A savvy mum amazed the internet with her clever cleaning hack to revive old pans using Coca Cola, capturing the attention of thrifty homeowners and DIY enthusiasts on TikTok.
Amid rising household costs, finding economical ways to maintain homeware in tip-top shape is increasingly sought after.
The mother-of-three unveiled a brilliant cleaning hack passed down from her grandmother, claiming excellent results which she demonstrated.
Going by the name Jenny, she uploaded a video that went viral, boasting an impressive 5.8 million views, showing her unique method of creating an impromptu yet powerful cleaning solution.
She captioned her video: “Do this and thanks me later,” showing herself purchasing a six-pack of Coca Cola. In the footage, Jenny is seen writing over the clip: “My grandma taught me this,” as she buys the fizzy drinks.
Then she proceeded to combine one bottle of the soft drink with a tube of Colgate toothpaste, leading to a foaming reaction. To manage the froth, Jenny transferred the concoction into a clear glass bowl to prevent mess.
Other users expressed their astonishment and amusement: One commented: “Your grandma teach you this now I will teach my grandma this.”
While another curiously asked: “The real question is what was your grandma doing to figure this out.”
Tapping into previous viral hits, a TikTok user referenced another experiment saying: “Where’s that guy with the stain on his porch that keeps trying different things to remove it?? I need him to try this!”
Other TikTok users took the chance to sing the praises of the popular cleaning product, The Pink Stuff, which is particularly good at tackling stubborn stains.
