    Clorox Green is good as well....I use this since I have oil rubbed bronze finishes/trim and it ...»
    will not harm the finish. I have also used equal parts water and alcohol with a drop or 2 of Dawn. AFTER YOU GET THEM CLEAN: i use RainX (for windshields can be bought at Walmart, Car Quest) which helps the water sheet off. And remember to squeegee or dry doors after every shower. I don't have to really clean my doors and apply RainX but about once a quarter using this method....just a rinse and dry will do it.

    I would paint the cabinet white to keep it consistant, the inside of the cabinets a light ...»
    turquoise and cover the chairs in a plaid as well as a small cornice over the window. Or leave windows open or use plantation shutters to keep the room light since the wall color is so dark. Be sure to let us see the finished project.
