Other Cleaning products :)

So first of all I have to tell you guys that I couldn't find my book with all the recipes for my cleaning supplies so picture me running around the house gathering up all the bottles (because I write the recipes on the outsides of the bottles.) and now they are all sitting here by my feet waiting their turn.

@;-- first of all the one I use the most is liquid dish soap and water in a spray bottle. I know it doesn't sound like much but it will take care of most grease type messes
* water
*about 1-2 Tb of liquid dish soap

Spray it on the surface and give it time to break down the grease.
My favorite use for this to clean my stove top I sprinkle baking soda on the stove top and then spray it with my dishsoap spray untill it's all wet... then I leave it over night :) the next morning I spray it somemore because it hardens like plaster and then wipe it off. It's amazing!

I also use the dish soap spray to clean the bath tub... grease is grease

@;-- Vinager Water

1 part Vinager
1 parts water

I use this when I don't want to worry about soap suds and making sure all the soap is gone. Vinager also removes bio-type matter although not as well but it is also a disinfectant I use this for quick clean ups int he Kitchen
I also use it as an air deoderizer....I know I know your thinking "right like the smell of vinager is better than whatever I'm trying to get rid of" but it's amazing how fast the smell disapates (sp?) and the other smell (the one yoor trying to cover up) goes with it :)

@;-- Window Cleaner

1 1/2 tsp Cornstarch
1/4 c Vinager
2C water
2-3 drops Lemon Juice

I will never go back to store bought cleaners again!!! this stuff is awesome!! just one thing to remember...Shake before each use the cornstarch settles in the bottom.

@;-- All purpose cleaner

ok this one is good for that deep cleaning. it is alot harsher then the others and does have a slight smell but it will remove Sharpie marker so I keep it around :P

1t Borax
1/2 t Washing Soda
2Tb Lemon Juice
1 C Hot water

I usually mix this in a jar and then pour it in the spray bottle. It turns a dark yellow color this is normal.  It can be used on any hard surface.

@;--hope I have covered everything... please don't be shy about questions :) @;--
