By tradition, guests are always invited to the table, or at least for tea. And how unpleasant it is that this same tea is poured into a cup with tea bloom. After such a visit to the guests, the first desire is to check their dishes at home and see if everything is clean and shiny.

How to properly and quickly wash the dishes, preserve her beauty and get rid of fat, scale and scale?

Where to begin?

The answer to this question depends on several factors:

  • Do you have a big family and do you often have to wash dishes?
  • how do dishwashing products act on the skin;
  • what means are used more often: national or industrial;
  • how many are greasy dishes;
  • do I have to wash the bottle (for example, children).

For a large family, the dishwasher will be a chopstick. But even without it, most of the population still manages and copes. To do this, just need to stock up with tools for dishes, protect your hands and a small amount of patience.

In addition to gloves and apron, you should stock up with various sponges, brushes, brushes, washcloths with metal threads. Depending on preferences for all sorts of dishes, liquid and dry detergents will be needed to remove plaque, grease, and burnt food. Some types of dishes can and should be washed with cold water but it is still difficult to do without hot water. In the absence of running water, you will need a basin or dish. In nature, this role is usually performed by a bucket.

When choosing any method of washing, you need to remember that from all chemicals preparations should be rinsed under running water for at least 15 seconds.

The following rules should also be followed:

  • Before washing dishes should remove all food residue, so as not to clog the sink.
  • Do not forget about the sorting and order of washing dirty objects.
  • Each dishware has two sides: internal and external, and both of them need to be washed.
  • Cleaning greasy utensils is much easier after soaking.
  • Drying is carried out in one of two ways: natural drying in an inverted form or drying with a towel.

We choose the means

Modern industry offers a large number of detergents and cleaning products. When choosing, do not forget that:

  • high price is not a guarantee of quality, but a means of advertising;
  • a large number of components increases the risk of an allergic reaction to the drug;
  • the strong smell of flavoring can hide the chemical smell of substandard components;
  • Bright fluorescent (acid) colors of liquid detergent compositions are the result of the use of a large number of dyes to which allergies can negatively react.

So, transparent, odorless gel is a good choice for those who care about their health. And who does not want to risk them at all, can choose folk remedies.

There is a huge number of popular ways to clean dishes. Here are some:

  • Dry mustard can be used in undissolved form as an abrasive. It is rubbed on the surface and left for 10 minutes, then rinsed with running water. Mustard can be diluted in water and soak dishes in it. Dried food is perfectly removed in this way.
  • Baking soda is used similarly.It can scratch the surface, but it copes well with burnt food, stubborn stains, tea and coffee bloom, yellowness on enameled pans, dark stains on tableware. And soda removes unpleasant odors from any dishes. To do this, it must be dipped in soda solution (1 tablespoon to 1 liter of water).

  • Citric acid will clean, bleach, decontaminate, remove scale and remove unpleasant odors. 5 g of citric acid, diluted in 1 liter of water, will help to wash household utensils.
  • Wood ash is a rare component today. But it is her best to clean the dishes in the country, in nature, during a hike. The remnants of the fire perfectly cope with the fat in the pot and smoked bucket.
