This match made in heaven has been a household staple for a long time and I make sure to keep it handy. To make the solution is simple and easy on the wallet! Pour equal parts of vinegar and Dawn into a spray bottle. Gently shake, then spray liberally onto the surface to be cleaned.
You can also combine Dawn with vinegar for stronger cleaning power, especially when tackling hard water stains. Just combine them in a spray bottle, spray down your tub or shower and let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub it down.
This is my favourite all purpose cleaner - mix 2/3 of Dawn and 1/3 vinegar in a spray bottle It is awesome for glass shower doors, grease on clothes and sinks.
If you want to get your windows sparkling clean, you can once again harness the power of Dawn and vinegar. Combine 2 cups of warm water, ¼ cup distilled white vinegar, and ½ teaspoon of blue Dawn. Pour into a spray bottle and clean away. (Note: This works best with warm water, but standard temperature water works too.)
Use 1 gallon of hot water mixed with 1 drop of Dawn dish detergent and a squeegee. Water alone might clean dusty glass, but it won't remove oils and airborne fallout.
1 gallon warm water. 2 cups white vinegar. 1 tablespoon dish soap. Dip a rag or mop cloth in the bucket and let excess liquid drip off.
Use products made with acetic acids, such as white vinegar, or oxalic acid, like Bar Keeper's Friend. These products are accessible, safe, and effective and provide strong yet gentle scrubbing power to best clean your shower.
Pour 1 part dish soap followed by 2 parts vinegar into the bottle for general cleaning tasks, or adjust to a 1:1 ratio for addressing tougher stains. After adding both components, shake the bottle well to ensure the dish soap and vinegar are thoroughly mixed.
Combine one squirt of Dawn dishwashing liquid (I use original formula) with one part white vinegar and one part water. For a small spray bottle, start with one cup of vinegar, one cup of water, and one squirt of Dawn.
For a small spray bottle, start with one cup of vinegar, one cup of water, and one squirt of Dawn. If you have a large spray bottle (like 32 ounces), double the vinegar and water and use two squirts of Dawn. The mixture should look very pale blue. Give it a gentle shake and you're ready to go.
It's the fact that the Platinum product is concentrated, and delivers more of the key grease-fighting, colorless ingredients called “surfactants."
Fill a bucket with 1 gallon of warm water and 1/2 cup cleaning vinegar. Use a sponge or microfiber mop, wringing well to prevent over-wetting the floor. Rinse the mop head often. There's no need to rinse the floor; the solution will not leave residue or streaks.
In fact, LovelySkin CEO and board-certified dermatologist Dr. Joel Schlessinger recommends cleansing skin with your hands over a shower loofah or washcloth.

Glass with UV coatings or other specialty treatments. Painted, varnished, or coated surfaces, including automobile paint. Precious metals, copper, or sterling silver. Leather, upholstery, or fabrics that won't later be rinsed.
