Woman's trick for making stained baking trays look brand new - and it only costs 2p

When it comes to cleaning, we've seen a number of impressive hacks, tricks and tips emerge over the last few months.

One mum recently taught us how to get stains out of our white shirts, while another showed us an easy way to leave your oven door glimmering with a £2.50 product from Aldi.

And now someone else has come up with a method for removing dirt and grime from old baking trays, without spending ages scrubbing at them.

The best part though is that it'll only cost you 2p.

Yes, really and a 2p coin is all you need to try it out for yourself.

Louise Wright shared the interesting cleaning method on the Facebook group, Hinch Army Cleaning Tips, posting before and after photos to prove that it works.

She wrote: "Don't bin baking trays.

"I spend a fortune on baking trays because I buy the cheaper range and they don't last long being marked by tough cooking stains. But I tried the 2p trick going about and it worked."

Louise then went on to explain exactly what you need to do, saying: "Rub baking tray with the 2p and then wash as you would with daily dishes.

"It works, takes away the burnt marks left from baking/cooking. No more binning and replacing."

Hundreds of people liked and commented on the post, thanking Louise for sharing the tip.

One person replied: "Fabulous, thank you."

Another said: "OMG the money I've wasted throwing them away."

"Will give this a go now," vowed someone else. "Thanks for sharing."

A third branded it a "game-changer".

Similarly, a different user said the 2p trick also works on removing lime scale from the end of taps - and we're bet that's not all it's useful for.
