Thanks for putting this up. For some years now I have used vinegar to remove hard skin on m feet, mostly malt vinegar. After washing tootsies soak some cotton wool with it and give the area a good dab a d allow to dry naturally , the smell soon goes honest! but it can take several weeks to work.
I read about it in a small book about100 uses for vinegar and there's me thinking it was only good for sprinkling on fish n chips lol.

Vinegar is a great thing for cleaning round the house. Eg glass, windows, sinks and limescale in kettle. Brilliant and cheap. But also lovely on fish and chips
