Hey there! I bet you've been staring at those gold taps in your bathroom or kitchen, and now there's this annoying green stuff on them. Well, let's dive right in.
The green on your gold taps is likely tarnish or corrosion. It's not the end of the world, and there are ways to deal with it.
●Vinegar and Water Solution: Mix three parts water and one part white vinegar. Dip clean cloths in this solution and cover every part of the taps with them. Let the cloths sit on the taps for about 15 minutes. Then, gently wipe off the taps using the damp cloths. Avoid using any scrubbing tools that could damage the shiny gold topcoat. If necessary, repeat the process until the taps are clean and shiny. After that, rinse the taps with clean water to remove any vinegar residue and dry them with a towel to prevent watermarks.
●Dish Soap: If you don't have vinegar on hand, you can use dish soap. Add a few drops of mild dish soap to a bowl of warm water. Dip a soft cloth into the soapy water and wring out any excess liquid. Gently wipe the gold - plated taps, making sure to clean all the surfaces. For hard - to - reach areas or stubborn stains, you can use a soft - bristled toothbrush dipped in the soapy water. After cleaning, rinse the taps with clean water and dry them thoroughly.
●Toothpaste or Shampoo: For more stubborn green gunk, especially on knurled knobs or hard - to - clean areas, you can take off the knobs and give them a toothbrush bath with either non - abrasive toothpaste or shampoo. Then dry them thoroughly with soft paper towels or a microfiber cloth. Just don't use silver or jewelry polish or cleaner, as it will accelerate the deterioration of the plating.
