If there are stains such as wine on the surface of the furniture, never rub them vigorously. You can use warm tea water to gently wipe away the wine stains, and after the moisture evaporates, apply a small amount of polishing wax on it and then gently wipe it a few times. This will form a protective film on the surface, which is also a kind of maintenance for the furniture itself.

　　Give your floor a "face mask"

　　During the Spring Festival, Ms. Zhang's home in Xianju was bustling with activity as children from relatives and friends gathered there. While Ms. Zhang was cooking, her five-year-old son brought out his beloved toy race cars and, along with his friends, sat in small groups on the floor playing with them. They turned the smooth wooden floor into a racetrack, speeding around as they pleased. When Ms. Zhang finished cooking and came out, the floor surface was covered in scratches and bruises from the relentless trampling of the race cars. Ms. Zhang was both heartbroken and angry, at a loss for what to do.

　　This phenomenon occurs frequently, and how can such "scars" be repaired? Ms. Feng, who has over 10 years of experience selling wood flooring, explains that the repair depends on the specific situation. For solid wood flooring, if the surface finish is intact but there are scratches or marks, it's relatively easy to fix. After cleaning, simply polish with polishing wax. If the finish is worn through, you can use wet sandpaper dipped in soapy water to sand it, then touch up the affected area, let it dry, apply another coat of varnish, and finally wax and polish. For engineered wood flooring, it's easier to handle; if there are scratches, simply wipe with a slightly damp mop.

　　Give your furniture a "wake-up" treatment.

　　The festive atmosphere of Chinese New Year is always accompanied by alcoholic beverages. In the excitement of toasting, playing drinking games, and getting drunk, it's inevitable that some drinks will be spilled on the floor or knocked over, leaving stains on the furniture. Many people have experienced this, and most simply wipe it up without any further cleaning. However, this actually causes varying degrees of damage to both the floor and the furniture. So how can we truly clean these stains?

　　Mr. Song, the head of a furniture brand, said that the remedy is not complicated. If there are stains such as wine on the surface of the furniture, never rub them vigorously. You can gently wipe away the stains with warm tea water, and after the moisture evaporates, apply a small amount of polishing wax and then gently wipe it a few times. This will form a protective film on the surface, which is also a kind of maintenance for the furniture itself.

　　Give your fabric sofa a "bath".

　　A group of children sat on the sofa watching "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf," snacking and drinking. As they watched, they started making a ruckus, accidentally spilling their drinks and greasy chicken legs on the sofa. If it were a leather sofa, they could probably just wipe it dry with a cloth and it wouldn't be a big deal. Fabric sofas, however, are more prone to stains, and during the Chinese New Year, the stains on fabric sofas become even more severe.

　　Ms. Cai, who runs a furniture store in Luqiao for many years, says that many customers prefer fabric sofas in terms of style and color, but a significant number ultimately choose leather over fabric because fabric sofas are too difficult to maintain. Ms. Cai believes that regular maintenance of fabric sofas is essential and crucial. Regular cleaning is necessary, and spills such as juice should be avoided to prolong the furniture's lifespan. If stains appear on the fabric sofa, gently wipe them with a clean cloth dampened with water. To avoid leaving marks, it's best to wipe from the outside of the stain inwards. For all fabric sofa covers and linings, dry cleaning is recommended.

　　"Wiping the feet" in the bathroom

　　Bathroom tiles, especially floor tiles, inevitably accumulate grime in the grout lines after the heavy traffic during the Spring Festival. Ordinary cleaning methods seem to only clean the surface, failing to reach the grout. Ms. Huang, a resident of Duqiao city, has a clever trick for dealing with this: diluted hydrochloric acid. Diluted hydrochloric acid can be bought at home improvement markets, and only a small amount is needed. To use it, you can use an empty eye dropper bottle to absorb a small amount of hydrochloric acid and drip it onto the tile grout. You'll see many small bubbles appearing in the grout. After a few seconds, gently brush along the grout lines, and the grime will be removed.

　　Give the kitchen a "face wash".

　　During the Spring Festival, every family prepares a sumptuous feast, firstly to reward their family members who have worked hard all year, and secondly to entertain relatives and friends. As a result, the kitchen, after being overloaded during the Spring Festival, often becomes a disaster area of ​​oil fume pollution. Therefore, thorough cleaning becomes the top priority for post-holiday cleaning.

　　Ms. Yan from Linhai renovated her parents' kitchen in the countryside before the Lunar New Year. The kitchen cabinets had a light-colored artificial stone countertop, which looked clean and elegant. However, when she returned to her parents' house after the Lunar New Year, she found many black spots on the light-colored countertop, making it look dirty. Ms. Yan thought it was a product defect and immediately called the cabinet company to complain. After inspection by the after-sales service personnel, it was discovered that "it was all her parents' fault." The staff explained that daily cleaning of light-colored artificial stone countertops is very important. If soy sauce, soup, or other contaminants are spilled while cooking, they must be wiped up immediately, otherwise the stains can easily penetrate into the countertop, causing permanent marks. In addition, when cleaning the countertop, one must be very careful and not use abrasive scouring pads, steel wool, chemical agents, or steel brushes, as these can easily cause scratches or corrosion. The correct method is to wipe with a soft towel or soft scouring pad dampened with neutral detergent.
