Ingredients
- Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
- Water
- Soft cloths or microfiber cloths
- Non-scratch sponge
- Small bowl for mixing a paste
- Soft-bristled brush, such as an old toothbrush
- Measuring spoon, if needed
- Gloves for cleaning, especially if you have sensitive skin
Instructions
- Store baking soda in a dry, sealed container and label it clearly as a cleaning supply.
- When cleaning surfaces, test an inconspicuous spot first, especially on painted, polished, coated, or delicate materials.
- Sprinkle baking soda dry for deodorizing or mix it with a little water to create a paste for tougher cleaning jobs.
- Apply the baking soda paste with a non-scratch sponge or soft cloth, following the direction of the surface's grain if applicable.
- Rinse or wipe away the baking soda residue thoroughly to avoid chalky buildup.
Notes
Always keep separate supplies for cleaning and cooking to prevent contamination. Ensure to wash hands after handling baking soda, especially if it becomes airborne.
