چگونه از اب اکسیژنه برای تمیزکاری هرچیزی استفاده نماییم

ساخت وبلاگ

We use water for cleaning so many things. It efficiently wipes and washes away a great deal of the dirt and spills that occur around the house. But how much can just water or even soapy water do? It often won’t remove the tough stains built up on your kitchen countertop, nor can it clean your toilet so that it’s germ-free.

Compared to water (H2O), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has an added molecule of oxygen that gives it an advantage point.

Hydrogen peroxide can easily clean and sanitize your toilet and make your countertop shiny again. It can clean your dirty chair fabric and get a musty smell out of your carpet, closet and cupboards.

Phew. So much from a product that is readily available at your nearest grocery or drug store and incredibly cheap, too.

But availability and low-cost are of secondary importance when it comes to cleaning up your house. What’s more important is you can use this solution anywhere – from the kitchen to the bathroom, from the laundry to your garden. The multipurpose hydrogen peroxide is the go-to solution for all your cleaning needs.

Below are various ways you can use hydrogen peroxide to clean nearly anything and everything around your house.

Using 3% hydrogen peroxide is advisable for these cleaning methods. Most stores carry this concentration.

In the Kitchen

Method 1: Disinfect and Clean Countertops

Is your kitchen countertop losing its shine or is it completely covered with remnants of greasy food and pasta sauce? Worry not when hydrogen peroxide is here. Hydrogen peroxide along with its sidekick baking soda works magic to disinfect and clean countertops that have seen better days.

Things you’ll need:

things you'll need to use hydrogen peroxide to clean countertops

  • Hydrogen peroxide (cleaning agent) – 2 tablespoons
  • Baking soda (abrasive and polishing agent) – 1 tablespoon

Step 1. Mix hydrogen peroxide and baking soda

mix hydrogen peroxide and baking soda

  • Put 1 tablespoon of baking soda in a small dish.
  • Add about 2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide to it.

Step 2. Stir and use the paste to clean your countertops

stir and use the paste

  • Mix it well to form a thick paste. Make sure the paste is not runny or else the mixture will start to run off after applying it on the countertops.
  • Use a sponge or a rag to scrub the paste around on your countertop, then let it stand for some time.
  • Clean the paste and loosened grime off with warm water.
  • If there are stubborn stains, let the paste sit overnight and clean it up in the morning.

Method 2: All-Purpose Cleaner

Making an all-purpose-cleaner with hydrogen peroxide is child’s play, and the rewards it generates are awesome.

Be it your baking dishes, lunchboxes or burned pots, anything and everything in your kitchen can be cleaned and disinfected with this solution. It’s the simplest (and the best) thing you’ll ever do to clean those greasy aluminum baking trays that have had a burnt mark since forever.

Really easy to make and use, this will forever change the way you clean your kitchen.

Single-Step Treatment: Clean the dirty areas with diluted hydrogen peroxide

dilute hydrogen peroxide with water and use

  • Pour 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide along with 1 cup of water into a spray bottle. If you’re using a large spray bottle, you can adjust the quantities but make sure the ratio of hydrogen peroxide to water is 1:1.
  • Using hydrogen peroxide directly on aluminum trays, lunchboxes, burned pots and other items may lead to rust spots. Diluting it with water will prevent rust from forming.
  • Spray the solution on the areas you need to clean.
  • Use a sponge or a rag to scrub the area clean.
