Brilio.net - Home floors can be made of various materials such as ceramic, granite, marble, terrazzo, and cement. Among all these choices, ceramic floors are often a favorite because of their cool and durable nature. In addition, ceramics are available in various types and colors that can be adjusted to the design of the house.
Keeping floors clean and shiny is important for comfort. Floors should be swept daily and mopped at least once a week, especially if they are frequently walked on. Usually, people use water and cleaning fluid to mop. However, there are times when very dull floors cannot be cleaned only by this method.
An internet user named Zulaikha shared her experience on YouTube about cleaning a dull garage floor. After trying various methods, she found a simple trick using kitchen dregs. This trick has actually been used by people in ancient times to clean cement floors, but according to Zulaikha, this trick is also effective for ceramic floors.
"Apart from being easy, (this method) is also cheap. But it makes our floors shiny," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube Zulaikha Pratiwy on Friday (11/22).
The kitchen dregs that can be used to clean the floor are the remaining grated coconut. Zulaikha said, besides being able to make it herself after squeezing coconut milk, she also usually gets this ingredient from coconut milk traders or neighbors who have finished holding a celebration at home.

Before using coconut pulp, sweep the floor first to remove dust or other dirt. Next, sprinkle the coconut pulp directly onto the floor and rub the coconut pulp using your hands. Reported from coconut-merchant.com, coconut pulp contains natural oils that are antibacterial, making it effective in removing stubborn stains on the floor.
"Just rub it, but the rubbing must be gradual," added Zulaikha.

After all the ceramic parts are scrubbed with coconut pulp, set aside the coconut pulp with a broom and dustpan until clean. After that, it is guaranteed that the floor that has been cleaned using coconut pulp will be shiny and smooth like new again.
