Can harsh chemicals be used on tower racks?

As a common item in the bathroom, the material and characteristics of towel racks are crucial for selecting and using cleaning products. Generally speaking, most towel racks are not suitable for cleaning with irritating chemicals for the following reasons:
Firstly, irritating chemicals may cause damage to the material of the towel rack. Towel racks made of different materials have different chemical resistance, and some materials such as iron and copper may be susceptible to chemical corrosion, leading to surface coating damage or rusting. Although materials such as plastic and aluminum alloy are relatively corrosion-resistant, prolonged exposure to irritating chemicals may also cause surface discoloration or aging.
Secondly, using irritating chemicals to clean towel racks may leave harmful residue. These residues may not only affect the cleanliness of towels, but also pose a potential threat to human health, especially for families with children or sensitive skin.
Therefore, when cleaning towel racks, it is recommended to use mild and non irritating cleaning agents, such as soapy water or specialized bathroom cleaners. These products not only effectively remove stains and bacteria, but also protect the material of the towel rack and extend its service life.
