HOUSEHOLD
HINTS
To Clean Paint


First OF all. notice whether the
paint is vanished or not, for each
requires a different treatment. If
the paint is vanished, put two
tablespoontuls Of powdered borax
in a large basin; pour half a pint
of boiling water over it, and when
1t has dissolved add one and
half pints of cold water. Provide
yourself with buster, an old
toothbrush, a piece Of sponge, a
soft linen cloth, some furniture
cream and q polishing cloth.
Brush all dust out of the crevices
with the toothbrush and wipe the
paint with the buster to remove
the loose dust. Then with the
sponge wash the paint with the
borax water, beginning at the bot
tom. on a large piece such as a
door. By working upward the
water will be prevented from run
ming into streaks and marking the
paint. As each piece is washed,
dry it gently with the cloth.
Lastly, apply little furniture
cream, and gently polish it.
To remove great stains from
wicker furniture, rub with a cloth
dipped in methylated spirit.
