Old T-Shirts As Swiffer Replacement

RE: Old T-Shirts As Swiffer Replacement By Jeremy (Guest Post) tthompson, The Swiffer WetJet solution bottle has a twist-off cap -- its just 'locked' with little plastic tabs to prevent you from figuring this out. :) Just take a pair of vise-grips, pliers, etc. and unscrew the cap once, and the tabs will break/bend off, alliowing you to remove/replace the cap at will. Then, you can refill the bottle with your favorite cleaning solution (Murphy's, Vinegar, Windex, etc) mixed with hot water. Works much better than the stuff you buy & much cheaper too! -Jeremy Posted on 07/14/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Old T-Shirts As Swiffer Replacement By camo_angels (600) Profile Contact I have used old dishcloths, which scrub even better! I put it on damp, spray cleaner on the cloth or area, and work with it. sometimes the washcloth falls off, but I use that for little areas (or move in one direction) Posted on 07/05/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Old T-Shirts As Swiffer Replacement By (Guest Post) Wash cloths work well, too. We built a new home a few years ago with "hardwood" floors that were not what we were told they would be. Every water spot showed. Using wet swiffers were breaking me up and left wet marks on the floors. After using a lot of products, I discovered using Bruce floor cleaner on a wash cloth with my swiffer solved the problem. At least until the next drip hit the floor!

The pantyhose has great static and picks up hair and dust really well. You can also just use the pantyhose, but sometimes I like the extra thickness of the t-shirt.

Swiffer "cloths" are not a "green" product!!!!

When dirty, just wash in machine and use again. Posted on 07/03/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Old T-Shirts As Swiffer Replacement By Jackie (Guest Post) Great Idea! I use swifter all the time and the replacement cloths do get expensive. Thanks for the frugal tip! From One Massachusetts lady to another. I'm from Norton, MA. Hugs, Jackie Posted on 07/03/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Old T-Shirts As Swiffer Replacement By tthompson (117) Contact This is a great idea! I love the swiffer products but they are expensive and wasteful. This is a great alternative to the paper refills. Now if I could just think of a way to replace the swiffer wetjet liquid refills and paper bottoms.....I love how convenient it is but using that is so wasteful compared to normal mopping.
