    Tips for removing the red spray paint: use hand sanitizer on a cloth and rub gently. It all comes off. On wood, like the cutting boards, leave it on for a few minutes. On clothing, re-treat with hand sanitizer, then wash. It might only leave a faint pink stain but the homeless and DV shelters need the blankets and other stuff. They really do not care.

    The pillows that were spray painted like body pillows and decorative pillows you can totally buy covers for. I love your guy’s videos though. Other ones I have seen don’t even bother to take stuff you would have to repair. That’s why you are the only DD’s that I subscribe to. I just recently re subscribed because I broke my old iPad and the new one didn’t have any of the old subscriptions saved on it.

    Just an idea on some of the spray painted fabrics....dye the rest of it. The spray painted pillows... wash em, then put a zippered cover on them and donate it to a shelter

    The bins in Australia are not kept in those little alcoves and are usually under camera surveillance.
    Our house got flooded and we went diving for cardboard boxes sho that we could pack up undamaged items and within 10 mins we were being questioned by guards and told to move along.

    Hi guys try using oven spray cleaner , foaming type , maybe not much good for blankets , but plastics and wood should come straight off , give it 10 minutes .
    Used to use it on graffity on cars , its not strong enough to hurt paint or plastic but gets fresh paint off easy

    So bed bath and beyond almost always spray paint their stuff and also cut cord's. However I have found that paint thinner and nail polish remover gets most of the paint off anything but fabric. And I will tell you why they do it. If someone brings something back they are not allowed to put it back on the shelf. And if they throw it away people pick out items and return for store credit at a different store. Also almost always if you return an item it will be in the trash that night. I used to get single coffee makers there alot and the cord cut... Just splice the wires together and yeah the cord will be shorter but it works.

    I useD to work at a 24 gas station/convenience store. One morning when I had emptied my inside trash cans and taken the liners out to dumpster, I found a large dog kennel in the dumpster. I couldn't just leave it, was never used, still had the tags on it, I donated it to local rescue group. Found all kinds of other peoples crap, meaning useless stuff in it all the time. Which is illegal. One time, a deer hunter dumped his deers guts in trash can by a pump, again, very illegal, but they didn't see who it was that did it.

  • @alexandriabrown4117

    You guys if you really like something you can get "Rid" dye remover and then redye something if you like. It might take a couple of times to get that red off of it but the dye remover takes all of the color out of material. It's like dying something. Throw it in the wash with they dye remover. I have a gold curtains that I wish I had got silver. A ton of money so if I use them I'm getting the dye remover and then dying them silver. A little secret for dying material, add a cup of salt in the washing machine while dying something and the dye dyes better. Also the cutting board, I heard alcohol takes a lot of things off like permanent marker. I don't know if it will take the red spray paint off but it probably will.

    Spanish? The writing on the back of the buffet set is French. Lots of super finds! Ce'st magnifique! BTW, "Best if Used By" dates are not expiration dates. They are markers used by manufacturers to use to sell as much of their products as possible, as quickly as possible and make as much money as possible. Most food keeps for many months, even years beyond these bogus "dates".
