    Learned a new trick from your video, and that is to heat the cloth. It’s a “duh” moment! That would make it so much easier cleaning the cabinets. Thank you for the new trick!

    Hi Kevin, I totally agree with you about not using paper towels. Way too expensive and certainly not good if you do as much recycling as possible. I swear by your terry cloth idea. In fact, I use old cotton/polyester T shirts that I cut up. I tend to use Bar Keepers Friend for cleaning my stainless sink and, like you, periodically soak it in bleach and let it air dry.
    Thanks very much for another great Lifestyle and kitchen maintenance video. You certainly keep us all on our toes!! Huge Hugzz, Steve xx

    Dear Kevin, i kust want you to know ... I forward your videoes to my young adult working grandchildren who have their own apartments.
    So much they need to know and your instructions are definitely a "need to know."
    So grateful for you. ❤

    Kevin, My husband and I have always used hot water with dawn and vinegar but today we are spring cleaning. So we decided to use your methods. Well sir, this works beyond our wildest dreams. I hope you can hear my appreciation in this note. You are our hero, lol.

    I'm on a mission to stop using lots of cleaning products and your video is so helpful for this. Using reusable terry cloths, baking soda, etc. Microwaving the cloths is such a great tip! I'm a gardener and love to cook, too, so I will explore your other videos and have subscribed. Thank you, glad I found you.

      The perfect thing, is old towels cut down, stitch a quick hem around them and they are good to go.

    Kevin, use pinking shears to cut a dark fabric to size to put on top of your fridge! You just take down the cloth and put it in the washing machine (use a little Dawn) instead of having to scrub the top. Unfortunately, you cannot cover the entire fridge, so you still have to do the sides.🤪

    Hello Kevin, I don’t know the best way to contact you but I wondered if you could give me some advise? After 90 years of family ownership I’m an in the process of selling my 17 room family beach house on the CT shore. Exorbitant taxes and upkeep no longer work for me. My fiancée Bruce and I put an offer in on a much smaller bold ocean front house on the northern Maine coast. My question is I’m overwhelmed. How should I best proceed packing and moving 17 rooms of antiques? Any ideas about how to organize and accomplish this feat would be greatly appreciated.

    • @kevinleejacobs1364
      @kevinleejacobs1364  4 роки тому +1

      I'd speak to a professional moving company. Most are terrific with antiques. The movers will safely pack everything from fine furniture and objets d'art to glassware and kitchen utensils. They will even pack the contents of desk and dresser drawers! The biggest job for you and your fiancee will be deciding what items you wish to keep, toss, or auction. And that will be stressful indeed.

    do you use vinegar and Clorox bleach to clean the cloths/towels In the washing machine?

    • @kevinleejacobs1364
      @kevinleejacobs1364  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching the video! I wash the cloths and towels at high temperature, and only add bleach if the cloths are badly stained. I never add vinegar to the wash.
