pour some coke on a rag and it will do better than any product you can buy in the store.

while coke does help in removing certain unwanted things, the products you buy in the store are much better than coke, and sometimes cheaper, and usually always less harmful to the product. Coke actually corrodes iron, tin and steel.


Awesome, which you can get at the dollar store, will clean any and everything, but usually needs to be diluted heavily depending on what your cleaning.

Something i learned recently, killing a Crepe Myrtle is almost impossible, and i can't stand that damn tree anymore. moved into a house that had 29 of them. I've uprooted some completely, cut them down and drilled holes all over it and poured Eraser in it. Always seems to find a way to show signs of life.
