Dedicated to everyone dreading the cleaning day before the move-out day

Well, this post does not look like a typical ‘guy’ post, but should be helpful to every student like me who needs to clean the apartment before moving out so that he/she can get back the complete apartment deposit. Here I will allow the pictures to do most of the talking…

Note: My cooking won’t create the mess you see below, it’s my roomie’s. It’s just that I took up the responsibility to clean the whole kitchen.

Things required to clean this mess: 1-2 rolls of Bounty, $0.75 Arm & Hammer Baking Soda box and water (preferably warm).

Before

Q. How to clean this?
A. Make a thin watery mix of water and Baking Soda and pour all over the surface. Let it stay about an hour or so and wipe it to a squeaky clean surface with Bounty. The result is for you to judge in the below pics.

This (Reader’s Digest) is the source from where I came to know about this simple magical application of NaHCO3. Read along more in that link if you are interested in exploring more uses of this harmless (you can eat it, how more harmless can it be) chemical.
