My recent experience did a lot of justice on number 11. I've been trying to remove those sticky stains from the grill and I would always have a hard time doing it until some friend advised me that WD-40 can do the job. I had fantastic time cleaning since. Man, DW-40 is the superman of all industrial liquids!

I recently moved into a townhouse that wasn't cleaned or maintained for years. The cupboards and drawers in the kitchen and bathrooms were lined with the ugliest, dirtiest contact paper. I use clear plastic liner that I can remove and wash. So began the arduous task of removing it all. I tried everything, including a hair dryer and steam cleaner. Finally, I remembered WD40! Spray, let sit 1/2 hour, use a plastic paint scraper and the top layer peeled off in strips. Sprayed again sometimes twice more, scraped and Voila! All that was left was to wipe the drawers clean with my favorite cleaning product and the shelves were like new!
