Article: These will scratch and ruin the gel-coat surface of the fiberglass. Even though your stains may be deep, harsh brushes are not the best solution to get rid of the stains. Don't use steel wool, scrapers, or scouring pads, either. These cleaning tools are also too harsh for fiberglass surfaces. Make sure the brush has plenty of give against the fiberglass surface. Fiberglass can be scratched easily, so be especially gentle even with tough stains. Try using a circular motion when scrubbing fiberglass surfaces. This will ensure you don't damage the fiberglass underneath. For tougher stains, you can use a heavier cloth. However, it should still be soft enough to prevent damage. Sponges may be good if you need to let your cleaner sit for a while. Use a soft sponge without any abrasive surfaces. It may be especially useful to use a sponge when using baking soda paste. When using baking powder paste, the cleaner needs to sit awhile before you mix it with vinegar. The sponge can soak up the cleaner from the fiberglass surface. It can also wipe stains from the fiberglass surface. Use a clean cloth and be especially gentle when applying the polish. Ideally, the polish should leave your fiberglass surface with a clean, white sheen. Only apply the white polish compound with a soft cloth after cleaning the fiberglass. The polish should be the final step in your cleaning procedure. Use the white polishing compound a few times a year to keep the fiberglass sparkling. The polish should be applied when the boat has been out a few times or has sat for a while.

Avoid using scouring brushes or wire brushes when regularly cleaning fiberglass. Gently rub your fiberglass cleaner on with a cloth or soft nylon brush. Use a sponge for especially difficult stains. Apply white polishing compound to your boat with a soft cloth.
Article: Kangkong can grow in a pot of water. You can choose as large a pot as you want. However, keep in mind that you need to be able to reach to the middle of the pot to harvest your plants, so keep it under 45 feet (1.21.5m). You'll also want to be able to inspect your plants for diseases, so make sure the pot is small enough for that purpose. This mesh will hold the cuttings just under the water. That way, they won't sink to the bottom, but they'll still get plenty of water. You can find steel mesh online or at home improvement stores. You'll need enough to stretch across your pot, so measure ahead of time. If your mesh is fine enough, you can actually germinate the seeds on top of the mesh. However, if it's not very fine, you'll need to use cuttings. This variety grows best in aquatic situations like a large pot or basin. You might also find it under the name "water ipomea." The other variety, Ching Quat, can also be grown in water, but it can be planted in a garden, as well. Before putting them in your main growing pot, grow the roots in a cup or pitcher of water. That way, they'll start out happier and healthier in your large pot. Your roots should have about 9 days of growth on them. Set the cuttings in the top of the container. You can prop the cuttings up against each other or even lightly tie a piece of string around them. Eventually, they will stand up on their own when their roots start sinking into the mesh below. Make sure the leaves are above the surface. Since you're not growing this plant in the soil, you'll need to provide nutrients. Select a fertilizer that is high in nitrogen. Use about 2 tablespoons (30mL) of the garden fertilizer per gallon of water in the container. If you're not using liquid fertilizer, mix the fertilizer with a little water before pouring it into the container.

Choose a large pot or basin for your kangkong. Set a steel mesh into the top of the pot. Pick the Pak Quat or "white stem" variety for your basin. Wait until your cuttings have well-established roots. Place the cuttings on top of the mesh. Fertilize the water.
Article: There are different approaches to this for different hair types. If your hair is damaged, oily, or limp, wash and condition it with something designed to create volume. If your hair is thick or not particularly oily, do not wash it before curling. Simply apply a dry shampoo to your roots. If your hair usually has trouble holding a curl, skip washing it for a day or two before curling. This should help make your hair more malleable. Using less conditioner, or none at all, may also help. Again, this will be different for different hair types. If your hair is damaged, oily, or limp, spray it with a heat protectant from root to ends while it is still damp. Apply a strong-hold mousse liberallyyou can do this at the roots to achieve a fuller look, or from mid-shaft to ends for a looser one. Blow dry upside-down until your hair is totally dry. If your hair is thick or not particularly oily, spray it from roots to ends with heat protectant, and work a liberal amount of strong-hold mousse through your whole head. You may not be able to afford lots of specialized hair products, especially if you don't curl your hair often, or you may be curling your hair on short notice and not have time to run out to the store. These recommended products will help your hair keep its curl and protect it from heat damage, but you can still achieve a beautiful curl without them. That said, it is highly recommended that at a minimum you have hair spray, and something to help protect your hair from heat (especially if you plan on curling it regularly). There are many shampoos that help with the latter, in addition to all the heat protectant sprays on the market.
