Another example of switching to a
            higher-horsepower  tool  is  when
            you encounter food dried so hard
            that  even  a  white  pad  takes
            forever to work. Let's say drips of
            pancake  batter  have  dried  to
            malicious little  bits  of stone  stuck
            to  the  counter.  When  you  tried
            your  white  pad,  you  found  that
            you were rubbing one micron or so
            off  the  top  of  the  dried  pancake
            batter every swipe.  When you first
            encounter  the  problem,  better  to
            put  your  cloth  away,  grab  your
            scraper, and scrape the batter loose
            in  a  second  or  two.  Replace  the
            scraper  and  continue  along  your
            way.  Be  careful  not  to  scratch  the
            surface: Spray the surface first and
            keep  the  scraper  blade  at  a  low
            angle.  Remember,  increase  the
            force or strength of the tool only as
            necessary (Rule 7).

            Picture Glass, Window Glass, and Mirrors
            You need your Blue Juice and a dry cloth to clean these items,
            and since you are carrying them with you in your apron, there is
            no need to go back to the tray. To clean, spray lightly and evenly
            with Blue Juice and wipe with a dry cloth until the glass is dry. If
            you don't wipe it completely dry, you will leave streaks—and if
            you don't use a very dry cloth, you are wasting time and your
            energy since it will take you longer to wipe the glass dry. When
            we say spray lightly, we mean it. Glass or a mirror cleaned with
            a  quick  light  spray  of  Blue  Juice  gets  just  as  clean  as  a  mirror
            drenched  in  it.  It  just  takes  two  or  three  times  longer  if  you
            overspray!    So  don't.  Replace  the  Blue  Juice  sprayer  after  each
            use— back where it was on your apron loop.

            Cobwebs and Doors
            As  you  continue  around  the  kitchen  moving  to  the  right,
