Dealing with rust on antique iron?

Dealing with rust on antique iron items?

Most of the times you’re dealing with rust on your antique cast iron skillets, the natural instinct is to take them to a specialist that will handle your problem. But can you afford it? We can offer you a very simple solution that you can do yourself, you will need:

  • some raw potatoes;
  • salt (kosher type will work great);
  • towel;
  • a bit of Crisco (the un-buttered flavor);
First, put a couple of teaspoons of salt at the bottom of your sink and place the cast iron skillet in it. Then, grab a top-sliced potato and use its cut end to scour the skillet. Meanwhile grind the salt in those rust covered spots and rinse off the skillet as well. If it’s necessary, add more salt to the process. After the rust is all gone, take a towel to dry the iron skillet. If you have achieved the desired result, take some Crisco and rub into the surface of the object, making it ready for cooking once more.

Now, it’s important that you don’t wash the skillet with soap, because it will wear off the coating of oil. When you’re done with cooking with the iron skillet, make sure you rinse it. Don’t put it in the dishwasher, and don’t let it soak for a long time, as you would with your ordinary pan. If it need scrubbing, leave it to cool down and put some salt on it.

How to remove glue/sticker residue?

How to remove glue/sticker mark?

Stickers or sticky labels use various forms of adhesive to ensure that they stick well to many surfaces, from cars and windows to walls and products for sale. In some cases, the removal of a sticker leaves behind a sticky residue that can attract dust and other grime, turning the surface area a dirty colour and leaving behind an unpleasant texture. Removing sticker residue is easy in most cases, and it's possible you've even got what you need to this in the cupboard already. 

You can use the olive oil, put some oil on the cloth and wipe the area or buy Goo Gone. It does miracles and removes all the sticky things very easy. You can find this in your local hardware stores.
