A household cleaner that uses only two ingredients!

I found this shower cleaner recipe recently and wanted to give it a go to see how it worked.

This stuff is amazing!!

Not only did it make my tiles shine brilliantly but I have used it on other things around my home too.

It cleans stainless steel like nobody's business.  I tried the laundry trough, kitchen sink, outside of the oven, stove top and the top of the exhaust fan. They are all so nice and shiny now. The grime wipes off very easily.

I also used it on the timber kitchen cupboards and fridges and once again it worked a treat, the same with the top of the benches, they are nice and shiny too J

If you would like to try this recipe, here are the ingredients;

One cup of vinegar (I added more)
Two tablespoon of detergent (dish soap)

Put into a spray bottle and give a little shake to mix ingredients together.

How to use;

For best results on tiles, spray on and leave for a little while before rinsing or wiping off. 

For other cleaning, use as you would a normal cleaning product.


I am definitely going to make more of this cleaner and I will need to change the label from "shower" to "multi purpose cleaner". J

Let me know what you think if you try this for yourself.

Happy cleaning folks!
