Brilio.net - Owning a vehicle requires regular maintenance to ensure its performance remains optimal and extends the vehicle's lifespan. Routine maintenance includes oil top-ups, tire checks, electrical systems, cooling systems, engine performance, and more. Well, one of the most important things is to keep the car clean.

Keeping a car clean can be said to be difficult and easy. Routine use of a car will certainly cause the car to get dirty and several problems will arise. One of them is located on the car window. Exposure to rain and heat and daily weather changes can grow mold on car windows.

If it is not cleaned regularly, mold spots will appear on the glass which can disrupt the appearance of the car. Apart from that, mold can also cause interference when driving because it obstructs vision.

If your car's rearview mirror is already moldy, don't rush to the repair shop or car salon to get it removed. You can handle it yourself by using alcohol to remove mold on the car window.

Unfortunately, not everyone has a stock of alcohol at home. There is another way you can remove mold and water spots when it rains, just use 1 food ingredient. You can imitate the method shown by the MAE satuide YouTube channel.

As reported by BrilioFood on Thursday (4/4), to clean moldy car windows or water spots, you only need to use potatoes , you know.

"Using raw potatoes can be used to clean rearview mirrors and car windows in rainy conditions and water spots and fog appear," said the man in the video.

The method is to simply prepare raw potatoes and a knife. Cut the potato into two parts, then use the surface of the potato to rub the glass that is moldy or has water spots.

"Try using raw potatoes, then I rub it or rub it on the side of the car window or on the rearview mirror," said the MAE satuide YouTube channel account.

After rubbing the car windows and rearview mirror with potatoes, you can spray or rinse them with clean water. And, sure enough, after rubbing it with a potato , the appearance of the glass became shiny again.

"So even though I spray it again with water, it turns out the water still runs off or has an effect like taro leaves. So the glass still looks clear," said the man in the video.

The video, which has been watched more than 4 thousand times, has received various responses from netizens.

"I've tried it on the Ertiga... Great uncle...... Cool...," said @berton8282.

"Great uncle, useful knowledge," said @vivoasnidar3311.

How to store potatoes so they don't rot easily.

Potatoes are a food ingredient that is often processed in many households. Sometimes some people stock potatoes for a long time. Here are some tricks for storing potatoes so they don't rot quickly:

1. Proper storage place.

Store potatoes in a dark, cool, and dry place such as a cupboard or basement. The ideal temperature for storing potatoes is around 7-10 degrees Celsius.

2. Do not wash before storing.

Do not wash potatoes before storing. Only moisten potatoes when they are ready to be cooked, as excess moisture can speed up spoilage.

3. Avoid exposure to light.

Keep potatoes away from direct light, as light can cause them to sprout or turn green.

4. Separate from the berries.

Do not store potatoes with berries such as apples or pears, because the ethylene gas released by these fruits can speed up potato rot.

5. Check regularly.

Check potatoes regularly and throw away any that have started to rot or sprout to prevent spreading to other potatoes.

By following these steps, you can extend the shelf life of your potatoes and avoid rapid spoilage.
