Hi there,

I have finally got round to getting a couple of decent lambs wool wash mitts and i was wondering what is the best way to keep them really good, just rinse with plenty of cold water??
Hope you can help.

Also i was speaking to a mate recently who has chewing gum on his passenger seat- its been there for nearly three weeks!!!agghh. He was wondering if i knew how to get it off. Its on fabric upholostry but its near to the suede part of the seat. I was thinking some WD40 or tar and glue remover solvent? Any suggestions?

Cheers, ROb

Some ice inside a rag to freeze it so he can pick most of it off?.

Keep the WD40 as far away from the seats as you can!!.

Don't laugh...I have seen this work time and time again. pour a little washing up liquid onto the chewing gum, then pour salt onto the washing up liquid and rub in.

With a fresh cloth lift off the gum / liquid / salt residue and away you go!
