Sometimes it’s the most unusual thing that turns out to be the magical solution for a household problem -- things like a hairdryer, tube of toothpaste or simple explanation.
Dear Mary: We had a very bad, dark pink, 7-foot stain in our white fiberglass whirlpool bathtub from previous antifreeze winterizing. I'd tried many things to remove the awful stain, including baking soda, soft scrub, bleach, scrubbing bubbles and mildew stain remover, among other things. I was about to give up and live with the long ugly pink stain when I tried non-gel toothpaste. It came off 100%! The tub is beautiful and sparkles again. I don’t know if anyone else might have this issue or a similar one, but I wanted to share this one with you. -- Gail
