Brilio.net - Rags can be used to clean various stains, one of which is in the kitchen area, such as oil marks. Oil stains on the stove, kitchen floor and cooking utensils are sometimes cleaned with this rag. Even though it can absorb oil stains optimally, in the end the stains actually stick to the rag.
Oil stains that stick to this rag tend to be difficult to remove . Therefore, some people usually wash it with special tricks. One way is to soak a rag in hot water. After all, hot water can dissolve oil stains more effectively, making the rag easier to wash.
But usually, even if you use hot water, there is still oil residue left behind. As a result, the rag becomes slippery or even emits an unpleasant musty odor. Well, the condition of a rag like this makes it less comfortable to use because it no longer absorbs stains optimally.
So, to overcome this, you don't need to worry, there are other tricks you can do when washing oily rags. This trick for removing oil stains on a rag was once shared by an Instagram user @rumah.kamali. Through one of the uploaded videos, he admitted that he only used kitchen ingredients.

Reported by BrilioFood from the Instagram account @rumah.kamali on Tuesday (13/2), the kitchen ingredients used were baking soda, vinegar and dishwashing soap. Well, a number of these ingredients will help clean oil stains without leaving residue. Because of this, the rag becomes rough again.
To use it, simply sprinkle baking soda on the area of the cloth that has a lot of oil on it. Then spread it evenly and press so that the baking soda sticks to the cloth.
