Lemi Shine is a great product! My dishes and glasses are now spotless, and the dishwasher shelves glide in and out. I almost spent a fortune on a water softener system to solve the issues, but I didn't want soft water in my home. Here's a great big thank you to you and your reader. - - Sandy, Florida Dear Sandy: Thanks for the great feedback on Lemi Shine. I just love to hear from readers how they find suitable ways to avoid spending money needlessly! Dear Mary: We have a 15-year- old step-in shower with floor to ceiling tile. Sometimes the grout turns light yellow or rusty, and sometimes black or brown. What is the best cleaning product or tech- nique to combat whatever this is? Is this the kind of mold that affects a home's resale value? Do I need a professional mold-removing ser- vice? -- Sam, email Dear Sam: Grout is extremely porous, and that is why it stains so easily. The mineral content in your water can cause it to yellow or appear rusty. Poor ventilation allows mildew to form. Scrubbing the grout with a solution of 1 cup liquid chlorine bleach to 1 gallon of water should take care of the stains. After you are satisfied, let it dry, and then apply a good grout sealer, available at any home-improvement center to make it more resistant to stain- ing in the future. Mildew in tubs and showers is a common household problem, but quite benign provided it is removed routinely and not allowed to penetrate into unreachable areas. Dear Mary: I read with interest your answer concerning paying down the principal on a mort- gage, versus advancing the payment date. I pay extra on the principal (noted on my payment slip) of my rental proper- ty each month, and I noticed my payment date had advanced five months. My extra payments weren't being prop- erly credited. My bank is now cor- recting the problem. I am still unclear about the advantages of paying down versus advancing the payment date and would appreciate further clarification. -- Bruce, Tennessee Dear Bruce: Your principal balance determines how much interest you pay each month. If you're outstanding balance is $100,000 and $100 of your $1,000 monthly payment this month goes to reduce that bal- ance, next month you will owe interest on $99,900. Let's say you send an Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate extra $1,000 with your payment. Without your clear instructions and follow-up for how you want that $1,000 applied, your lender can either use it to reduce your bal- ance to $98,900, which means you pay less inter- est next month, or use that $1,000 to "prepay" your regular payment for next month, leaving your principal balance at $99,900. Without clear instructions and follow up, assume that lenders will always apply pay- ments to their advantage, not the borrower's. Do you have a question for Mary?
