The Science Behind Coca Cola’s Versatility
Coca Cola’s acidic nature (with a pH around 2.5), carbonation, and presence of phosphoric and citric acids make it effective at dissolving mineral deposits, lifting stains, and breaking down grime—making it a surprisingly useful household tool.
1. Cleaning Stubborn Stains from Toilets
Pour a can of Coca Cola around the toilet bowl. Let it sit for an hour, scrub with a toilet brush, and flush. It effectively breaks down stains and leaves the bowl clean.
2. Removing Rust from Metal Surfaces
Soak a cloth in Coca Cola and place it over rusted areas. Let sit for a few hours or overnight, then wipe clean. The phosphoric acid reacts with rust and removes it easily.
3. Degreasing Kitchen Appliances
Apply Coca Cola to a cloth and wipe down greasy surfaces. The acidity cuts through grease. Rinse with water to remove any residue.
4. Polishing Tarnished Silverware
