Using a brush is highly recommended to apply this solution to make it more even. After the solution is applied, let it sit for a while so that the active ingredients work to dissolve the rust. This process helps make the dirt that sticks easier to clean without the need for extra effort.
For maximum results, an old toothbrush can be used to scrub the rusty area. This brush is effective in reaching small parts that are difficult to clean with a cloth or sponge. With a slow rubbing motion, the crust and rust begin to lift from the surface of the stove.

This stove cleaning trick can certainly be a solution for many people who experience similar problems. In addition to being easy to do, the materials used are also very affordable and available in the kitchen. With regular maintenance, the stove can stay clean and durable for a long time.
