American Foursquare tries out a radical cleaning method for vintage subway tile and saves a bathroom!
30% hydrogen peroxide solution...suicide blondes have known about its magic powers for years.
If you are keen for green cleaning methods, 3% hydrogen peroxide (the less strong kind) is one of those best bets. It's fume-free, odorless, antibacterial and nontoxic. What's there not to like?
- certain stains from fabric (including blood, perspiration and red wine) - jewelry - cutting boards - fruits and vegetables - shower curtain liners
...and now, white subway tile.
Be careful though! Hydrogen peroxide is also a bleach so always test an inconspicuous area before using.
Check out the before and after shots for the subway tile in the entries below from American Foursquare. And let us know what you clean with hydrogen peroxide!
