Be honest: how long has it been since you cleaned door handles?
Most housewives either ignore the existence of this interior detail that requires cleaning, or remember about it no more than once a month.
Of course, you shouldn’t follow their example, because even such a small detail contributes to the overall appearance of your apartment.
Besides, if you know a couple of tricks, the procedure won’t take you more than 5 minutes.
First, remove dust by wiping the handles with a damp cloth or rag. Stubborn stains should be treated with a special solution.
Metal handles
To clean the metal, you will need a deep container, which should be filled with 100 ml of water and soda and salt (1 teaspoon each).
Soak a cloth in the resulting solution and clean the door handles. Finally, wipe them with a dry cloth. You will be pleasantly surprised by the result – the dirt will disappear without a trace.
Wooden handles
Wooden handles are treated with a small amount of wax or vegetable oil.
Take a piece of flannel, soak it in oil and wipe the fittings. After this procedure, the handles will not only be clean, but also shiny.
