The demonstrator then pours a standard bottle of coke into the pan, letting it soak for a few moments.
They then tip the contents out, revealing that the pan is almost completely clean before rinsing it under the tap leaving it sparkling.
The video has since gone viral receiving over 18 million views and 35,000 shares with seriously impressed cleaning fans sharing their feedback in the comments.

Agreeing a second added: “Guess I will have to get a bottle of coke.”
“I knew coke was good for something besides my taste buds” commented a third.
The reason coca cola break up stains is thanks to the carbonic and phosphoric acid inside.
Several commenters were worried that they should avoid drinking the soda after watching the video, but Snopes claims the amount of acid inside is too small to have any impact on your stomach.
