Brilio.net - The refrigerator door can keep the cold temperature of the refrigerator stable, so that the food ingredients inside can always be fresh. However, there are times when a refrigerator door that is quite old is difficult to close tightly because the rubber has problems.
Rubber on the refrigerator door that is no longer tight could be due to a lot of dirt sticking to it or the texture is too stiff and loose. If it's dirty, usually the refrigerator door can be cleaned with simple ingredients such as baking soda, toothpaste, or dish soap.

So, another alternative, you can imitate the experience regarding dealing with loose refrigerator door rubber as in the upload shared by TikTok @sitisulaiha52. After all, to practice this trick, you only need one tool and you don't need to dismantle the refrigerator door rubber at all.
