How to use large stocks of cleansing gels
Disinfectants have become one of the most sought after and scarce products during the coronavirus crisis. They were found only with links, delivered to one per customer in big box stores, and even sold on the black market at unprecedented prices. But how many of us have stored the precious liquid or gel for fear that one day we will wake up and not have it in stores? Well now that this mass hysteria has been going slowly and slowly, we realize that we have huge amounts of sanitizer in the house, and it is not as necessary or as important in the presence of soap. But, what else can it be used for so that it “does not spoil”, as the grandmothers say?
Eliminate stains. At the beginning of the school year, almost all mothers are faced with new ink-stained clothing. This is normal and even reversible, so don’t be too quick to part with the new blouse, which is worn only once. Before putting clothes on, rub the ink stain with hand sanitizer. Only then wash the garment. If your child has been careless when using a permanent marker, you shouldn’t be scared either – disinfectant is your friend in this situation too. The good news is that hand gels also do a great job of removing resin stains from various car surfaces, clothing, upholstery, walls, and countertops. Of course, keep one thing in mind with delicate fabrics that can be damaged by alcohol. When in doubt, test a small, more hidden part of the surface. If a stain remains or the fabric corrodes, don’t risk it.
Silver shines. Chrome, steel, and silver shine like new after cleaning with disinfectant. Silver jewelry, expensive silverware, and even car wheels will sparkle if you soak a soft cloth in disinfectant and wipe it down.
Remove tags. Each new item comes with a tedious and, in most cases, large label, richly covered with a durable glue. So even if you manage to tear or remove the paper, there is still an unsightly glue stain underneath. Before breaking your nails in an attempt to remove them by relentlessly scratching or rubbing, apply a disinfectant and scrub with a sponge or towel. Both the sticker and the glue under it will come off almost magically instantly.
Clean the glasses. Prescription glasses and sunglasses often get sweaty, dirty and dusty, and until now we believed that we could only clean them with glasses. However, the truth is that the disinfectant works too. Apply some gel to a dry cloth and rub. Your windows will shine, forgetting about stains and dust on them.
Light a fire. Most disinfectants contain alcohol, which we know is flammable. If you are on a picnic in the woods or in the park, or if you are in a tent somewhere, you will surely need a fire to grill something tasty to eat. Don’t worry at all if you forget the alcohol or don’t sacrifice some of the alcohol that you bring for the aperitif. Spray disinfectant and the fire will ignite.
For mosquito bites. If your skin itches from a mosquito or other insect bite, you can reduce the discomfort by applying a disinfectant. Hand gels also help with abrasions and wounds, and in addition to reducing redness and itching, they disinfect the area to prevent inflammation. Acne pimples are also affected by the disinfectant. However, be careful not to dry your skin and apply carefully before being sure that your skin is not sensitive to any of the ingredients in the product. It is best to put a little liquid on a cotton ball and apply only to the pimple, not the entire face.
Defrost the locks. At low temperatures it often happens that we wake up with frozen car locks. If you don’t have special de-icer sprays on hand, put your hand in its bag and remove the hand sanitizer. The alcohol it contains will melt the ice very quickly and thus unlock your car. If you have difficulty with the lock, lubricate the key with it and it will melt the ice and unlock it.
