Alcohol - A Wonder for Cleaning

Rubbing Alcohol (70% Isopropyl Alcohol) is very inexpensive to use, in our market you get two 16 ounce bottles for $.99. I use Rubbing Alcohol to clean up in the kitchen as well. Makes stainless steel shine and gives nice fresh smell. It is good for quick cleanup and works well when added to soap and water to clean floors.

It is wonderful to refresh a sponge or dishrag. Place the sponge or rag in a small bowl and pour alcohol over it. Let sit for 5-10 minutes and they will be clean and sweet smelling again.

The same method can be used to refresh string mops. Place damp mop in a bucket and pour alcohol over to nearly cover. Let stand for 5-10 minutes, ring out and dry. For complete cleaning, wash rag mop in washing machine and dry. Spray with alcohol before using again.
