The Best Summer Cleaning Tips

Does your home feel like it is still stuck with the summer blues? Well, spring cleaning is one of the traditions that will aid you freshen the home ahead of the hectic summer and spring seasons. To make things easier, here are six of the best summer cleaning tips that will keep your home in a tip-top shape all year round.

Cleaning painted walls

Start off with a sponge or piece of cloth and water. If the idea does not work as expected, consider mixing the water with any dish-washing liquid but keep it as mild as possible. Some stains may be stubborn, compelling you to apply the soap directly on the sponge or the wall itself. However, if you opt to use some of the strong cleaning detergents, be aware that they have very strong solvents which may actually soften the paint, a reason why they should be applied sparingly.

Arranging the closets

This should rather be the first step towards organizing the entire house. Get rid of obsolete accessories and clothes, and then organize the rest by color and the order in which you wear them. If you succeed in making the closets appealing, be assured that the other everyday routines will also be cheaper.

Maintaining stainless steel

There is no single home that will miss tools and accessories made of stainless steel. To maintain it clean and shiny, experts recommend the use of wax-based aerosol sprays. Wipe the mist with a clean piece of cloth but never use any oil because it will leave fingerprints. Similarly, do not use bleaching agents after applying the wax layer because it will dry away and lose most of its luster.
