Many people notice that even expensive and high-quality faucets can become covered in scale.

Removing it is not always easy.

Besides, no one wants to waste their time dealing with limescale if it can easily be avoided.

As it turns out, you just need to rub the tap with secret compounds. Thanks to this, the mixer will always be clean if you renew the protective layer in a timely manner.

What can be used for this purpose?

Petrolatum

Nowadays, it is less and less common to hear about the use of this product, although housewives of the past used it on a regular basis.

Vaseline has quite a good potential for use at home.

You can use it to protect your faucet from scale. First, wash the faucet in the usual way, wipe it dry.

Apply an even layer of Vaseline on top. After a couple of minutes, take a paper towel and start polishing. The protective layer lasts for 7-10 days.

Candles

If you have wax candles, now is the time to use them. It is suggested to do the same as in the first case: wash the plumbing until it is perfect and dry it.

Then we take a wax candle and start rubbing the mixer. Then we remove the remains with a napkin. The procedure is repeated once every 14 days.

Paraffin candles can also be used, although they are considered less effective.
