Secondly, you need to heed your parents’ advice and take care of your things. Regular cleaning costs not much more than your time and can take care of things that cause rust, which seemed to be a big cause of the ousting of many of these ‘Qs. As well as this, regular cleaning will also help you avoid nearly blowing up your house.

Also, invest in a good quality cover. If your ‘Q isn’t stored in a garage or shed then it definitely needs a heavy duty cover. Standard covers from experience, shred at the first sight of wind but they’ll be great for use as dust covers if they’re stored inside. A good quality heavy duty cover might cost as much as $50 but they’ll double the life expectancy of your loved one.
