However, there is an effective method that will help you easily cope with cleaning old cast iron radiators, Telegraph writes.

To clean the space between the battery sections, you will need an old baking sheet or disposable diapers. Place these materials under the radiator.

Pour soapy water or any other liquid detergent into a bottle and spray it evenly on the battery. Pay special attention to hard-to-reach areas.

Next, take a special brush that is usually used to paint batteries and remove all dirt. Thanks to the shape of this tool, you can easily reach the most inaccessible corners of the battery. Alternatively, you can use a bottle cleaner or an old toothbrush instead of a brush.

Remember that heavily soiled windows can be cleaned quickly and easily without leaving streaks. To do this, use a few effective tips to get shiny windows.
