Brilio.net - Water scale often sticks to a number of furniture, including plastic buckets. This scale is formed from mineral deposits such as calcium and magnesium found in hard water. When the water evaporates, these minerals are left behind and form white spots that are difficult to remove. As a result, buckets and other furniture look dull and dirty even though they are often cleaned.
The problem of water scale not only reduces the aesthetics of furniture, but can also affect its function. Water scale will cause white spots that can make the surface of the furniture rough and uncomfortable to use. In addition, water scale that accumulates in large quantities can make furniture more difficult to clean and more quickly damaged. Plastic buckets, for example, can become more fragile and prone to cracking if water scale is not immediately addressed.
To overcome water scale on furniture, especially plastic buckets, there are several ways that can be done. An Instagram user @cleaning_vibes_homes once shared it further through one of the uploaded videos. He admitted that he only relied on one kitchen ingredient to make a bucket with scale shiny and clean again.
