Gerry,
Do you have a wet/dry shop vac?
If so this has worked for me many times. Get some wet rags or paper towels
and hold them tight around the shop vac hose and the sink drain. The suction
should pull the clog out and into the vac.
If not a small plunger can also help. Most people do not use a

Well, I guess it's time to do something about the screen on our
sliding door. It runs off the track every other month...

Are the rollers on the top and the bottom rides in a track with no rollers?
If this is the case you may have a bent track at the top. If the rollers at
the top are bad you may need to lift up on the door to pull the bottom out
of the track and when you lift up on the door the rollers should clear

One of the more interesting things about duct tape, is that, in fact, it
was actually called duck d u c k tape. It was originally developed as an
all-purpose, somewhat water resistant, adhesive for the military. It was
named for the cotton duck fabric backing. After WW II HVAC guys started
The wd40 mention protecting garden tools reminded me of a great tip.

places like McMaster Carr will answe the phone and send you some rather
strong enzimes to put down there, that will not hurt pipes but really do
eat protein. Works for me.

I do not know the details, but there are compressed air cans for plumbing. You
have to cover the overflow valve, and then blow it out.
As I do not have one of those, I would try removing the trap and the shop vac
method. I have all of those tools.

I have ordered three hi-marks and ended up with textured fabric paint.
I believe that the old hi-marks is no longer made and many of these sites
are substituting the fabric paint. Since I want to have my table saw
I'm opposed to using force, like compressed air and pressure water to remove
clogs unless you have good newish plumbing.
Try drain cleaners first, with great care of course, they're all nasty.
We've not found the enzimes work except for perhaps helping to keep drains

replaced, but cannot see how to get the rollers out of the frame.

If the pipes are old, be careful with the compressed air. My friend
was trying to clear a kitchen drain with one of those things and the
drain pipe broke inside the wall.

Hi Betsy
Do you know who manufactured your door, if so ring and ask them do they have
replacement rollers for that make of door.While on the phone ask how to
remove them.
If you do not know the manufacture then lift off the door and stand it up
against a chair so you can inspect how the rollers

You can use Dymo tape and make a Braille letter l. Cut this out and you will
have a line that you can stick on anything that does not get too hot. You can
then label this line with another Braille label. This works great on table saw
