Quick solutions to force majeure: things that help you get rid of annoying hassles (9 photos)
Force majeure events, such as a zipper getting stuck or sweat stains forming, can happen to anyone. And there are not always things nearby that can quickly solve the problem. True, if there is no handbag or the contents of a kitchen cabinet nearby.
At least temporarily, these things will save you the hassle.
It's no secret that suede shoes are very impractical in dirty weather. After all, it will not be possible to remove stubborn dirt with a rag or a damp cloth in a couple of minutes. On the contrary, it will only make the situation worse. Using a nail file to gently rub the stain can help solve the problem.
By the way, the problem area can also be treated with a simple stationery soft eraser, which is also suitable for simple treatment of shiny areas.
Surely everyone has at least once encountered lightning that gets stuck at the most inopportune moment. Sometimes it unfastens tightly, sometimes it gets stuck. Solving the problem is quite simple by taking regular Vaseline or lip balm (ordinary soap can also work).
You need to move the fastener up, lubricate the teeth, and then slowly lower it down. This needs to be done until the zipper opens properly. In addition, this method is perfect if there is fabric caught in the teeth.
However, it also happens that the zipper does not hold at all. Then you should fasten the clasp and treat the teeth with hairspray. True, to achieve the desired effect you need to wait until this very varnish dries. Otherwise, all your efforts will go down the drain.
It is no secret that it is advisable to remove grease stains on time. This also applies to leather products. Starch, chalk or baby powder can help remove them. It is enough to apply one of this to the stain for 30 minutes, and then brush off the residue with a brush.
In addition, soda or salt will do, but they need to be removed with a damp sponge so as not to leave unnecessary marks.
The easiest way to get rid of odor and sweat stains is to wash your clothes. But what to do if you urgently need something? Apply a vodka solution in a ratio of 6 to 1 (vodka to water). If you apply it to the contaminated area with a spray bottle, the smell and stains will disappear.
You can also mix water and soda in such a proportion that the resulting thick paste is obtained. However, in this case the clothes should be turned inside out. After processing, you need to wait until the item dries and then shake it well.
If this same stain turns out to be complex and old, the water should be replaced with lemon juice. Otherwise, the sequence of actions is the same, only at the end the clothes need to be rinsed with water and lightly washed by hand.
Well, let's finish with transparent nail polish, which is a universal remedy for solving several problems at once. For example, you can use it to secure loose glasses on your glasses if you don’t have a small screwdriver at hand. Just a drop of varnish will allow you to secure the hinges, albeit temporarily.
In addition, it can be used to secure a torn or unraveling thread, as well as keep buttons that fall out at the most inopportune moment in their place.
