A smidgon on a cloth removes small stains from carpets. When putting sealant around counter tops, showers etc. touch of fairy on finger and round across sealant smoothes it out. Plumber told me that trick.

dunno about now but years ago if you had a squeaking suspension rubber on your car, a spray of wash up liquid cured it!


also if you are using araldite or similar,resin based glues, rub W/U liquid on your hands.. stops it sticking to your fingers.......


apparently all good window cleaners use fairy........other liquids are nowhere near as good for removing smears.....

and if you get some grease or fat on your clothes

.......... put a small amount of it on a damp cloth, and gently rub the area. Then either rinse off, or gently rub with a clean damp cloth.

Well the slogan was,"Hands that do dishes feel as soft as your face with mild green fairy liquid" So if you,ve got a "Wrinkley Face Etc. Bung it in the Dishwasher.another problem solved.**M**.:o)>

You can put some under teh feet of your washing machine/fridge etc help drag it out if you need in behind. Long as you you clean it up after....you'll slip.

Dont ask me how it works but if you put some in water with suger it atracts wasps etc.
Builders put some in the cement when mixing it..dont know why either.
