Although the idea of crafting your own cleaning slime might seem counterintuitive, it's actually a clever solution for reaching and clearing out tight spaces where crumbs and debris tend to accumulate. Not only does it serve as an effective cleaner, but it also offers a fun DIY project that you can enjoy making and playing with.
To get started, follow these simple steps:
-
Begin by combining Borax with 1 cup of water in a bowl, ensuring thorough stirring until the Borax fully dissolves.
-
In another bowl, mix a 4 oz. bottle of Elmer’s glue with ½ cup of water and add 8 drops of food coloring. Stir until the color is evenly blended.
-
Pour the Borax and water mixture into the glue and food coloring bowl, combining the two mixtures.
-
Now, knead the mixture with your hands until it forms a cohesive dough. To avoid potential staining from the food coloring, consider using plastic gloves. Keep kneading until the mixture is no longer wet and sticky.
-
Press the freshly made slime into areas such as keyboards or air vents in your car or home to effectively trap dust and dirt particles. Store any unused slime in a large plastic bag for future cleaning sessions.
With this homemade cleaning slime, you'll not only achieve a thorough clean but also have some enjoyable crafting and playing time along the way.
