Store-bought scouring creams like CIF are often thick, tough to rinse, and hit-or-miss on tough grime. As someone who's tested countless cleaning hacks over years of home maintenance, I've found a reliable alternative: a simple homemade version that's powerful, rinses cleanly, and costs pennies.
Grab white vinegar and baking soda – this duo works wonders on sinks, basins, and more.
1. Mix 2 tbsp white vinegar and 2 tbsp baking soda.
2. It will fizz briefly – that's normal.
3. Apply to sinks or washbasins and scrub.
4. Rinse thoroughly.
Your surfaces will sparkle! Pro tip: Wear gloves, as the mixture can be abrasive on skin.
