Commercial detergents are sometimes harmful to the environment and in addition irritate sensitive skin. Brand name glass cleaners tend to contain harmful chemicals such as ammonia, which can even clog up your sinuses. Here are some simple and inexpensive ways to save money, care for the environment and your skin by creating your own window cleaners.

Steps

Method 1 of 6: Vinegar and Dishwashing Liquid

1. 1 Mix one glass of vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon of dish soap with 3.8 liters of warm water.
2. 2 Pour liquid into a spray bottle and use like any window cleaner.

Method 2 of 6: Citrus Peels

1. 1 Soak the peel of your citrus fruit of your choice in vinegar a few weeks before making the purifier.
2. 2 Strain the citrus mixture and pour it into the bottle.
3. 3 Mix one cup of citrus-soaked vinegar with one cup of spray bottle water.

Method 3 of 6: Soda Water

1. 1 Pour soda into a spray bottle and use as a regular glass cleaner.

Method 4 of 6: Cornstarch

1. 1 Combine one cup of vinegar and 1/8 cup of cornstarch with 3.8 liters of water.
2. 2 Mix well.

Method 5 of 6: rubbing alcohol

1. 1 Mix 1/3 cup distilled white vinegar with 1/4 cup rubbing alcohol.

Method 6 of 6: Rubbing alcohol and dishwashing detergent

1. 1 Add 1/2 cup rubbing alcohol and two jets of phosphorus-free dishwashing detergent to 3.8 L of warm water.

Tips

• Distilled white vinegar is best because flavored vinegars, such as apple cider vinegars, leave streaks on the glass.
• Try wiping down the cleaner with newspaper instead of paper towels. Newspaper absorbs dirt better than regular paper napkins / towels.

Warning

• Avoid using mixtures containing vinegar on marble, as this liquid will corrode the surface and cause damage.
