Household Tips: Spot Removal for marble floors
Use lukewarm water to remove spots from chocolate, grease, juice, cordials and wine. For tar, markers, crayon, lipstick, oil, shoe polish, ink, nail polish and cigarette burns, it is best to use acetone or nail polish remover or denatured alcohol. To remove candle wax and chewing gum, let it harden first and then, carefully scrape using a blunt plastic Scraper.

Clothesline / Laundry Hanger


A suggestion as to where to hang your clothesline in the unit? Of course, you would not want your laundry hanging from the balcony or placed on a rack in the balcony area for all to see! Hanging of laundry in the balcony area, as you know, is not permitted.
This practice is not only unsightly but spoils the amenity of our residence. For those who do not have a clothes dryer, check out this new gadget available at Citihome Collection a perfect device to hang your laundry, convenient to use and a real space saver. It is easy to install in the wet kitchen area, inside your unit. Do call and put it your order now at Citihome Collection at (021) 7278 3918 or 2750 5015.
