If duct tape and WD-40 won't do it, there's always Windex.


Remember "My Big Fat Greek Wedding"? Windex was the father's solution for everything. Talk about product placement!

That's the reference. The movie is over 20 years old, and I still use that line regularly. Especially in threads like this where it is SO relevant. ;-)

And apparently Windex-solves-all-problems was a real thing for Nia Vardalos' father while she was growing up. So she just put it in the script.

That's interesting. It does do a good job cleaning almost everything.

I rarely use eggs thankfully. Dad told me to always have a roll of duct tape around the house. Dad I found one thing it doesn't work for.


I heard duct tape also doesn't fix stupid but it sure does muffle the sound.
