Baking soda is a versatile and eco-friendly household product that can transform your tiles, leaving them sparkling clean and shiny. Whether it’s for your bathroom, kitchen, or any tiled surface, this simple yet effective cleaning method will help you achieve professional-grade results without harsh chemicals. Here’s how to use baking soda to bring out the best in your tiles.
Materials Needed:
1/2 cup of baking soda
1/4 cup of white vinegar
1 liter of warm water
A soft sponge or brush
A clean microfiber cloth
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Prepare the Cleaning Solution
In a bowl, mix the baking soda with warm water to create a paste. This paste will act as a gentle abrasive, perfect for removing dirt and grime from tile surfaces.
2. Apply the Paste
Spread the baking soda paste over the tiles using a sponge or brush. For heavily stained areas, let the paste sit for 10-15 minutes. This allows the baking soda to break down stubborn dirt and stains.
3. Add the Vinegar
Pour white vinegar directly onto the tiles or spray it over the baking soda paste. The chemical reaction between baking soda and vinegar creates fizzing, which lifts dirt and grease effortlessly.
4. Scrub and Rinse
Gently scrub the tiles with your sponge or brush, focusing on grout lines and problem spots. After scrubbing, rinse the area thoroughly with warm water to remove any residue.
