Step-by-Step Cleaning Tutorial:

Step 1: Gather Cleaning Supplies

  • Gather two main cleaning items: alcohol and all-purpose cleaner (APC).
  • Prepare the APC by filling a spray bottle with 70% strength isopropyl alcohol and adding half a teaspoon of dish soap.
  • Optionally, gather specialty cleaners like toilet cleaner and a scouring agent for tougher cleaning tasks.

Step 2: Clean Counters and Surfaces

  • Spray the APC on the surface and wipe it down with a damp rag to remove grease and grime.
  • Sanitize the surface by misting it with alcohol spray and letting it sit for 30 seconds before wiping it dry.

Step 3: Clean Glass Surfaces

  • Use the alcohol mixture and microfiber cloths to clean glass surfaces efficiently.
  • For mirrors, mist with alcohol spray, wipe with a microfiber cloth, and dry with an ultra-fine microfiber cloth for a streak-free shine.

Step 4: Clean Sinks and Bathtubs

  • Use an emulsifier or a powerful cleaner like Mr. Clean to clean sinks and bathtubs.
  • Scrub the surfaces with a sponge or scouring pad, rinse, and dry thoroughly.

Step 5: Dusting and Vacuuming

  • Use a Swiffer Duster to remove dust from different surfaces in the room.
  • Vacuum the floors, adjusting the settings based on the type of carpet or flooring you have. Remember to clear hair and debris from the vacuum bristles and filters.

Step 6: Toilet Cleaning

  • Apply toilet cleaner under the rim and let it sit for a while before scrubbing and wiping it down.
  • Use a toilet scrubber to clean the inside of the toilet bowl thoroughly.

Step 7: Handling Grease

  • Avoid pouring grease down the sink to prevent plumbing issues. Scrape excess grease into the trash and wipe off any residue with paper towels.

Step 8: Final Touches

  • Address any specific stains or cleaning needs in your home by using appropriate cleaning methods and products.
  • Remember that cleaning methods may vary depending on personal preferences and the unique needs of each household.

By following these steps and tips, you can efficiently and effectively clean your home, ensuring a fresh and organized living space.
