the BEST multi purpose cleaner mixture!

Okay so I am a huge fan of mixing windex and rubbing alcohol together in a spray bottle (with a little bit of water too) and literally using that EVERYWHERE. It's perfect for toilets, countertops, mirrors, etc. you name it! It disinfects but also doesn't streak which I love.

Instead of buying a bunch of multi purpose cleaners or a lot of specific cleaning sprays, try this! let me know what you think!

If you're looking for an eco-friendly cleaning solution, consider using mixtures containing biodegradable surfactants and isopropyl alcohol. These ingredients not only ensure cleanliness but also help in reducing environmental impact. For optimal results, always follow the recommended mixing proportions, typically around a 1:1 ratio of rubbing alcohol to Windex, and add water as desired. This cleaner works wonderfully for various surfaces, including glass and stainless steel, leaving them streak-free and shiny. Remember to test on a small area if you're using it on unfamiliar surfaces. For enhanced cleaning power, consider adding a few drops of essential oils like lemon or tea tree, known for their antibacterial properties. Make sure to store this mixture in a cool, dark place as exposure to sunlight can degrade its effectiveness. Join the #springcleaning challenge and share your results using this fantastic cleaner mixture with the Lemon8 community!
