Read this:

Oxalic acid removes rust

http://www.factsfacts.com/MyHomeRepair/RustStains.htm

Sodium Thiosulphate will react with the oxygen from the iron oxide (rust) to produce iron sulphate, which is pale green, but soluble, so washes out.

To remove the stubborn stain, leave the baking soda paste on the stain for 15-30mins and wipe off as per what the video says. It should remove the rust stain completely from your countertop.

yup....baking soda and vinegar are my favorite friends. they are used to cooking, cleaning, deodorizing and much more. i try as much not to use commerical cleaners.

when my neighbors fry belachan, i will boil a pot of water and add baking soda and vinegar. it deodorize the kitchen in a jiffy. it beats any air spray.

Hi Aki & Aya,

I finally confirmed DeFong as my ID Hope my choice is correct man... Now i'm simply at a lost cos i need to find Aircon, Windows & Grilles, and Electrical contractor by myself. Can you share with me your Aircon contractor? Yr blinds and curtains contacts also? Think i'll also go Hoe Kee for my kitchen accessories. Up till now i still cannot find an electrician. Very stressed out cos i just changed job and super busy with work. Cannot take leave somemore within these 3 months - cos just started in new job. But i'm so glad that you've set up a super informative and interesting blog. I'm following your blog very closely. hehe... thanks & good work! so happy to see that yr reno is completing soon.

if there are many kids, you would rather they be living below your unit than above yours.....heehee....

i also close my dining windows between 4-8pm, in case the curry/belachan smells comes into my living/dining area.
