White vinegar and cream of tartar -- I make a paste with it to clean my

[Ilsa]

range top. It practically eats cooked on greasy food right off the glass top. It is very effective, and only takes a little bit of the cream of tartar. I don't know if it is more financially efficient to clean this way, but those nonscratch glass top cleaners are pricey, too. And I don't have to worry about harmful chemicals.

I'm going to try it on grease spots on clothing.

1. Sounds good

I bought a half gallon of that commercial cleaner at Costco about 5 years ago. Diluted down and in a spray bottle, it's good for most jobs. Diluted only half and half with water, it's paint remover.

It should last me another 10 years at least.
