Most of the time, not all utensils are suitable. Experts reveal that 4 types of household items should not be cleaned with dishwashing essence.

Dishwashing essence has a gentle oil removal ability and is one of the most used cleaning tools, but not all items are suitable for cleaning with dishwashing essence. The following is an introduction to The Spruce Eats website, four household items that should be avoided with dishwashing essence.

Wooden furniture

Muffetta’s Domestic Assistants' boss Muffetta "Dishwashing essence removes natural grease and wood-protecting paint used to protect wood furniture, which can cause dryness, color change, and may cause long-term damage to the wood."

Wooden furniture should be cleaned with a special wood maintenance cleaner or a piece of damp super-fiber wipe. Regardless of which tool is used, remember to keep the surface dry after the cleaning is completed to prevent excess moisture from damaging the wood.

Calling iron cookware

Gluege pointed out that dishwashing essence can easily decompose the seasoning on the utensil, which is very important for the non-stick properties of the utensil; in addition, cleaning with dishwashing essence may also lead to iron replenishment.

Cleaning the dirt pellet should use hot water and dirt pellet brushes. If there are solid spots left, you can add a little salt on it and then remove it with a dry paper towel.

Natural stone material processing table

Natural stone material processing tables such as marble or garlic are not completely suitable for cleaning with dishwashing. Prerna Jain, the boss of Ministry of Cleaning, said that some dishwashing essences contain acidic ingredients, which may damage the surface of natural stones. Therefore, it is best to avoid using other acidic cleaners, such as vinegar, lemon, etc.

A safer option is to use a special neutral marble or garlic cleaner, or use a warm water and a super fiber wipe, or a few drops of extremely gentle, non-acid dishwashing.

Observant or exquisite porcelain

Jean pointed out that dishwashing essence is equally rough for fine glass and may leave behind difficult soap residues that can be removed. A safer method should be chosen, scrubbing with gentle vinegar and water, and gently wipe special glassware and tableware.
