Tin foil cleans towel rail rust effectively, say fans

Fans of Mrs. Hinch have shared a simple hack to remove rust from towel rails using tin foil. A Facebook user sought advice on cleaning her rusted towel rack, prompting several suggestions from the group. Many users recommended rubbing the rusted areas with scrunched-up tin foil. Some also suggested combining it with tomato ketchup to enhance the cleaning effect. This method works through a chemical reaction that reverses rust back into metal. Tin foil is an inexpensive solution, costing around £1.33. The combination of tin foil and ketchup utilizes the acidic properties of tomatoes to help dissolve rust effectively.
