A dishwashing liquid such as Sunlight is something no household cleaning arsenal should be without. Not only is it ideal for cleaning cutlery and crockery, cutting through greasy pots and pans, and ensuring that your serve wear is spotless, but it actually has a few great hacks beyond its traditional scope of work. Here are dishwashing liquid hacks that showcase the versatility of this humble product:
Clear foggy lenses
People are required to wear protective face masks as a measure to protect against the spread of viruses in the face of the global pandemic. People who wear glasses are faced with a dilemma, the fogging of their spectacles and sunglasses while wearing a mask.
The solution? A drop or two of Sunlight dishwashing liquid applied directly to your glasses in a thin but even layer. Apply it to both the inside and outside of the lenses with a good quality microfibre cloth. Allow the soap to dry for a few minutes and then buff it out with a fresh cloth. Make sure to use a cloth that doesn't shed or leave bits of cotton on the lens.
This process will help to prevent your spectacles from steaming up when you wear a face mask. It will also work perfectly to prevent your bathroom windows and mirrors from fogging up.
De-grease and pre-treat laundry stains
Oily stains can be difficult to remove from clothes. Although the solution lies in your detergent cupboard, it’s not one that you would necessarily expect to help with your laundry. Apply a small amount of dishwashing detergent to the stain. Next, gently rub the fabric together to evenly spread the soap and allow it to sit for a few minutes. Finally, rinse and wash the item according to the wash care label instructions.
