Tips on cleaning with white vinegar* in your home.
Floors
To disinfect and clean certain floors, try using a solution of vinegar and water. Combine half a cup of vinegar with one gallon of water in your mop bucket. Mop your floor as usual. The result will be clean, shiny floors without streaks.
Automatic Coffee Makers
Keep your coffee tasting great and your machine working properly by removing mineral deposits. Run a solution of half vinegar and half water through your coffee maker. Rinse thoroughly with two brew cycles of water.
Greasy Surfaces
Clean greasy surfaces in your kitchen with a mixture of 50 percent vinegar and 50 percent water. Apply the solution using a towel or sponge. Since vinegar is all-natural, there is no need to wash off the solution.
Shower Enclosures
Remove soap residue from showers by wiping surfaces with a solution of 1 part salt with 4 parts vinegar. Be sure to use a soft towel or sponge.
