Make Bricks Look Brighter
Try some vinegar on your home’s exterior to freshen it up. How about this for a quick and easy solution to keep your brick fireplace clean? Wipe the bricks clean with a damp towel dipped in a solution of 1 cup of white vinegar and 1 gallon (3.7 liters) of warm water. The fireplace will be so lovely that you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner! This procedure can also be used to brighten any other exposed brick, such as brick flooring.

Remove Wax & Polish Buildup With Vinegar
To remove furniture polish or wax that has accumulated on wood furniture or leather tabletops, use diluted white vinegar. To remove built-up shine off wood furniture, soak a cloth in equal parts vinegar and water and squeeze thoroughly. The polish should then be removed, working in the direction of the grain. Wipe the surface dry with a gentle towel or cloth. A soft cloth soaked in 1/4 cup vinegar and 1/2 cup water can be used to clean the majority of leather tabletops. Using a clean towel, blot up any remaining liquid.
