Answer: Removing Candle Wax from a Wall. Try holding a steam iron a few inches from the wall with wax and shoot the steam on the wall (don't touch the iron to the wall). As the was starts to melt, wipe it with a towel; continue the process until all the wax is removed,. This worked for me -- Foggy foggynospamd@earthnsplink.net 14/08/2005

Answer: What is a GUID?. I came across this definition the other day: Many advertisers and marketers assign each person A global unique identifier to track, monitor and gather unique information on the user. When a person downloads and installs freeware or shareware programs that are Ad supported they are assigned a GUID and this information is then supplied to the Adware firm or firms that sponsor freeware/shareware developer financially. In many cases users are unaware that 3rd party software is also being installed or that any information will be gathered about them and possibly sold. -- anonymous1187@qznaznospam.com 17th April 2005

Question: Artexed Ceiling. We have some poorly applied Artex on our ceiling and need to remove it. Are there some solvents that can soften it or must we sand it off? -- Randy Smyth RSM@kapta.com 21st May(Ref:1090)
Answer: Artex removal. You can remove it yourself with a preparation available from some DIY outlets, it is called X-Tex and you apply it, allow it to soak in and then scrape it off. Please note that some older Artex contains Asbestos so it is always a good idea to get a sample checked out by your local council. Ray Watkinson Canterbury England. Caution with this material and under no circumstances should it be sanded off without a check to see if it contains asbestos. Asbestos is a deadly substance which can in most people cause an incurable cancer called Mesothelioma -- Ed

St. Clair Shores, MI 48080Question: Grass Stain. My mom and I were walking my dog at the park tonight and she fell in a hole and got grass stain on her denim capris. Does Cascade and Lava soap work on denim too? And/or do you have any other ideas of how to get grass stains out of denim? Thank you for your time and have a great weekend! -- gloriam@charter.net 29/05/2005 (Ref:1101)
Answer: Grass Stain: Try Cascade or similar dry dishwasher soap. When my sons played sports I learned this and it worked every time. I even use it on my bathtub. It seems to have lost is sparkle or that clear coating that makes it easy to clean. When I use Cascade it gets cleaner and in 1/2 the time. Also Lave hand soap work well too. On grout in the tub and clothing stains but rinse it out so it doesn't lighten clothing. Good luck! Chris
