UHU Por, also called UHU Creativ in some markets, try it.
Best heavy metal band of all time.
But back on topic - home brand facial tissues. Honestly, you might as well blow your nose on your bare hands for all the use they are.
I have medium length, curly hair. You couldn’t detangle my hair without conditoner. You can barely detangle it if you have the wrong conditioner. (They just “updated” my brand, and the new version doesn’t work as well. Still better than nothing, but trust me, you could tell.)
Drano also works to dissolve the hair that I can’t keep out of the drain.
Method brand cleaning products.
Great. They’re saving the earth or whatever, good for them. But when I use Dawn my dishes get clean. When I use their crap in a bottle, they don’t. They might even get slimier. But no way am I eating off of that. Same with the wipes (again, Comet cleans. Method - not so much.)
Theoretically, I’d love to do more environmentally friendly products. But after a few Method uses, I realized that the whole purpose of cleaning is killing the environment in my kitchen and bathroom. So, I’m using that crap anymore.
If it helps, I can heartily recommend Biokleen laundry detergent (big jug here), and the green works line from (Clorox? P&G? It’s slipping my mind right now.) The “bathroom cleaner” wasn’t all that good, but that may be because we kind of got into a battle of the wills and no one cleaned our bathroom (out of two or three people living here, depending on timeframe) for probably 3 or 4 months. It wasn’t disgusting, just dirty. (We’re all men :p) The toilet bowl cleaner also makes a good replacement for Soft Scrub, one of my favorite cleaning products.
Apologies if this was cleared up later in the thread, but are you talking about something like this?
I’m curious because I actually never heard of them marketed as a cleaning tool other than here and on Amazon a few minutes ago. I thought they were for removing wallpaper (?) (It did this well, but I have no idea if it was supposed to).

Don’t laugh. You might remember the stories about the pacemaker type that had defective wires and randomly gave people shocks. I also had reason to look at the design of a chip used by one pacemaker company, and it was the biggest piece of crap imaginable. In fact that design became kind of a joke. After I saw that, I started exercising more. 
How about Super Glue’s new product, Future Glue? Have you tried that? It claims to work on all plastics, including polypropylene.
How on earth do you get your cats to wear the diaper in the first place? 
Actually yes, I have tried it and it works.
It’s just not very convenient for our needs, and it would be better if it was less brittle, but I think we may end up using the industrial version in production.
For a laugh, look at this: http://www.allsealsinc.com/pdfs/3M_Scotch_Weld_Structural_Adhesives_Selection_Guide.pdf
It’s a grid of all the combinations of materials that one might want to glue together, and what glues might work. What’s the one square that’s empty? Nylon + Polypropylene!
I second the Soft Scrub–the opening clogs and becomes an obstacle after the first few uses.
I use Drano just fine in the bathroom; it’s never done a thing in the kitchen for me. I also second the cat box liners–who thought of this? I bought one box (stupid me) and then the penny dropped. :smack:
I used Super Glue to glue #2 son’s lens into his frame–I got tired of it falling out (his lenses are thick, but he prefers wire frames). It worked like charm.
And what is it with pumps on lotion bottles etc? There is still a sizable portion of lotion left in the container–but the pump will not pump it out. I have 2 such containers right now. I unscrew the pump dispenser thing, put some lotion on my hands and replace the dispenser. Grrrr.
Oh, and it’ll take the chrome off that ring doodlybopper on the drain opening.
Not that I’ve learned that lesson the hard way personally…especially in a unit I was renting…or anything like that…
There are these strips of adhesive plastic that are supposed to allow you to (essentially) rip out extra hairs from between your brows or in the “mustache” area. I forget what they’re called.
They don’t work at all. I think they might have ripped one hair off once. I don’t have a lot of facial hair (really!), maybe they work better on full on stubble? So, it’s back to plucking…
Oops, I got to thinking and it wasn’t Drano that (allegedly) did that; it was some kind of super toilet bowl cleaner stuff. Missed the edit window.
I like their all-purpose cleaner and their tub-n-tile cleaner for most cleanups, though admittedly you may need to let them sit for the worst jobs. I’ve never tried the dishwashing liquid or wipes, though.
I read that as “dishwashing liquor wipes” and was momentarily confused…
After seeing those “massager” ads, I think you might enjoy this webcomic. (The short-haired lady with glasses is the birthday girl’s mother; the gift-giver, Clarice, works in a porn store.)
I’ve found that the Kleenex 3-ply tissues work great. I realized how great after I got cheap and bought some Scotties 2-ply tissues - I have to use two of these at a time.
My problem with these are the ones where the spigot (spout? nozzle?) is not sufficiently curved downward. The bottle I have now, the second time I used it I held my hand under the spigot and depressed the plunger … and the lotion shot out in a straight line and got me in the middle of the chest.
Or they get clogged with that gross little waxy hardened blob and then when it goes the lotion squirts out in some totally random direction. :mad:
You can use a 1 iron as a lightning rod, 'cause not even God can hit a 1 iron.
When my old hacked Aiwa from Singapore conked out, I bought one from J-List. Even shipping across the Pacific, the price was still reasonable (though it took about a month to arrive), and for a no-name brand it’s worked just fine for the year and change that I’ve been using it.
