Seven Things You Can Clean with Coca Cola

in Clean & Tidy, Guest Post, The Good Life on 06/09/17

If you are a big Coca Cola addict you might want to skip reading this article. I am not sure who thought of all of these weird, but at the same time very practical ways of using Coca Cola as a cleaning product but the truth is that these tips really work. Coca Cola may not be good for your health, but you still might consider buying this soda after reading these seven things you can clean with the help of this fizzy drink.

coca cola

Pearly White Toilet Bowl

That is right. Can you imagine the most popular drink in the world can actually be used to clean your toilet bowl. If you need something strong to dissolve the stains in your toilet bowl just put some Cola in a spray bottle and coat the entire inside of the bowl. Let it sit for an hour (or longer to maximize the effect) and flush afterwards. You will be amazed how white and clean your toilet bowl will be.

Remove Rust

You may have heard this tip and thought it must be mumbo jumbo. Well, let me tell you- it is true! If you don’t believe me try it. Soak whatever object you need clean in Coca Cola for twenty-four hours. The next day, wash off the stickiness of the Coke with water. It is proven that Coca Cola has the properties to dissolve the rust particles and make them easily removed.

Remove Oil Stains on Clothes

This sounds a bit wild. Wait, are you still doubting the power of Coca Cola? The next time you try to remove an oily stain from your clothes try pouring Coke on the stain. Let the soda sit on the clothes for thirty minutes. Then toss the clothing in the washing machine like usual. You can also try adding Coca Cola to your normal detergent in the washing machine.

Burnt Grease on Frying Pan

Thanks to the grease-removing properties of Coca Cola you can use this to clean your frying pan as well are saying Hornsey deep cleaning. Just pour one can of Coca Cola in the frying pan and let it sit on the burner on a slow heat for thirty minutes. Next, grab a good old-fashioned scourer and scour the burned food and grease away.

Clean the Terminals of Your Car’s Battery

Corrosion of the battery of your car can lead to difficulty with starting your vehicle. Next time- try the Coca Cola trick. Carefully pour a can of the fizzy drink over each of the terminals of the battery and let it sit like that for awhile. Grab a toothbrush and scrub the corrosion off the terminals. After that make sure to rinse any Coke residue off..

Remove Gum from Hair

Getting gum in the hair is quite an unpleasant mistake to deal with. Many people believe there is no other solution but to cut the hair off. Don’t freak out, put the scissors down and grab the Coca Cola instead. Make sure the drink is cold, dip the hair string to which the gum has stuck. The Coke will magically turn the gum into a hard and non-sticky ball which is easily removed without cutting your hair.

Remove Marker Stains Off the Carpet

To clean a marker stain off of carpet you must soak the stained spot. Next, with toothbrush then rinse with soapy water. Simple enough!

After the many benefits of Coca Cola you may want to reconsider some of your health choices. Maybe it is for the best to quit drinking Coke and use it for cleaning purposes instead!

Hi friends! We hope that you are having an amazing Hi friends! We hope that you are having an amazing week and are having a blast gearing up for the holidays ahead. With 2020 coming to an end, we can all relate to how tough this year has been. However, the initial tendency as a parent might be to overspend in an effort to compensate for whatever did or didn't happen in 2020. ⁣
⁣
LET ME GIVE YOU THIS REASSURANCE, MOMMAS- it is NOT necessary to buy more during the holidays in order to compensate for whatever you feel your children lacked this year. ❤ ⁣
⁣
Instead, we highly suggest minimizing your Christmas stress by implementing a minimalistic mindset each year, but this year in particular. This year has blessed us with the specific opportunity to tune in and be more mindful of those you love, just like our Savior does for us. So take this time to BE more present instead of spending extra cash on gifts. We promise it will be absolutely worth it. ⁣

Today I’ve felt anxious. I know i’m not the on Today I’ve felt anxious. I know i’m not the only one feeling this way with the impending presidential announcement... so how do we handle feeling off, anxious or depressed? One of the best things you can do -right this moment- give a hug. Cuddle close to a loved one and hold one another. Breathe deep. And hug for another breath. And hopefully you’ll slowly feel that anxiety release. And feel free to cuddle longer. 😘
