Unusual uses of toothpaste

Toothpaste protects teeth and the entire oral cavity from unwanted diseases, replenishment and other unnecessary nonsense. But the use of toothpaste does not end there. Toothpaste has many other useful properties that will certainly be used in everyday life.

Let's say you accidentally made a small chip in the drywall in a rented apartment and the owner is about to come. Well, just a drop of toothpaste and not a hole. For camouflage, you can paint over it with a felt-tip pen of a similar color.

White sneakers or sneakers with white soles get dirty very easily. Especially annoying are these black lines that can’t be washed off. But still, I found a remedy - toothpaste! And we will also need an old (or new) toothbrush. Apply the paste to the brush and back - rub these lines with progressive movements (just like brushing your teeth). Voila - the line disappeared without any difficulty.

This is perhaps the most effective and common method of using toothpaste (after brushing your teeth, of course).I became acquainted with this method when I served in our valiant Armed Forces. A soldier's belt plaque should shine like a cat's bowl. Simple polishing with felt and goya paste is a labor-intensive and not particularly pleasant task. We used to have brass plaques and when we received them from the warehouse it would be dull or sometimes even greenish. We took an old toothbrush, put a little toothpaste on it and cleaned the plaque. A minute and the plaque sparkled.

Where is the application in everyday life?! Here's where: burnt particles have formed on the sole of the iron - they can be removed with toothpaste, while polishing the surface of the iron sole.

Toothpaste perfectly polishes chrome surfaces. If you have chrome surfaces, such as the pipes and mufflers on your motorcycle, take some toothpaste, apply a soft cloth, and buff the chrome surface by hand.

Watches and bracelets, rings and jewelry, chains and other items - everything can shine again with the help of toothpaste! Use a toothbrush in hard-to-reach places, and a soft cloth in easily accessible places.

Toothpaste is an excellent cleaner for sinks, faucets, bathtubs, and pools. A little paste and your bathroom will sparkle like new!

With prolonged use of CDs, small scratches will inevitably appear on them. And then the time comes when the CD becomes “unreadable”. Trouble? No! We'll fix everything. Apply some toothpaste to the surface of the disc. Using a soft towel, spread the paste over the entire scratched surface and “sand” the surface in a circular motion. Rinse off the paste and check the disc.In this procedure, the main thing is not to overdo it, because some toothpastes contain very effective abrasives and granules, which, if used incorrectly, can damage your CD.

Oh no! You have an important meeting tomorrow, or maybe a date, and then, as luck would have it, a pimple popped up. Here again a drop of toothpaste will help us. Apply this drop to the pimple before going to bed. The next morning, the pimple will decrease in size and redness will decrease.
