If you want to make cleaning easier, search for basic materials that you can mix together to create your own cleaners. It only takes a few minutes, and you may make any recipe' as needed. I enjoy utilizing DIY cleaning solutions in our house since it makes cleaning simpler and I know precisely what I'm doing.
Here are two simple All-Purpose Cleaning recipes – both can be used to clean multiple surfaces, my preference is the soap-based cleaning spray. These are multi-purpose and can be mixed up in larger batches for bucket-cleaning or used in a spray bottle.
SOAP BASED ALL-PURPOSE CLEANING SPRAY – use this for most surfaces, including stone and marble, no rinsing is required 1 1/2 cups water 1/4 teaspoon castile or dish soap if you find that 1/4 teaspoon isn’t enough soap based on your hard/soft water, increase up to 1 teaspoon optional: 3-5 drops essential solution.
Clean doors, baseboards, and other major surfaces with a double, triple, or quadruple with a small bucket and cloth.
Combine the items in a spray container, shut it, shake it, and CLEAN!
VINEGAR BASED ALL-PURPOSE CLEANING SPRAY – use if you prefer vinegar or have tenacious stains such as water spots, mineral buildup, or other stains; do not use on stone surfaces.
If you're using a spray bottle, use the following proportions: 50:50 water to white vinegar
3/4 cup of liquid
white vinegar, 3/4 cup
3-5 drops essential oil (optional)
Clean doors, baseboards, and other major surfaces with a double, triple, or quadruple with a small bucket and cloth.
Combine the items in a spray container, shut it, shake it, and CLEAN!
Add a little soap to a scrub brush or sponge and use as you clean to create a sudsing and scrubbing motion with this recipe. Rinse and scrub.
TOOLS:
cup for measuring
spoon for measuring
a funnel - this just makes pouring liquid components into a spray bottle easier.
BOTTLE FOR SPRAYING
BAR MOP TOWELS for wiping surfaces – my personal preference are the Premium Bar Mop Towels and the Cleaning Cloth Kit, but I also like using a sponge or a Swedish dish cloth as well.
