Prepare the cleaning mix
First, prepare a cleaning agent that will perfectly remove the burnt marks on the dishes. In an empty bottle or other container with a neck, pour 1 cup of Coke, sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of baking soda, add 2 tablespoons of dishwashing liquid and 1 tablespoon of table salt. Mix all the ingredients properly and let the loose ingredients dissolve completely.
Wrap the container in plastic wrap
Put the burned pan in a plastic bag or bag and pour the prepared cleaning agent on all the burns. Then tie the packaging material tightly around the handle of the pan into a tight knot and leave it on for about 30 minutes.
Cleaning up
After this time, open the plastic bag and you will surely be pleasantly surprised. Most deposits will be completely gone. When the deposits of dirt are large, it is sufficient to remove their remains with gentle movements of a wire brush or the coarser side of a sponge under running water. Finally, rinse the container properly with clean water, dry it with a towel, or let it dry on its own.
Use the power of vinegar and baking soda
Vinegar also works perfectly for burns on dishes. If your pan has burned inside, first pour a little water on the bottom, then the same amount of vinegar and bring to a boil. After about 2 minutes, remove the pan from the hotplate and pour off the remaining liquid. Then pour baking soda into the empty pan, moisten it a little and let it work for 10 minutes. Finally, clean the pan with a sponge and rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Ketchup also works
Although it is not quite common, you can also use regular ketchup to effectively remove burns. It contains acetic acid, which is strong enough to relieve burns.
And how exactly to use ketchup? Apply it in a thin layer to the affected areas and leave it on for at least 15 to 20 minutes. Then gently clean the pan with a sponge and rinse as in previous cases.
