Brilio.net - The bathroom is one of the rooms in the house that is easily dirty due to high humidity levels and constant exposure to water. If not cleaned regularly, the walls will look shabby and filled with annoying yellowish crust.
The crust in the bathroom not only makes it look dull, but it can also be a nest for bacteria and germs that are dangerous to health. The accumulation of this crust occurs due to the mineral content in the water, such as calcium and magnesium, which settles over time.
In addition to water, residue from soap and shampoo that is not rinsed off perfectly also accelerates the appearance of stubborn stains on the walls. Many people usually use special cleaning fluids to solve this problem, but it turns out there is a cheaper and more effective way.
