Any way to keep that tub nice and shiny? Are there certain detergents that are bad for it? I never use chlorine bleach in it and I polished it to look new, but after 1 use it was all tarnished using Ivory Snow. Any thoughts? |

As I have gotten older, how I have learned just how true that is. I just noticed that it leaves a balckish residue on my hand when I rub over it...wondering if that is transferred onto the clothes? |

Mother Toggle used to use lemon rather than vinegar in aluminum pots.

I remember my great-aunt doing exactly these maintenance steps with her Maytag, as Turbo describes them. Also, wasn't there some kind of strainer under the agi to keep lint out of the drain? I seem to recall that. |
