How to Beat Stains on Every Surface in Your House

Laminate Countertops

You can use these remedies on countertops or floors.

• Organic stains: To remove stains from food, coffee, tea, etc., wipe your counter regularly with a soapy sponge, and these should disappear.
• More stubborn stains: Mix three parts baking soda to one part water. Let stand several minutes on the stain; gently wipe away, rinse, and dry. An all-purpose household cleaner, such as Fantastic or OxiClean Miracle Foam, can also be effective. Allow it to sit on the spot for a few minutes; blot with a clean cloth and rinse.
