07/23/12 QOTD (Cleaning)

Do you have any cleaning tips that you would like to share? I tried the solution below last week and was totally impressed with how well it worked.

• 12 ounces white vinegar
• 12 ounces liquid, blue dawn detergent
Directions:
1.Heat vinegar in microwave until hot and pour into squirt bottle.
2. Add the Dawn soap. Put the lid on and gently shake to incorporate.
3. You now have a powerful cleaning product that will melt soap scum and tub and shower buildup, clean sinks, appliances and just about anything. Just spray it on, scrub, rinse and be amazed. For tough soap scum build-up, spray the mixture on and allow it to sit as long as overnight. Then, scrub and rinse.

I made a batch using 12 ounces of each, but did not use it all and it works best when you can spray it onto the surface you are cleaning when the vinegar is still warm. The next batch I make will only be about 6 ounces of each.

Sounds like a great solution. Don't really have anything, but water, newspaper, vingar for cleaning windows. I forgot using baking soda for scrubbing.

I use vinegar as a rinse in my washer for clothes. It works so well to help the colors stay bright and the whites whiter.

nope. none at all! lol But thanks for your tip!
