Wood ash, often seen as a simple waste product, actually has many surprising benefits. It can neutralize odors, clean windows, enrich garden soil, and even serve as a natural degreaser.
But its uses don’t stop there! Wood ash can also effectively clean windows and mirrors, leaving them spotless in just a few minutes.
Spotless Windows and Mirrors
With this trick, you can maintain the windows and mirrors in your home using only wood ash. This gentle abrasive will effectively remove grease stains, dust, and stubborn marks, leaving your surfaces in impeccable condition.
Before you begin, it’s important to prepare the ash to avoid damaging delicate surfaces. Sift it carefully to remove large residues and impurities, resulting in a fine, easy-to-handle powder.
Once this step is complete, take a soft cloth and dampen it slightly with water. Sprinkle a small amount of sifted ash onto the damp cloth, being careful not to use too much. A small amount is enough to remove stains, fingerprints, and other residue that dulls the surface.
Then, gently rub the damp cloth sprinkled with ash on the surface of the glass using circular motions. Once cleaning is complete, use a clean, dry cloth to wipe your windows or mirrors. Thanks to this tip, they will regain their shine and brilliance.
Using wood ash for cleaning is not only effective but also environmentally friendly. By adopting this method, you eliminate the need for chemical cleaners that are often harmful to both health and the planet.
