How To Clean Windows With Dawn And Vinegar
One of the things I spend the most money on at the store outside of food and diapers is cleaning products, like glass cleaner. So I am looking for ways to save money on them and let's face it, how many have you bought that you just don't like? Well, that's one of a few reasons I starting looking for a DIY glass cleaner recipe and now I'm sharing the one I love with you.
DIY Glass Cleaner Recipe – Better Than Windex
Raise your hand if you have a cabinet under your sink, a shelf in your pantry, or a closet, or even a spot in the garage that is full of cleaning products.
*Raises Hand*
Now think about how many of the products are just sitting there because you bought them, tried them out and they didn't work or you didn't like them for one reason or another? At least half I'm guessing?
This problem is a big part of why I started to look into making my own. I started with my DIY Laundry Soap and now I'm tackling window cleaner because let's face it with 5 kids ages 10 and under no window or mirror stays clean for long!

So as you can see this window cleaner can be made for pennies! I get my dawn dish soap on sale for 49¢ a bottle and the vinegar I can pick up 32 oz for under $1 so the money saved with this homemade window cleaner is HUGE!
It works great in windows and mirrors and I have had a few people say they will add in some essential oil just a drop for scent. I haven't done it because, well if it ain't broke don't fix it right?

What is in Windex glass cleaner?
According to SC Johnson's 2009 formula the ingredients are water, 2-hexoxyethanol, isopropanolamine, sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, lauramine oxide, ammonium hydroxide, fragrance, and Liquitint sky blue dye.
I think my eyes went cross-eyed…what is that stuff and why do I need sky blue dye to clean my windows??
Hint. I don't and neither do you.
Glass cleaner vs window cleaner
Marketing companies want you to think there is a difference between a glass cleaner and a window cleaner.
Guess what? There is no difference!
Marketing companies want you to think that you need a special window cleaner for your windows and another for glass indoors like mirrors.
When really they are selling you the same product with a different label.
