Woman Swears By Dishwasher 'Tin Foil' Hack To Make Cutlery Sparkle

If you’re constantly scrubbing at your silverware and left saddened by the smears, then we have a trick for you.

TikTok user @jojo.butterflylove revealed a must-try hack for those with dishwashers, and who want gleaming cutlery.

Watch the video below.

Sparkling silverware, as if by magic!

How does it work? Well, the tin foil experiences a chemical reaction with the ingredients in your dishwasher tablets.

This results in an oxidation process – the chemicals in the detergent interact with the metal in the foil to create an ‘ion exchange’.

In simple terms, this oxidises any tarnishes in your cutlery and leaves your silverware looking as good as new.

It should be noted that this only really works on real silverware, and not stainless steel cutlery some people have – so try this on your best cutlery!
