each room and on the furniture, fixtures, and other items. Since
            there  are  so  many  possible  arrangements,  we  do  not  suppose
            we're  covering  them  all.  We  believe  however,  that  by  learning
            the correct techniques for these typical rooms you'll know how
            to  approach  items  not  specifically  mentioned  here  or  items
            arranged in a different order. We know this because it is much
            more  important  that  you  follow  the  PMC  Rules  we're  teaching
            rather than learn "hints" about specific items. You use the same
            technique  on  a  $5,000  Baccarat  crystal  centerpiece  as  on  a  $5
            garage  sale  vase.    You  may  breathe  a  little  differently  too,  but
            you clean them the same way.

            Warning:
            As duster, you will be touching many items in each home you
            clean.    This  increases  the  chance  that  you  might  have  an
            accident.  Please be careful.

            Our sample living room, dining room, entryway, and hall have
            rugs  on  a  hardwood  floor.  The  bedrooms  have  wall-to-wall
            carpeting.

            Getting Dressed
            Put  your  apron  on  and  load  it  from
            your tray, putting Red Juice on one side
            and  Blue  Juice  on  the  other.  Put  the
            furniture  polish  and  polishing  cloth  in
            your apron. Put your duster in one back
            pocket  and  the  whisk  broom  in  the
            other.  Take  six  to  eight  cleaning  cloths
            and put them in  the apron. (Next time
            you clean, you'll know better how many
            cloths to grab.)

            Managing Cleaning Cloths
            As you start to spray and wipe your way around the room, carry
            the drier cleaning cloth over your shoulder so it's easy to reach.
            When that cloth gets too damp for streakless cleaning (mirrors,
            picture glass, etc.) but is still usable for wiping, rotate it so it’s
            hanging from an apron pocket and sling a new dry cloth from
            your apron over your shoulder. Use the damp cloth for wetter
