Aluminium foil is not just for food packaging. In fact, it can be a great bathroom cleaning aid.
Aluminium foil, often referred to as silver paper, is an easily available, cheap and versatile product that is always good to have at home.
Most people use it to wrap food to keep it fresh in the fridge, but it has many other uses, especially one that works surprisingly well in the bathroom.
All you have to do is tear off a piece, roll it into a ball, and take it to the bathroom.
It only takes a moment and then the “magic” happens. The effect is very satisfactory.
A simple and effective cleaning trick
Roll a ball of aluminium foil and simply start rubbing it on the tap, shower or other items in the bathroom that may have limescale on them.
In just a few movements, the tap will shine like new. Limescale deposits and cosmetic residues quickly disappear and the mixer tap regains its lustre.
You don’t have to worry about the foil scratching delicate surfaces. On the contrary, the tap becomes even smoother and shinier. And best of all, you won’t need any special products or cleaning agents.
All you need is a ball of aluminium foil, some water and a moment. The effect is really impressive, just like after a professional cleaning.
If you don’t believe it, try it and try your bathroom.
If you don’t have aluminium foil, you can try baking paper. It should have a similar effect in removing limescale from, for example, a light fixture.
