As it melts a little, swish it around in a circle until it's clean. Works like magic, no scrubbing!<BR/><BR/>Baking soda and (any kind of) salts in even amounts as a simple but amazing bath salts.Phill https://www.blogger.com/profile/07087113754217015743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2634969979683449053.post-57164434919923690432008-08-23T19:25:00.000-04:002008-08-23T19:25:00.000-04:00hey, these are good ideas that I've never heard.

Then rub into a paste. It gets really hot but will get your hands remarkably clean.

Even a small paper cut will bring the toughest to thier knees!<BR/><BR/>AaronAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
