worry about towels to dry the windows and put away the gloves. You can clean your outdoor windows in half the amount of time and effort with Quick n Brite. Choose a cool morning when the sunlight isn't directly on your windows.
Using a garden hose, wet your outdoor windows. Apply Quick n Brite heavy solution with a wet sponge or pole brush then simply hose your windows off. Water will sheet dry from windows with no streaking, no squeegee and no drying.



Leather Couch CleaningClean your couch cushions: This is one of those jobs that you rarely think about doing, but once it's done, you can notice a huge difference! If you have removable fabric on the cushions of your couch you can wash them in the washing machine using a 1/4 cup of Quick n Brite. If the fabric is not removable follow the directions below.
Apply Quick n Brite heavy solution using a terry cloth in a slow circular motion, giving cleaner time to emulsify dirt and grime. If you have a hand held steam cleaning machine, run the Quick n Brite heavy solution through the machine then wipe dry with a clean terry cloth. D0 NOT USE 0N RAW LEATHER OR SUEDE. AS WITH ANY FABRIC, ALWAYS TEST FOR COLOR-FAST AND FOLLOW MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS.

House SidingCleaning your house siding: This is another great project to tackle when the weather is nice in the springtime and really helps prolong the life of your siding. Quick n Brite is safe on any siding surface such as vinyl, wood, brick, stucco, or stone and will safely and quickly remove moss, weathering, dirt and build up.
Using a garden hose wet the surface of your house and apply Quick n Brite heavy solution with a brush or scrub sponge. For a heavy build-up, let it sit for about 5 minutes, brush, and hose off.

How to Remove Candle Wax from Carpets, Clothing, Upholstery and Hard Surfaces

Let's face it, at one point in time most of us have spilled candle wax on carpets, counters, clothing, hardwood floors or more. Depending on the size of the spill, color of the wax and what surface it has been spilled on, removing candle wax can be quite the difficult chore! We will cover a few common areas candle wax is spilled for this post and show you the easiest and fastest ways to clean them with Quick 'n Brite.
HOW TO REMOVE CANDLE WAX ON CARPETS AND FABRICS
Candle Wax on carpets, clothing and upholstery is probably the most difficult area to clean and there are 2 methods to cleaning candle wax depending on how much is spilled and the color of the wax.

1. First, apply Quick 'n Brite paste full strength using a wet terry cloth towel to the spot and rub back and forth in short 5 to 6 inch strokes. 

2. Let the Quick 'n Brite sit for 10 minutes if it is not instantly removed. 

3. Using a fork, knife or comb scratch the spot lightly towards the center removing as much wax residue as possible. 

4. Using a dry terry cloth towel, buff out the remaining stain. 

5. At this point, if there is still a stained area repeat the process once more. If you are not successful in removing all the wax stains, go onto Step 6.

For most people, the stain will be lifted after steps 1-5, if there is a large amount of wax or the wax is a dark color like red or blue some people find the iron-transfer method to work best. 

6. Lay a brown paper bag over the remaining wax spot (it will work better if area is still damp from Quick 'n Brite, so don't worry) 

7. Using an iron set on low heat move the iron slowly back and forth over top of the brown paper bag. The heat will cause the wax to melt and the paper bag will absorb the remaining wax. 

8. Keep ironing over a clean piece of bag until the spot has been fully absorbed. 

CANDLE WAX ON COUNTERS, HARDWOODS OR OTHER HARD SURFACES
For the most part, candle wax can be removed easier from hard surfaces as opposed to carpets and fabric. 
1. First, scrape off as much wax as possible being careful not to scratch your surface.

2. Then using a wet non-abrasive sponge apply Quick 'n Brite paste full strength and rub back and forth in a short 5 to 6 inch motion

3. Wipe area clean with a damp terry cloth towel
