How to use Coca-Cola so that it corrodes rust?

Surely many housewives had heard that it was possible to remove rust with cola. Corrosion easily spoils the appearance of things, while shortening their life. Therefore, people regularly invent new ways to deal with it.

For severe contamination, it is still better to use specially designed products. But sometimes for cleaning there are enough ordinary products that can be found on the shelves of any store. Cola is a versatile product that removes stains from chrome surfaces, plumbing, and even fabrics.

A bathroom

When cleaning the toilet, pour 1-2 liters of cola into the bowl so that the liquid covers the entire limescale. Leave overnight. Then wash the most problematic places with a toilet brush, and then drain the water. Cola is convenient in that it helps to remove not only stains, but also a persistent unpleasant odor.

When processing a bath or sink, it is enough to wipe them with a napkin, liberally soaked in soda, leave for some time and rinse with water.

An expiring drink will not work. Only fresh cola corrodes rust quickly and efficiently.

Car

With the same success, Pepsi will come to the aid of motorists. If the glass processing liquid does not cope with its task, you can take a drink and carefully apply it on the spots. After some time, the plaque will begin to dissolve. Then we remove the remaining soda from the glass with a dry cloth.

In exactly the same way, cola is used to eliminate corrosion on the bumper and battery. Only instead of a napkin should you take a hard sponge.

Small items

Small items, such as cutlery or coins, are cleaned in a prepared plastic container. All products are carefully placed in it and filled with liquid so that they are completely hidden. After a day, the appliances will become much cleaner. All that remains is to wipe the surface thoroughly with a sponge or towel.

While products are being processed, they must not be touched. Let them lie quietly while soda dissolves plaque and rust. If it was not possible to remove the stains from one time, the procedure can always be repeated.

An old, rusty bolt that loosens poorly should be wrapped for several hours with a napkin dipped in Coca-Cola. After wipe with a clean sponge and try again to unscrew.

It should be borne in mind that not all stake surfaces remove rust equally easily. From chrome or sanitary ware, red streaks are cleaned with a bang, but oxides directly from iron are reluctant to leave - it takes much more time.

Why is cola used for cleaning?

Some people, seeing how a drink washes rust, refuse to buy it. Say, this is a solid chemistry, from which you can easily get a stomach ulcer. Fears, of course, are greatly exaggerated. If you use Pepsi or Coke in a limited amount, and not 1-2 liters every day, the harm from such a drink will be no more than from any other soda.

But then a logical question arises: what about its cleaning properties? The answer is simple: cola is the most publicized drink among soda. Any lemonade has similar qualities, because it contains citric acid. Many housewives know how this product easily cleans fat and other stains.

The effect of the use of cola may be slightly greater than the rest due to the content of phosphoric acid.It minimizes the risk of re-emergence of corrosion on metal surfaces, forming a protective film on them. But there is not much difference between them.

In what cases is the result missing?

Seeing how cola and rust interact with each other, housewives can be inspired and try to use it to remove other spots. But it was not there. In some cases there is no good from this drink.

Coke can be safely removed to the side when removed:

• fat and oil - the usual detergent will help here;
• paint or ink - alcohol and specially designed drugs will better cope with this problem.

Also, cola will be useless against bacteria and germs. You can get rid of them only with the help of disinfectants.

Coca-Cola should definitely be categorized as universal drinks, which with equal success can be sold in the food and household departments. Due to its unique taste, it takes pride of place on any table. And her ability to clean a rusty product will be appreciated by every housewife looking for a solution to the problem.
