How To Bring Back The Whiteness Of Old Refrigerator

Here's a tip to bring out the whiteness of your old refrigerator, and I'm not talking about a new paint job. Our old refrigerator is showing signs of aging; it is no longer as white as it used to be. No amount of scrubbing and cleaning can take out the old, dirty white look. However, upon looking at my toolbox, I saw my polishing cream. Can this be used on that old refrigerator, and make it look like new again?

How to Fix Stuck DC Fan

I primarily use contact cleaner for cleaning the sensitive MAF sensor of my Vitara. MAF are mass airflow sensors; electronic sensors that measure the flow of air, sending the measurements to the computer box (ECU) to correctly calculate the needed air-fuel mixture of the engine.

However, a thought flashed when I saw an old DC fan: maybe I can use the contact cleaner to revive this one. It was a long shot, but it worked!

Creston Shovels: Bang for the Buck

I'm always on the lookout for good quality and yet low-priced tools. So far, I've bought Creston-brand pliers and screwdrivers, and now I have another addition to my tools. Meet my new Creston shovel and spade.

The spade has a flat blade and is mainly used for digging, while the shovel has a broad blade and used for lifting or scooping. Many people call the spade a shovel and vice versa, perhaps because the blade of the shovel is in the shape of the spade? Either way, the shovel can be an all-around tool but I also wanted to have a spade.

New Tools - Creston Screwdrivers and Pliers

Nagsisimula na ulit akong mag ipon ng tools na pang butingting. Namili kami ni kumander sa Trinoma ng pliers at set ng screwdriver at philips. Mahirap kasing bumili ng isahan na lang ng mga kailangan, kaya paunti-unti ko lang iipunin yung mga gamit. Buy as needed. Eh madalas na screwdriver ang kailangan ko kaya ito na ang inuna ko.

plantsa

nasira ni kumander ang plantsa kaya dinala namin kay ate para ipagawa kay kuya rod, wala kasi akong gamit sa apartment. kaso dahil marami ring ginagawa, hindi na naasikaso. ako na rin tuloy ang gumawa. success!

tapos sabi ng pamangkin ko, sira rin daw yung plantsa nila. mas masakit sa ulo ayusin ang plantsa nila kasi yun yung type na pwedeng lagyan ng tubig, tapos built in sprayer.

tip #1 karamihan ng sira ay nakukuha sa linis

chineck ko muna yung pang adjust ng temperature, at yun, na stuck pala.
pero para sure, binuksan ko na rin yung loob.

tip # 2 kung paano inalis ganon rin ibalik

kailangan hindi halata na pinakialaman mo lalo na kung hindi mo rin maaayos. buti na lang camphone ang dala ko.

tip # 3 hindi masamang doblehin ang kodigo

Closer look of inside the plantsa

tip # 4 mas matibay ang plantsa na lumang style kesa sa me built in atomizer chuva

nagcacalcify ang water sa loob, saka mas complicated ang design mas malaki chance na may masira.

dalawang plantsa working at the end of the day, happy day for me.
