Clean the faucet with lemon
Lemon as we all know it is a natural food with many healthy properties, you can even plant it in a cup. However, it is not its only virtue since it is widely used as a companion to cleaning products. To be able to use it in the taps, we only have to cut it in half and rub it on the surface. It is important to do this until the lemon releases all its juice. We leave a moment acting and finally we rinse with water. Lemon is high in citric acid so it helps clean and disinfect in minutes. Even the much hated tartar that builds up.
White vinegar
It is usually classified as a cleaning product that has several uses. Is that white vinegar has antibacterial properties and acidic compounds that make it the ideal product to remove stains from faucets. To clean taps naturally With vinegar we just have to dilute it a little in water and moisten this preparation in a cloth. Then we have the cloth ready to rub it in the places we want to clean.
White vinegar with coarse salt
Coarse salt is a widely used element to remove stains and dirt from various surfaces in our home. But if you want to achieve better results when cleaning the taps, you can make a paste with white vinegar and coarse salt. Together these elements are enhanced, achieving a deeper cleaning. Once we have this paste, what we must do is apply it on the surface that we are going to clean and let it act for approximately five minutes. Then we rinse with warm water and we can pass a clean cloth to achieve shine.
Vinegar with flour
Vinegar is magical, we can even combine it with flour to clean taps, especially those made of bronze and brass. Its properties facilitate the removal of lime stains and achieving better cleaning for longer. For this we must make a paste with a tablespoon of white vinegar in a little flour. Then we must rub it through the taps and let it act for five minutes. At the end of this time we rinse with water and dry with a clean cloth.
Salt water for your faucet
The combination of water with salt is ideal to clean those splashes on the toothpaste taps and lime stains that accumulate. To do this, what we must do is add 2 tablespoons of salt in a cup of hot water, then we must rub it on our taps with the help of a cloth. If we want to make sure that our taps look like new, we can repeat this process daily.
Bicarbonate of soda
Baking soda is one of those elements that is never lacking in every home. Its qualities make it the ideal element to clean and disinfect, even those stains that remain on the surface over time. To use it, what we must do is mix the bicarbonate with water until we achieve a consistent paste. Then with the help of a toothbrush we rub it through the faucet and let it rest for ten minutes. At the end we rinse and that's it, they will be like new.
Baking soda and vinegar
As you have already read, these two components are powerful cleaners but together, achieve a lethal combination for any stain that we have on our faucet. The only disadvantage of this combination is that it works by soaking the objects and not wiping them as we have mentioned. For this we must use:
- 1/3 of cup of baking soda (40 g)
- 1 cup of white vinegar (250 ml)
- 1 bag
- 1 rubberized wire
What do we do with this?
- We must make the mixture of vinegar and baking soda in a container. It is important to let it rest for a few minutes as it has an effervescent effect.
- Then we add the mixture to our bag and put it in the head of our shower. To prevent it from falling, we use the wire to tie it and make it firm.
- We let our mixture act for approximately three hours, if possible to leave it overnight even better. After this time we brush our taps and it will be shiny.
