This is in wikihow, that means it works, right?
It works for grime but not if something is stuck in there. Then youll need draino(sulfuric acid)
>>2973733this is the recipe for washing your chicken before seasoning use the powerful combination of bleach and ammonia for positive cleaning. allow the mixture to soak in your sink basin for a few hours prior for maximum effect
Cover drain with plunger, fill basin with hot water and dawn, plunge vigorously, repeat as many times as necessary
>>2973733Depends on the clog. If it's just hair? Maybe. If it's grease? No.
Did someone say clog?
>>2973733This will only work if the clog is very near the drain and loose. If it's past the p-trap, it's not going to work. If it is in the p-trap, you might as well just remove it and clean it by hand. This is a woman who doesn't want to get her hands dirty "fix".
>>2973733Acid + Base = Neutral. Why would it dislodge anything?
>>2973734draino is not sulfuric acid, it's basically thickened bleach. it used to be a complex mixture of powder that you dumped down the drain. not sure if you can get powdered draino anymore.sulfuric acid is very nasty stuff, I would not use it to clear a drain. it can stink you out of house and home. ask me how I know.
>>2973835You can make your own, or you could just get a massive tub of caustic soda and use it on its own.
>>2973733Shit never works for me.
>>2973733>hand
>>2973733good enough, brown hands and stronger acids have had poor reactions in the past
>>2973733I don't get why normgroids are so fascinated by bubbles or fizzing and think neutralizing a base and acid and turning it into water somehow cleans anything.I constantly see this in those "cleaning hack" videos and I seethe every time.
>>2973960This. All the mixture does is bubble fir a bit, then dies.
It makes mustard gas you fucks op dont do it
>>2973794the idea is that you put the soda or a slurry of soda down into the drain. then you add the acid so that it foams up. the gas evolution is meant to physically dislodge the clog.it usually never works
>>2973733This makes mustard gas
>>2973733Yes. If the goal is the creation of a warm sodium acetate salt solution.Next. Lemons. Why aren't you wiping them on your walls yet?
>>2974267What if mustard gas is good at decloging tho
As a service plumber I regularly run into 'we used draino a few times'cool now your easy to remove hair clog is a melted mess of protein I can't grab on toif you really want to not hire a plumber just buy a handcrank 50' snake for $30
>>2976983>protein I can't grab on toThen that's not the clog. The clog is deeper and needed a longer snake drill thing.Just use hot water and chemicals, a plunger, and then flush immediately with at least three buckets of water.That snake drill thing is gross.
>>2976985>Then that's not the clog.sure, but when you instigate a thick matt of protein the pile up in the drain it causes other things to get stuck and then you have a clogit's a terrible problem solving decision>Just use hot water and chemicals, a plunger, and then flush immediately with at least three buckets of water.if drain ain't draining this isn't a thingyou have to mechanically break the blockage
>>2973794The magic of chemical reactions.
>>2973733Of course. Has wikihow ever been wrong about anything?
>>2976966Mustard gas is great for declogging your lungs. Big Pharma doesn't want you to know this.
>>2973743don't do this, it creates beautiful crystals
>>2973733Don't do thisIt makes volcanoes
