For a non-toxic and much cheaper alternative to national cleaning brands, many have turned to recipes for homemade cleaners. Cleaning solutions created from common household items such as isopropyl alcohol and vinegar can bring surprisingly effective results. To top it off, the mixture is pet-safe and environmentally-friendly.
Prepare a well-ventilated area to mix the ingredients for your homemade cleaner. Wear rubber gloves when handling the ingredients.
Add 1 cup of warm water to a spray bottle.
Add 1 tbsp. of white vinegar and 1 cup of isopropyl alcohol to the bottle. Mix the solution well.
Use the solution to clean glass, windows, mirrors, stainless steel and other hard surfaces. The solution will be streak-free because the alcohol evaporates quickly. Its effectiveness rivals national brands without the added chemicals.
