£1 Boots item transforms car
Costing just £1 at Boots, shaving foam is one of a few miracle household products that has a dual purpose as a cleaning tool.
Interior decorating magazine, House Beautiful, raved about the closeted cleaning product writing: “prepare to be enlightened, because the grooming essential is actually a brilliant cleaning tool.”
Salt, washing up liquid and shampoo also have the same effect.
They can be used to get rid of various types of stains from wine spillages to chewing gum.
Nic Shacklock, an expert at Online-Bedrooms.co.uk, said: “Carpet stains can be an absolute nightmare to clean especially if they’ve been sitting there unnoticed for weeks.
“These stains can be lifted with some common household items meaning you won’t have to spend a fortune having to get the entire floor deep cleaned.
“Washing up liquid is a great solution to getting rid of mud marks and baking soda can remove any lingering odours.”
