Todays post is part of Works for Me Wednesday.
How to clean virtually anything with 4 items and next to no effort.
First: a 1/3 combo of water and apple cider vinegar in a spray bottle and an old rag. I have gotten literally anything off or out with this mixture. I have even gotten grout off of tile with it. I've also used it on my flat top stove to get rid of the burn marks. Just spray your mixture onto the mess and wait a little bit then wipe it off. Sometimes you have to do this twice but it always works.
Water and ACV replaces: toilet, shower, sink and window cleaner.
Second: Rubbing alcohol & an old rag. Rubbing alcohol removes any ink (even permanent marker) and most paints from just about any surface. It's gotten pen, marker and permanent marker out of my couch cushions. It has removed all of the same marks from different walls and tiles in my house. Even the cupboards. It removed acrylic paint from my dining room chair. Just make sure the alcohol is at least 70%.
In my house rubbing alcohol replaces: Magic Erasers, bleach and other hard chemical cleaners.
These things also save: My couches, pillows, sheets, mattresses, sanity, money and my children from endless time outs.
It works for me.
I can vouch for the rubbing alcohol--used it to rub antiquing paint off my son's crib to paint again when I was pregnant with my daughter.
