RE: Making Old Marble Shine
Clean it and let it dry. Apply a thin coat of turtle wax (used for cars) let the wax dry and then buff like crazy. Once your desired shine is achived, just be sure to dry every time it is wet. Good luck.

RE: Scotch Tape Removed Color From Leather Couch
It's likely the colour was not removed, it is probablly the 'glue' from the tape that is making it look discoloured. Wash the area with a mild detergent and water and then rub with the inside of a banana peel to buff the leather back to it's original luster. I've used this on everything from 'bug guts on hubby's motorcycle gear to purses and shoes. It works everytime.

RE: Using Foam Brushes To Refinish Tub
Foam brushes leave a little 'air pocket' in which the water will sit in after you drain your tub.This is where it will peal first and likely leave a bigger mess than you started with, especially if you are using a different colour paint. It is best to use a spray gun. I've used Krylon paint with great success. Good luck.

RE: Recycle Expired Credit Cards as Dish Scraper
They also work great for scrapping gum off floors, dried glue, hardened candies etc. You can also punch holes in them and use them as large key tabs for kids, zipper pulls, luggage tags etc. With a little sanding they are also easily paintable.

RE: Suede Pieces Too Small to Cut Out Pattern
I would suggest going to your local thrift shop and purchasing a few suede skirts. Cut them apart and get a lot of suede for a minimal price. Good luck and please post a photo of your finished project.
