Mary asks: Me and my husband did this a little over a year ago. I'm going to be upfront with you. Stripping paint sucks. But the results can be amazing. This is what we did... We went to Janovic Paints and they filled us in on what our options were. From the most toxic to the Greener products. Since we were doing it ourselves we went down the less toxic route. And used a product called Peel Away. Look it up, it was great. Be warned it will take 2 possible 3 applications for you to get down the the metal. And the smell wont kill you. You'll have to go back with a sandpaper disk (attached to your drill) to get the metal shiny. And if you want to keep the metal shiny make sure you polyurethane it before it oxidizes (turns rust color) Good luck! Read More Answers (3) | Give your answer

Kellie asks: Hi Kellie,
We had the same problem with the humidity in our basement (roughly 40x60). My husband and I did a bit of research and ended up picking out a Delonghi dehumidifier. They have a reputable name that we felt comfortable with.
And the one thing we loved is it has this option that automatically removes the water from the holding tank. It has a hose that can pump the water upward to a drain or even through a window. We think it's great. Here is the link www.crateandhome.com/web/sitefiles/product-7474/DE400P.html
Hope this helped. Good luck!

aloha asks: Design WIthin Reach (DWR) told me some great ideas recently.
1. Leather Wipes by Weiman. They are like baby wipes, but for leather... not your butt. You can get them at Staples and they are cheap.
2. Never use saddle soap or oil based cleaners.
3. You can also use a damp cloth with regular dish soap and lukewarm water. Make sure you clean the whole surface not just spot clean.
4. If it's an oil based stain, call a pro. Read More Answers (1) | Give your answer
