A lot of things we have at home are made of metal. Metals are everywhere, from the kitchen to the garden and everything in between – metal has a very real presence in our lives and you cannot deny their role in your life and neither can you ignore metallic objects because metals are prone to being damaged by rust. There are steps that will help you prevent rusting, but no matter how much you try there is only so much you can do to prevent eventuality. Here are some tips that will help you with removing rust.
Vinegar for Cleaning Copper
Copper utensils take on a greenish tinge after using it for months. This is rather easy to clean. Just place your copper utensil in the sink and pour a generous amount of white vinegar and then scrub a little salt on the surface. You may need to repeat the process more than once to get the new penny shine, but it will come with a little work.
Removing Calcium Build Up in Metals
Calcium rings that form on metal surfaces have been an age old problem. Water contains calcium and when it drains down it leaves behind a clear mark in the form of rings. Thankfully it is very easy to clean. Take a few wedges of used lemon, hold it flesh first to the metal surface and scrub it a few times. By the time you are done, the rings will be gone and the utensil will smell very fresh as well.
Putting shine back in silver
When you don’t use silver for many months it tends to become dull and dirty. You can put the shine back in silver very easily. Take a little toothpaste, any type works but the traditional muddy type toothpaste works best. Just polish your silver with it and you will have silver dishes and utensils that shine impressively.
For metal stuff that just doesn’t want to leave their dull selves behind, take them to a professional cleaner. Application of chemicals like Aldimine works great on most type of metallic surfaces.
