19. Using Baking Soda to Scrub the Tub

It can be challenging to keep your bathtub clean, especially if you have dirty water sitting in it every day. On the other hand, nothing is more unpleasant than a filthy bath, and nothing is more pleasant than a clean one. So, you've probably attempted this technique before. Baking soda, cream of tartar, and lemon juice are mixed to make a paste. It's recommended that you smear it all over your tub and let it for 30 minutes before rinsing it off. Don't get us wrong: the hack works, but who has the patience to wait 30 minutes?

To begin with, you could have spent that 30 minutes are simply scrubbing your tub. This hack means for individuals with a lot of free time. If you don't need to use your bathtub right away, it's worth a shot. However, if you have guests coming to visit and are rushing to keep the place clean before they arrive, this hack will not work. For that, you’re better off with an old-fashioned scrub brush and some good bath cleaner – by the time they arrive, it should be gleaming and ready for their bubble bath! So, this isn’t a nasty hack; it’s just not at the top of our lists to use every day.
