Have shiny stainless steel

Undoubtedly, stainless steel gives a beautiful, stain-resistant look, but it also smudges and form fingerprints soon. The best way known to keep stainless steel clean and shiny is using mineral oil to wipe the sinks, countertops and other steel surfaces. Why?

Get away with the smell from the disposal

If you have smelly disposal, better clean them on a regular basis. For a quicker process, drop orange peels or lemon into the drain. Now, run the disposal for almost 15 seconds, drop some ice cubes and run it for a second time. As you turn off the disposal, use a stopper in the sink and fill it with water until half full. Finally, pull the stopper out and let the water flush down the disposal giving you naturally fresh scent.
