Brilio.net - Drinking bottles are important tools for storing water and other liquids so they don't spill. However, repeated use can make the bottle dirty, dull, and yellow, even though it has been washed with soap. This makes the bottle look unattractive and is often not used anymore.
However, dull drinking bottles can be cleaned to make them shiny again. One effective way is to soak the bottle in a cleaning solution consisting of baking soda, vinegar, and dish soap. After soaking, scrub the inside of the bottle. The longer you scrub, the more the crust will disappear completely. Although this method is effective, scrubbing the bottle can make your hands sore.
For those who don't want to bother, you can imitate what TikTok user @diy.lifehacks.id did.
