If you’ve been in your home for a while, it’s probably withstood a good amount of wear and tear. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we know that scratches on the wood floor or stains on the carpet—that’s just life. If you’ve got visitors, or more important yet, home buyers coming over that you want to impress, here is a easy cleaning home remedy that will help you in a pinch. Spills, like red wine, Kool-Aid, or cranberry juice, can be cleaned up with a solution of hydrogen peroxide followed by white vinegar. Mix hydrogen peroxide 50-50 with water. Also mix a 50-50 solution of grain-distilled white vinegar and water. Saturate the stained area first with the peroxide mixture, letting it sit for five minutes. Then blot away the peroxide before pouring on the vinegar solution. This step is important because the vinegar neutralizes the peroxide’s bleaching properties. Then rinse thoroughly with plain water.

Permanent marker isn’t as permanent as you might think: Sunscreen, hairspray, and nail polish remover that contain acetone should wipe it away. Be careful because acetone is a powerful solvent. Test it on an inconspicuous area first since liquid may increase the stain’s size as it dissolves, dab it on rather than pour, and do not leave it on for long lest you damage the surface you’re trying to clean.
