The recipe for cleaning window frames that has taken the internet by storm

An Instagram user with the very clean name Putzmarie Maria Lust has shared a simple yet ingenious concoction that literally "eats" dirt off plastic surfaces. The recipe requires just three ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon of dishwashing detergent
  • 2–3 tablespoons citric acid

Mix everything together (preferably in a used cup, because this stuff true revives), apply to the surface, rub with a sponge and… boom! A foam that almost sings an Ode to Joy.

Window frame cleaner – why does it work?

No, we're not in a chemistry lab - we're in your kitchen. Baking soda is known for its stain-removing properties, while citric acid dissolves limescale and disinfects. When you combine these two ingredients with the cleaning power of detergent, you get a real foam bomb against dirt. And yes, the warning is in order: Watch out, it foams!

What can you use this trick for?

Besides window frames (especially those that have become discolored due to the sun, smoke, or... the realities of life), you can also use this mixture to clean:

  • Plastic garden benches
  • Outdoor shelves
  • Kitchen surfaces (although be careful with stone materials)
  • And something else that catches your eye and screams “wash me!”

Bonus tip:
If you feel like you don't have time to clean – use that as an excuse to experiment for a few minutes. The foam that appears is fun enough that you almost forget you're actually cleaning. Who would have thought that one day you'd be performing magic like Harry Potter on your balcony, just with a sponge in your hand?

Conclusion

Cleaning is no longer boring. With a little natural chemistry and a lot of foamy fun, you can restore the shine to surfaces that have long since lost it. And if you also impress your friends on social media with your magical transformation – so much the better.

Your plastic windows will thank you. Quiet, but shiny.
