If theres a buck to be made some company will come up with a product for every little thing. But Im sure no one really needs separate cleaning products for tile floors,bathtub,toilet,windows,walls,shower doors,car interior,stainless steel fridge,etc etc.

Now obviously we arent gonna clean fine wood furniture with ammonia or porous tile with vinegar I dont think,but we do want to pare down the mountain of cleaning products we have

What are your must-haves dues??

What do ya find works the best.. Natural stuff or stuff loaded with horrible chemicals??

Re: What cleaning products do you consider a necessity?

I have noticed a whole raft of new cleaning products specifically for Air Fryers.

I found a limited edition bath and sink cleaner from Flash, a liquid that dissolved soapscum. It does such a great job, that I was happy to find it 75% off, so bought loads that we still have plenty of.

Apart from that, and thick bleach, I tend to use a simple anti-bac surface cleaner and a Trade tiled-floor cleaner.

I see every time I see people advising using a mix of vinegar and bicarb to clean stuff. One or the other is OK, but not both together!

Re: What cleaning products do you consider a necessity?

Water is a good start in many cases plus mild detergents.
Don't use general window cleaner on the car windows it can damage seals etc.
Don't use detergents on cast iron and seasoned steel pans unless you are going to reseason them.

Vinegar. Nothing better for smear free windows, and you can have some chips at the same time.
