Return to article: How to Clean Faucets
on 8/8/2006 I wish people would wake up and see how wonderful vinegar is for cleaning. I got a spray bottle and put a 1/2cup of vinegar and a 1/2 cup of Ajax liquid dish soap and added water. You would not believe how it cleanstile, stainless steel, chrome, glass shower doors, etc. It even cuts scum! It's also great on stoves. If you don't like the smell of the vinegar add a little scent to it.
on 11/22/2005 For cleaning my faucets, I use paper towels soaked in white vinegar. Then I put a zip bag around them, and leave it over the faucet for a few hours. I come back later and rinse the faucet off. It's kind of like having self-cleaning faucets.
