Products with unintended uses. What do you use?


Recommended Posts

What you do and what products do you use for something that they weren't designed for?

Whink- toilet bowl cleaner I use on windows to remove hard water stains

WD-40- lubricant I use it to clean up 5200/4200 from my fingers and anything else it gets on!

Peroxide- a cap full in your shower and sink drains will keep your sumps from smelling

Coffee/ apple slices- to remove odors from a boat, place a small bowl of cheap coffee topped with thinly sliced apples in various places around the boat. this is a car dealers trick to remove the smell of smoke from used cars. It will not return!

Toluene- great for cleaning shore cords or any other vinyl or rubber surface without damaging the finish. Must use heavy gloves, its not good for you. It wont leave your fenders or shore cords sticky. Coat them with 202 afterwards for a nice long lasting finish.
