1. Create the Base Mixture
In a bowl, combine 100ml of dishwashing liquid and 100ml of coke.
Mix these ingredients thoroughly to form the base of your powerful bathroom cleaner.
2. Prepare the Baking Soda and Salt Mix
In a glass, mix 1 tablespoon of baking soda and 1 tablespoon of salt with 50ml of water. Stir well until the ingredients dissolve completely.
3. Combine the Mixtures
Pour the salt and baking soda mixture into the coke and dishwashing liquid concoction. Stir everything together to create a powerful cleaning solution.
4. Transfer to Squeeze Bottle
Decant the mixture into a squeeze bottle. I used an old coke bottle for this and poked a hole in the lid. It's a simple hack that works wonders!
5. Apply the DIY Bathroom Cleaner
This versatile cleaner can be used all around your bathroom – on toilets, sinks, showers, tubs, and tiles for sparkling results. Squeeze the mixture onto the desired areas and use a cloth to spread it evenly. Leave it on; the longer, the better.
6. Tackle Stubborn Stains
For stubborn stains, soak a paper towel in the mixture and place it on the stained area.
Let it sit for a while, then give it a good scrub with a sponge, cloth, or, for toilets, use the toilet brush.
7. Rinse Thoroughly
Once you're done cleaning, rinse the area well with a wet cloth to remove any remaining dirt and detergent.

Bett Absher on Dec 13, 2023Was wondering if the acid in the coke is bad for the enamel and the finish on fixture.

Em on Dec 13, 2023For $1.25 (new raised prices from Dollar Stores) you can get The Works toilet cleaner. A quick squirt from a large bottle and a swirl of a toilet brush does all of the work without having to mix a bunch of stuff. Bottle lasts a long time. I removes grime from toilet tanks as well. A quick once over with a disinfecting you use after you wipe off faucets, handles etc that SHOULD be sanitized weekly will clean the sink up quickly. No mixing done and done.
