Dirt accumulates rapidly in the kitchen. Greasy stains and water streaks are particularly troublesome. These stains aren't the easiest to remove, especially if we've neglected them a bit and haven't wiped down the cabinet fronts regularly.

There's a simple Korean method that can help keep cabinets clean. After using it, the kitchen furniture will practically shine with cleanliness.

One product and the problem is solved. This method is a hit

Koreans tend to avoid store-bought chemicals, focusing on natural products and homemade solutions to eliminate dirt. How do they maintain clean kitchen cabinets?

To remove greasy streaks, they wipe the cabinet fronts with regular cooking oil or baby oil. Then they thoroughly clean the furniture with a cloth soaked in warm water. The next step is to make the kitchen shine. For this purpose, they prepare a mixture of half a cup of vinegar and water. They soak a clean cloth in this solution and wipe the furniture again. The final step is to dry the furniture to remove any excess homemade polishing liquid.

Shiny cabinets

There are many other simple and effective methods similar to the Korean technique.

One of the easiest is using dishwashing liquid and warm water. Just mix these ingredients and wipe the stained areas with a cloth or sponge. Another effective solution is baking soda, which, when combined with water, creates a paste that perfectly absorbs grease. This mixture not only removes stains but also leaves surfaces fresh and clean.
