Lemon Oil:

This product is recommended for use on all natural wood surfaces EXCEPT butcher block tops, cutting boards, and white washed cabinets. Apply to both sides of the cabinet doors (other than white-washed cabinets) to keep the wood from drying out. Use the lemon oil to clean and shine cabinets (other than white-washed cabinets), handrails, etc.

Spackling Compound:

This product can be used for patching and filling holes, dents, or other irregularities in either wood or plaster surfaces. Apply the compound with a flexible putty knife and allow to dry completely. Sand and paint as desired. Flat wall paint can be applied directly over dry, sanded spackle. However, the spackled area should be sealed with a primer before using enamel paint.

Putty Knife:

Use this tool to apply packling compound and to scrape wood and plaster surfaces before sanding and painting. Clean well after each use.

Gel Gloss:

This product is recommended for use on fiberglass and cultured marble. It will produce a high luster, eliminate water spots and help prevent surface staining. Apply to clean, dry surfaces and follow manufacturer’s directions.

Caulking:

DAP Kwik Seal (red and white tube) is a white caulking material for use in the kitchen and bathrooms. Use it around sinks to fill cracks in the grout, and around the base of toilets and bath tubs to prevent water from migrating under the flooring. Kwik Seal should also be used around shower valves, tub spouts, or any such location to prevent water intrusion. DAP Alex Plus (blue and white tube) is a paintable white caulking material for use in minor drywall crack repairs and any gaps around interior wood trim.

Silicone Spray:

This lubricant can be used on sliding windows and doors. Be sure to clean the window or door tracks thoroughly before applying. The spray will also lubricate squeaking door hinges.

Simple Green:

Use this all-purpose cleaning agent on marble, glass, and ceramic surfaces that cannot be cleaned with an abrasive cleanser. Please follow directions for proper mixing and usage.

Paint brushes:

The foam brush is good for small touch-up painting and is easily cleaned with water.
