4- tblspns Lemon ammonia

Pour all ingredients into a clean large gallon size jug (an empty gallon size vinegar jug is great).

Thanks so much for posting this!

Just made up a batch of this. Put it in my empty greenworks bottle. Haha! It looks just like greenworks!

I just mixed up a batch of this and all I can say is 'WOW!' This stuff works great, even on mirrors! Not a streak in sight and everything I've tried it on is squeaky clean! Thank you so much for posting this recipe, Sheila!

[Valerie]

I love it! I clean my counters with it every night, and my glass stove top. In a minute, I'm using it on the floor with my wetjet. (Poor wetjet; it's really just the handle now. I use spray cleaner in a bottle and a microfiber cloth cut to fit the head instead of those costly wetjet pads.)

[Granny Smith]

I was too cheap to buy a wetjet. Instead, I made a Cuban mop.



I made it out of a 2" dowel for the head and a 1" dowel for the handle (and some wood glue) Those things are like $20 to buy! Crazy!

[Sheila]

Glad ya all like it sure saves on all those needless cleaners.

[Valerie]

I hate spending money on all that toxic stuff! And I like having one cleaner to do everything.

Gayle, that's a cool mop!
I bought my wetjet back when they first came out. Back when they were $40! (My son still teases me about that!) I wore that puppy OUT! The motor has died so it doesn't spray any more, but as long as the velcro part on the head will still stick to a cloth, I'm not throwing it out.

[Granny Smith]

Nope, I wouldn't throw it out, either. No sense replacing something that's still serviceable.

[Cyngbaeld]

Gayle, how do you keep the towel on that thing?

[Valerie]

I think the handle just sits on the towel and pushes it around. Like if you were down there on your knees and that handle was your arm, only you get to stand up.

[Granny Smith]

Yep, that's how it works. The main advantage of the mop over hand-scrubbing is that the mop has more surface for applying pressure - plus you can stand up. I've been thinking of making one with a flat board, instead of the big dowel. The only advantage of the dowel, as far as I can tell, is that you can reverse the direction you're mopping, without lifting the mop or turning it around. You just flip it over and keep going. If you were handy, you could hinge the handle on the board and that would solve those problems.

[Granny Smith]

Forgot to mention, I made this cleaner on Dec. 1st. We've been using it everyday to clean both bathrooms, all the mirrors, and fingerprints and we still have enough left for a couple more weeks.

[Valerie]

I love being able to take the one bottle and clean everything in the bathroom with it, except for putting bleach in the bowls.

[Granny Smith]

I don't use bleach in our bowls because of the septic tank. Instead, we scrub them with either borax or baking soda (if we're out of borax).
