Remove Mineral Buildup From A Tap With A Vinegar-Soaked Cotton Ball

If your tap is spraying water all over the place when you turn it on, it could be caused by mineral buildup. This vinegar trick will get things running smoothly again.

In this video from the HouseholdHacker YouTube channel, you’ll learn plenty of uses for everyone’s favourite wonder liquid, including a clever way to get your faucet running like new. All you need to do is soak a cotton ball in some distilled white vinegar, then attach it to the end of your tap with a rubber band. Let it sit for about 15 minutes so the vinegar can work its magic and dissolve the mineral buildup clogging things up. When it’s time to take it off, be sure to wiggle it around a little to scrub off any leftovers. Your faucet should now be clog-free. This trick is similar to the bag of vinegar on your shower head trick, but in smaller form.
