I finally got my knobs offf!! a Special FEAT!

Hi Sissygrl, you spent all day pulling knobs off when you didn't need to bother. My knobs were completely gunked up but I wouldn't have had your patience. I simply sprayed them with something that was meant to clean cookers and then degunked them with a wire cleaner, it's something I found in the kitchen, which I may have purchased with the strange idea of scrubbing pans, and I don't know what it is called. Actually I didn't degunk my knobs at all on further thought, I got my ten year old involved in a new fun game, lets see how shiny you can make these knobs

That sounds very gross! Ew! Glad you were able to clean them. I can't think of anything right off hand at his moment, but if I do think of something I'll come back to this discussion.

I did the knob thing in August before my friend came to visit....but tonight my dinner boiled over while the neighbor and I were visiting at the door so they might have to be done again.....I plan on doing a good cleaning next week....after my craft sale this weekend so I haven't really been cleaning at all!

Those knobs are VERY hard to remove! I need to do that, I haven't done it since I moved into my house 2 years ago. I also need to mop the kitchen floor and a dozen other chores. I need some motivation!

Hahahahaha! I'm so happy that you were able to get your knobs off! (Man, that sounds kinky! ) I finally hemmed the curtains in my livingroom after about a year. I had bought new sheers for my front bay window which are an unusual length. I had to buy sheers that were longer than the window, so I cut them off, meaning to hem them right away but things got in the way. You know how life goes... you plan it one way and it goes another way. Anyway, a couple of weeks ago, I was able to FINALLY get them hemmed, then took them down and washed them, took them outside to dry in the summer breeze, and put them back up. Boy! Do they look nice! LOL I try to keep up with the messes created when I cook. We have a glass-top range so cleaning the burners is not an all-day chore now, thankfully. Sometimes it needs hard scrubbing but there's nothing to take apart anymore. We also have buttons instead of knobs so that's not an issue anymore. But, I still do have to clean out the inside of the oven and that's a chore I dread. Maybe I'll get to that before the year is over.

I can understand your excitement over your successful knob removal. I tried unblocking my sink by unscrewing the pipe at the back and cleaning it out, but I couldn't screw it back on again, until, weeks later, last weekend I screwed it on successfully. No more flooded bathroom. Turns out my flange was getting in the way.

hi sissygrl oh my heehee what things went through my head, knobs off,okay knobs on your stove of course. bad me. I dont have to do'that anymore but I remember when I found out how to get them off so I could c lean i felt like I had really accomplished something, and of course'the stove looked so great. most apartments have gross things like that when you move in.

I've been cleaning out my front yard, and have been trying to get my rocks off for a long time! cd
