Cleaning Tips

I was searching the Internet for a homemade or alternative to dishwasher soap because I ran out and my baby was down for his nap and couldn't run to town and get some. I came across this really neat website. It had a lot cleaning tip. Here are a few I am going to try and it will cut costs on cleaning supplies.

1- After thoroughly cleaning ceramic shower and tub walls. you can wipe the tiles down with a small squeegee until dry. After they are dry, get a bottle spray on turtle type car wax, spray it on your tiles, spread it around, let it glaze over and then use a clean terry cloth to wipe and shine. The water and soap will bead up for at least 3 months.

2-Use wintergreen alcohol to clean glass windows and mirrors. You can buy it at the dollar store on the cosmetic aile. Mix it 4 parts water to 1 part alcohol. Can use it on glass shower doors. It leaves a great smell after using.

3-You can make your own dishwasher soap, use equal parts borax and baking soda. Put 2 tablespoon in each load. Also in the rinse cycle use vinegar to get your dishes to sparkle.

4-If you have a stinky fridge in a camper or at home. I left hamburger in our camper fridge on accident and my husband unplugged the camper and the freezer thawed and left a really bad odor. I put coffee grounds in shallow dishes in fridge and freezer and it took all the nasty odor out. Or you clean it with bleach and hot water. Sprinkle baking soda on it and let it set for a day or so. Pour vinegar over the baking soda after it has set and scrub it out. Repeat a couple of times and it should take the odor out.

Every now and then I will leave cleaning tip and other tips.
