I was cleaning a furniture set today, nice, easy "Southwestern" style fabric....easy clean. Went to more the love seat out away from the wall and .....!Wham!! ....ran my finger right into an exposed staple! Bled like a stuck pig....(how ever they bleed)....but a PITA eitherway, cause I had to stop to bandage up. Man, did that hurt.

I noticed there was an extra red streak in the fabric after I finished......

Carry a bottle of New Skin (liquid bandage).

Water and bandages don't mix!


I never thought of the "new skin" stuff. Good idea.

For us "older" cleaners......new skin, if applied to skin tags, will help remove them.

I like to wear surgical gloves while cleaning furniture, also a good way to contain blood if you need to.
