One of the tricks that makes life easier for housewives is rubbing the joints between tiles with a candle.

While you can clean tiles or wash other surfaces in no time, you have to tinker with these details. But if you don't clean the seams between the tiles, the tiles themselves will look sloppy against this background.

We will tell you how to save time and effort when cleaning the joints between tiles.

This trick will work on any surface. You can treat the tiles on the wall in the bathroom, toilet or the work area in the kitchen.

You can do the same thing along the joints of the tiles laid on the floor.

The whole point is that no matter what composition is used to decorate the joints, bacteria begin to accumulate here, and in the bathroom, the risk of fungus and mold also increases.

White joints look impressive, but their whiteness disappears after just a few weeks, even on the walls.

Even a carefully cleaned room will look untidy because of this.

To avoid spending all your free time and energy on cleaning, you need to treat the space with paraffin.

Thanks to this trick, an invisible protective layer is formed at the joints, which prevents the penetration of moisture, dust and dirt.

In addition, after processing, the seams shine pleasantly. To enhance the protective effect, after processing the seams of the candles, you need to heat the paraffin with a household hair dryer.
