RE: Removing Shells From Hard Boiled Eggs
When you have to peal eggs, use like eggs at least one to two week old eggs. New eggs do not peal well at all. then crack then eggs some in sink and place in a dish of cold water and dump lots ice in the pan. let them sit a few minutes and the shells slip right off. But new eggs are very hard to peal. Working in kitchens I always make sure we hold, control and rotate eggs with that reason in mind. ... View related article.

RE: Making Fabric Water Repellent
I have used "Thompson's Water Sealer" for decks on all type of fabric for outside use. I have even used it on a tent and silk flowers I placed in my garden. Worked great for me! I just pour some in a spray bottle and toss out the bottle when finished with the project. Good Luck!

RE: Cleaning Car Carpet After Water Damage
Take a solution of household hydrogen peroxide and water 50/50 to scrub the carpet with a brush. You will not have to use a lot of water here. The purpose is to get the peroxide into the fabric. Then go to car wash and use the vacuum to pull water out really well. I would let it sit for at least 20 minutes. You might have to repeat procedure. The peroxide will kill the mold and spores. It is even used on plants for the same thing. Finish air drying the car or even place a fan on it to speed it up. That carpet has a thick pad under it. After it is dried out, If the car smells musty, you might place a ceramic bowl full of Ammonia on the floor board with the windows up overnight. The gasses of the ammonia go into the fabric and kill orders very well. Also works good to remove smoke smells from a car.

Next morning remove bag and air out. This also works to kill the smell of smoke in a car. Use a full bowl of Ammonia, sit bowl on floor board with the windows up overnight.
