In this DIY post, I am going to show you how to clean a front loader washing machine’s rubber seal. But, I have a trick up my sleeve that is an absolute game changer … a sanitary pad.
Yes, this unexpected item is great for cleaning a washing machine’s seal because it prevents the formula from drying out and therefore allows it to work its magic.
Tools and Materials:
Sanitary Pads
Bleach
Gloves
Cloth

1. Soak and Prepare
The first step is to take your sanitary pads and soak them in a formula. I prefer using bleach for its powerful cleaning properties.
2. Surface Cleanup
Before applying the pad, give your machine a quick spray-down with an antiviral and antibacterial cleaner. This helps remove as much surface gunk as possible, ensuring the cleaning process is even more effective.
3. Apply the Sanitary Pad
Now, take those bleach-soaked sanitary pads and place them strategically inside and over the door seal.
The pads not only apply the cleaning solution precisely but also prevent it from drying out too quickly. This ensures that the bleach has ample time to work.
This method also gives you better control, preventing the bleach from splashing inside the machine or on the surrounding surfaces.
