Creative Uses for Toothpaste

April 16, 2012 by admin0

The main purpose of toothpaste is to clean your teeth and prevent cavities. Currently, you can walk down any supermarket or drugstore aisle and find a plethora of choices. What many people may not realize is that toothpaste has other applications. You can use toothpaste to:

Erase scuff marks
To take off the scuffs from your favorite leather shoes, rub a small amount of paste on the area and then wipe it clean with a damp rag.

Remove gunk from an iron
Sometimes, your iron develops dark goop that can ruin clothes. Scrubbing with non-gel toothpaste can make the iron plate as good as new.

Polish your diamond jewelry
For extra sparkle, use an old toothbrush and paste to make your favorite jewelry shine!

Deodorize baby bottles
After a while, these bottles can start to smell like sour milk. Apply a little toothpaste to the bottle brush and clean the inside like normal.

Clean chrome fixtures
Instead of buying expensive cleaners, just smear toothpaste on your chrome and polish the surface with a soft, dry cloth to produce a gorgeous shine.

Erase crayon marks from walls
If your little Picasso has used your living room walls as a canvas, toothpaste can get rid of these drawings. Grab a damp rag and apply a little paste to the wall. The abrasive nature of the paste will take off the crayon.

Eliminate drain odors
Just as it helps remove the unpleasant smells in your mouth, toothpaste works similarly in your kitchen sink. Squirt the toothpaste into the sink, let it sit a few minutes, and then run the warm water for a clean smell.
