[wanabidii] Strange Uses Of Coca-cola

I found these unusual purposes of Coca cola. It is worth reading.

Did you know that you can use Coca Cola for many purposes, Yep, you
read that right, there's more than one use for a coke, in fact, it has
a whole lot of other uses, like busting rust, cleaning clothes… heck,
you can even heal yourself with a coke!


1. RUST BUSTER
-Coke is an excellent rust buster. If you have some small objects that
need de-rusting and you have no rust-buster on hand, all you have to
do is soak the iron(object) overnight in coca-cola and give a good
scrub in the morning.

-You can also use rough textured cloths dipped in coke to clean
different objects

1b. How to Loosen a rusty bolt:

You have a rusty bolt that's giving you a hard time and you want to
loosen it? Nothing simpler as long as you have your trusty coke at
hand. Just pour on some Coke and wait.


2. CLEANING
-Coke can be used to remove grease, blood stains, nasty smell like
fish and other nasty odours from clothing and fabrics. Just add a Coke
to your laundry and there you have it.
