by Michael Smith (Veshengro) Instead of buying and using chemical cleaning products use vinegar instead. Vinegar is great for cleaning floors, windows, mirrors, and laundry. That way the surfaces are cleaned and disinfected at the same time. After wiping a blade clean this way apply some lubricant as a blade protector; some salvaged olive oil or other cooking oil will do nicely. What a great price for a ever so useful product.

Wow Green products are different from other cleaning products out there. That’s because these cleaning products don’t immediately “kill” what you spray, but instead “break down” your dirt, stains and spills into harmless waste that you can then easily wipe away. A nd that also means no lingering chemical residue, like the residue that can be left behind and build up when you clean with traditional, chemical-based cleaners.
