Be careful not to use hairspray as you may have once heard. The sprays manufactured nowadays have alot of chemicals and oils that can actually spread the stain, causing more of an issue.
Hidden Talents in your very own cupboards: While there may be a number of cleaners, stain removal and miracle products at the store, some of the items in your cabinets may be just as effective.
Hydrogen Peroxide: Not only does it help fix boo-boo's, but it is a good stain remover - works great on blood stains or other fairly fresh stains - combine 1/2 cup with 1 teaspoon of ammonia..blot area, and wash as normal.
White Vinegar: This is our miracle cleaner! We use it to clean inside windows, carpet stains, hard water stains. A mixture with water usually does the trick. On carpet stains, apply directly and then blot with a clean, wet cloth.

Try this as well - Pour abit of white vinegar in a small container. To remove lime build-up on your bathroom faucets and shower heads, soak them in the vinegar for several minutes. Wipe off.
Dryer sheets: Make a casserole last night? Can't get the pan clean without scrubbing a hole in the bottom of it? Try soaking it over night with a dryer sheet. Cooked on debris should be easy to remove in the morning.
