Brilio.net - Household equipment that has an important function is a shelf or cupboard. This furniture is not only useful as a place to store cutlery, but can also increase the aesthetic value of the kitchen and help maintain its tidiness. The various models and qualities cause different price variations on the market.
Dish racks made of aluminum and stainless steel are common choices. Available in various sizes, this type of rack can serve as the main storage area or as a place to dry dishes after washing. Its placement is usually close to the sink area or kitchen sink.
Despite being a tool used every day, dish rack maintenance is often overlooked. In fact, regular maintenance and cleaning are essential for dish racks to last a long time, just like other kitchen equipment.
Intensive use causes dust to easily stick to the dish rack. Exposure to used washing water that is not immediately dried can cause discoloration to yellow and rust to appear. This condition is potentially dangerous because cutlery contaminated with yellow stains or rust can contain bacteria and dangerous dirt.
The solution to cleaning a dirty dish rack can be found through a tutorial shared by a YouTube user named Fitri Ani. The video she uploaded demonstrates how to restore the cleanliness of a dish rack that previously looked dirty and dull.
"How to clean shelves with just one rub and they'll be shiny," he wrote.

The first step you need to do is mix the two ingredients. The ratio of one tablespoon of cleaning fluid and one teaspoon of citric acid, stir until well blended. Then apply to the dish rack. Let stand for fifteen minutes for maximum results.

If the soap mixture is evenly mixed, you can immediately apply it to the entire surface of the dish rack. Use a brush or small brush to apply, to make it easier. Let it sit for fifteen minutes for maximum results. After that, scrub using a sponge that has been given a few drops of dish soap.
