15 amazing ways to use Coca-Cola
SHINE UP YOUR OLD COINS
If you are a coin collector, you'll love this. Just leave your old coins in a glass of Coke and watch the tarnish dissolve in front of your eyes.
IMPROVES YOUR COMPOST PILE
Accelerate the decaying process of the compost pile by pouring a can of Coke over it. The sugar will feed the beneficial micro-organisms that break down the organic matter.
TOILET CLEANER
You can make the task of cleaning toilets easy by pouring Coke into the bowl and leaving it there for an hour. The carbonate in the drink removes grime, leaving your toilet sparkling.
REMOVES BLOOD STAINS
Coca-Cola can be used to remove blood stains. In fact, some claim that it's used as a cleaning agent at crime scenes.
PEST CONTROL
Get rid of slugs, snails, wasps and ants with a bowl or cup of Coke. They'll be attracted by the sugar, then either die from the acid content or drown in the liquid.
CURLY HAIR
As crazy it may sound, you can curl your hair with Coca-Cola. Just pour the flat soda in your hair, let it sit for a while and rinse it off.
HAIR COLOUR FADER
Want a lighter shade of the colour you dyed your hair? A rinse in Coke will do the job.
COLA FOUNTAIN
How about a little bit of fun with your favourite soft drink? Just add some Mentos to the Coca-Cola bottle to get an amazing fountain.
COPPER CLEANER
If your copper utensils have lost their sheen, soak them in Coca-Cola for an hour. The acid of the drink will make the utensils shine without scrubbing.
SKIN GLOWING AGENT
Take a tablespoon of Coca-Cola, mix it with your daily lotion and apply liberally to get glowing skin.
REMOVES GREASE STAINS
The acidic content of Coca-Cola is particularly effective in removing greasy stains from fabrics.
CHEWING GUM REMOVER
In case you ever end up with chewing gum in your hair, no need to get an unwanted haircut. Pour some Coke on it and let it sit for few minutes. The gum will come off easily.
RUST-REMOVAL AGENT
The phosphoric acid in Coca-Cola helps removing rust from metal. Just soak the metal in the drink for a while and scrub it.
