A wrought-iron wine rack is aesthetically pleasing and functional.
Proper storage impacts the flavor of your wine. A wrought-iron wine rack stores your wine bottles horizontally to keep the cork moist and prevent air from entering the bottle and altering the flavor. Like any other surface, a wrought-iron wine rack exposed to smoke can become smelly, as smoke residue builds up. A smoke smell on your wine rack can easily transfer to your wine bottles. You can avoid this situation by getting the smoke smell out of your wine rack with cleaning supplies commonly found in the home. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Rubber gloves protect the skin from irritating cleansers.
Put on rubber gloves to avoid skin irritation from the ammonia solution.
2. Pour 1 gallon of hot water into a bucket. Add 1 cup of household ammonia.
3. Wet a sponge with the ammonia-and-water mixture. Wash the wrought iron to remove smoky-smelling residue. Use a nylon scrub brush to clean in the grooves and crevices.
4. Rinse the wrought iron by wiping it off with a damp cloth. Dry the wine rack thoroughly to ensure that no moisture is left on the surface.
5. Move your wine rack outdoors or open a nearby window. Allow the fresh air to further deodorize the iron for two to three hours.
