The miracle of green dishwashing liquid can not be underestimated. It can be used in many ways beyond cleaning dishes.
- Cleaning greasy hands - let's say you have repaired your bicycle and have grease on your hands. Pour some dishwashing liquid directly into the palm of your hand (do not add water) and rub the liquid around the greasy spots until it turns white and then grey. Rinse off with warm water.
- Getting rid of oil stains—If you get oil stains on your clothes, immediately apply dishwashing liquid liberally to the spot. Tap it so the liquid sinks into the material. Do not rub the material. Let it soak into the material for at least twenty minutes before putting it in the washing machine.
For some reason, washing machines work better than handwashing. But if the material is too delicate,of course, hand wash in as hot a temperature as the material allows. - As a lubricant for the manual pump of the toilets in boats - a few drops of liquid on the shaft of the handle once in a while makes it easier to pump.
- Cleaning a greasy, dirty bicycle chain - apply the liquid sparingly to the chain links. Wipe excess grease and dirt away with a rag. Add oil or clear lubricant once the worst is off, and wipe off more of the old grease and dirt. Once the chain is clean, apply the new lubricant sparingly. No water is used in this process.
