Huh good shout. I don't have q dishwasher but might get the liquid for cleaning.

I would presume that powdered dishwasher detergent is as concentrated as you can get?

Its really true wasteful really that most household cleaning products is mostly water. Instead you could buy a years worth in concentrated form and dilute with tap water instead of ship around shit tons of water adding to the carbon footprint.

I have narrowed down my cleaning repertoire to strong hand dishing soap, baking soda, white vinegar, linseed oil soap (for the wooden floor) Depending on the application I just mix the appropriate things

For every product there is an expert who can tell you in great detail about its long history and amazing facts.

The video on producing the pencil is an excellent example of this.

It's all about the top material. It has to be harder than the materials you use on top of it ib pots and pans.

But, whatever material is harder scratches the other, so if you're not scratching the top of the stove you're scratching the bottom of the cookware... Unless you're crazy and use lube on your stove lol

I'd take scratches on the bottoms over scratches on top tho

I second this.

My old stove came with a razor scraper for cleaning. I bet the manual for yours recommends using one. Maybe show her the manual. I wouldn't have been able to clean it thoroughly without the razor.

As someone who did auto detailing decades ago, razors are how you get everything off glass.

And then triple-Zero (000) steel wool. Don't use anything other than actual 000.

And then there are plastic razor blades for getting stickers off paint.

I would hope she is aware of the existence of shaving blades which are the exact same things except glass is far stronger than skin.

Carbon steel is also not as hard as borosilicate glass.

You should teach her about Mohs hardness scale.

I've used a razor to scrape down our shower door before. If you're not careful you can inadvertently scratch things with the corners of the blade. Ask me how I know...

Has your wife shaved her legs before? Then she is accustomed to this interaction

Razor blades aren't usually hard enough to scratch tempered glass in the first place, they are used professionally to clean scale on outdoor windows.

😮

Man, that picture is peak nostalgia in every detail. I want some just to look at it and travel back to better times...

The stuff we have comes as a dry powder and u just put water in it making a thick slurry that cuts right through all the shit. Its also got like sand abrasive shit in it.
