Use an old toothbrush to remove grease, lint, and dirt from all surfaces of your knife. Try applying a bit of dish soap to the toothbrush and then use it to scrub all of the surfaces of your knife. For small, detailed areas, you can use a wooden toothpick or a cotton tipped swab (Q-Tip). Rinse away the soap after you are finished and then dry the knife with a clean cloth. A magic eraser cleaning sponge may help to remove rust from your knife blade. You do not need to use any chemicals with a magic eraser. Just get it wet with a bit of water and it is ready to use. Use the magic eraser to scrub the rust spots off of your knife blade. Then, rinse off the blade and dry it with a clean cloth. You can also try to scrub the rust stains from the blade using a piece of fine steel wool, fine-grit sandpaper, or a wire brush. You can scrub the blade while it is dry, or add a bit of water, or use some water and dish soap. If you do not have a steel brush or sandpaper, try using a crumpled ball of aluminum foil to scrub the blade. Make sure that you rinse the blade after you are finished and dry it off with a clean cloth. If you cannot remove the rust with oil or cleansers alone, try using an electric rotary tool to remove the stains. Work slowly and carefully to avoid damaging the blade. Apply oil to the rusted blade before you use the rotary blade. Use a fine brass wire brush attachment on your rotary tool to remove surface rust. Secure the knife in a vice grip, and apply the wire brush tool to the blade in short, smooth movements. Change the brush attachment to a felt polishing wheel. Dip the wheel in polishing compound (such as 3-In-One, Clean Streak, or Metal Brite) and apply the wheel to the blade with smooth, short strokes. Switch to a clean polishing blade and finish with a paste polish such as Flintz. Buff the blade until it is smooth and shiny.

Summary: Scrub the knife with a toothbrush. Try a magic eraser sponge. Use some steel wool or another abrasive tool. Clean the knife with a rotary tool to remove serious rust stains.

There are several reigning positions on the origins of being gay, of which two factions are most prominent: genetic/biological roots vs. psychological/environmental roots. Still, as of today, scientists cannot clearly distinguish what causes one to be gay. Being gay is not a disease, and, therefore, there is no "cure". Many people wrongly assume that curing gay people of their sexual urges can make them straight. In fact, it is not a cure that is needed, but greater social awareness and acceptance for gay people. Find some insightful statistics or gay discrimination videos and share them with your homophobic friend. For many decades, gay and lesbian couples have faced strong opposition from society, public policy, and religion. Gay and bisexual individuals are the target of verbal harassment, abuse, and even violence, in some cases.

Further educating your friends about LGBT issues can help them to come to understand gays, lesbians, and bisexuals, and reduce their negative feelings towards these individuals. Visit reputable websites or blogs that give provide a more thorough anti-homophobic understanding of sexuality. Popular culture can be a great vehicle to becoming more accepting of gay people and reducing others' fear or discomfort. Sit down with a friend or loved one and watch a TV show that depicts characters who are openly gay. After the show goes off, ask your friend if they see any similarities between themselves and these characters? Aren't they "normal" people with normal goals and desires? These characters can make them cry, laugh, or squeal with excitement just like any of the heterosexual characters, right? Check out these links to find some series and films about gay people. Every person has a trait or characteristic that could be deemed "different" by someone else in society. Maybe someone is shy. Or, they are an ethnic minority, or does not practice a religion. In some ways, these traits may cause anyone to feel isolated or singled-out.

Summary: Educate that there is no clear cause for being gay. Spread the word about the role of discrimination and prejudice. Share articles, blogs, and essays to learn more. Watch TV shows and movies together. Tell your peers to think about all the ways they are different. Challenge homophobes to get to know a gay person.
