We have a north and east exposure living and dining room. Carpeting and upholster- ed furniture have faded con- siderably. An interior decorator told us that the fading is due to sunlight reflected from the stone house to the north of us and from reflected sunlight from: snow during winter months. Would the amber color- ed material be available in win- dow - shades? ' ANSWER: Yes, the amber- colored material is for the pur- pose you mention. It is a very thin plastic material, made into a window shade or "screen"; consult any window shade maker. If you could use fiber- lass curtains over your win- lows; this is now available at many draperies and _ textile stores in a wide assortment of weaves, weights, patterns and finishes. Fiberglas materials are resutant to sun, heat, fad- ing, etc. QUSTION: I placed ruber caps on legs of chrome kitchen chairs. These have discolored my vinyl floor covering, leav- ing deep orange stains that spread. What, if anything, will remove these stains? ANSWER: Only. suggestions I can_offer are the following: Try removing the discoloration with a liquid polishing wax, made by a nationally known manufactur- @, following label directions carefully. If not successful, try using the wax with a fine steel wool, rubbing carefully. Or use a floor-cleaning preparation with the steel wool, followed by immediate rinsing with clear water and drying, then waxing.

ANSWER: Roofing canvas is available from roofing supplies ldealers, together with instruc- tions for its application.
