I can't wait to tell you what I discovered yesterday. I read somewhere on the net about using Dawn dish washing liquid and vinegar as a cleaning solution. I wish I could give credit where credit is due, but I can't find where I saw this. My apologies to the brilliant person who I am unable to name, who came up with this idea.
This makes a fume free and safe cleaning solution. Heat 8 oz. of white vinegar in the microwave til hot, like you were reheating coffee. Pour in a spray bottle (recycled, of course!) with 8 oz. blue Dawn dish washing liquid. Gently mix together so you don't create suds - just tip back and forth til mixed. Spray on surface of sink, tub, anything you want to clean that you can also rinse. Wipe with cloth or sponge, and rinse.
I used this with a "magic eraser" type sponge to clean my tub and surround. I sprayed this on and the dirt and soap scum wiped right off. Did you catch that?! "Soap scum wiped right off!" Do I sound happy? Yes, it does not take much to make me happy. I could not believe how well it worked! I was buying expensive, crunchy granola cleaner at Whole Foods. It was expensive and the fumes still made me choke. I don't think it was as crunchy granola as I thought. This is dirt cheap, healthier to use and does a better job than any cleaner I've ever used. You gotta try this!
I'm off to see what other amazing things I can find to do with Dawn dish washing liquid. I mean besides washing dishes. I've heard it pre-treats wash well for stains.........
