The sun is shining so it's at last the time to get all your garden wood looking good again. 
Owattrol deck and wood treatments give you easy to use, non-toxic and effective treatments for all your outdoor wood. From stripping old glaze to revitalising all your decks, chairs & tables - the solution is here.
Ink Remover
Removing ink such as biro or fountain pen ink is a problem that many of our visitors want to remedy. We have a few remedies, each one good for different reasons.

The Oops stain treatment (left) is effective on most surfaces and is a very easy to use spot treatment for biro, nail varnishes and greases.

The Solvex treatment (right) is good for inks, paints and solvent based stains and is safe on most fabrics.

What Can I Do About Those Bobbles?

w/e 19/05/08

Bobbles, mainly on knitwear but also on other fabrics are technically known as neps and can make clothes look old, cheap and dirty, even if they are perfectly clean and pretty new. These are faults in the yarn which results in fibres rolling into balls when the fabric is rubbed, which attach to the garment by strands that can be very difficult to remove.

Then best thing to do  is immediately take the garment back to the retailer but this is very rarely done, partly because if we do the sales assistant is likely to insist,  quite wrongly, that it's our fault because they don't understand the problem. 

You can get one of the many battery operated "shavers" that are meant to shave off the balls - just like a mans electric razor. However, we've found that these never remove all the bobbles. The best tool we have used is a "DrClean Fuzz Go" stick. This is a lump of specially formulated charcoal that you drag lightly over the surface of the garment and it breaks the bonds. Simply use a lint roller afterwards and your bobbles will be a thing of the past.

Although they will often recur you will have an easy way to get rid of them again. One Fuzz-Go stick will last for years - and you won't need batteries.

Alternatively, if you're confident, you could use a blade to shave off the balls but you must be very careful, it's exactly like shaving a face, you want to cut the fibres but not what's underneath. If you want to try this method then hold the blade at an acute and stretch the fabric slightly at the same time, so there's less chance of accidentally slicing into the fabric.
