Stains on Bath
Dear Aunt Daisy. In my latest Listener I see another woman has had great success with your recipe for cleaning) a stained bath. But she does not give any instructions. I remember you gave particulars about 12 months ago. Would you be kind enough to repeat the full instructions and method, and whether to leave it on to soak or only clean by rubbing, as we now have a bath in a bad state? "A.C.Y.," Avondale. For a stained bath (sometimes even a dripping tap will cause a stain) make a thick paste with cream of tartar and peroxide. Plaster this over the stain and leave on as lotig as possible-perhaps 24 hours, or until the bath is needed for use. Repeat as often as necessary; it may take 3-4 days Another remedy is a paste made of kerosene and soap powder, left on in the same way. Always rinse with clean water. The first mixture is the most successful.
