best drain opener
This is the cheapest and best drain opener I have ever tried! I have very long hair and my drain will be clogged every 2-3weeks and it so frustrating to watch the soapy water draining so slowly while i am taking my shower in my bath tub! This is so easy, just follow the instructions and be done in 2mins!
1. Run hot water to warm up the drain/pipe
2. Pour about a cup of the lye into the drain
3. Run enough hot water till lye dissolved (i actually pour hot water from my electric kettle, remember to keep a distance as there will be some air/powder combustion, but nothing crazy!)
4. Wait for a minute and run hot water again, the drain should all be unclogged!
