    Mix them together and wash. Make sure to mix well.

    Check out this site, and to get you started try this one.
    Shower tile cleaner, good for everything in the bathroom.
    1/2 tesp. liquid dish soap
    1 cup of white vinegar
    1/4th cup rinse agent Jet Dry.
    Mix and put in a spray bottle, so you have it ready all the time. Make sure you label the bottle.
    You can buy Jet Dry in the detergent aisle at the super market.
    They also sell books on vinegar and another one on baking soda.

    Well, for starters:

    Baking soda and vinegar make a great cleaning solution for your tub, sink, floor, etc. Add salt and no bacteria will be able to live. (Baking soda and salt is the best, natural way to clean your teeth, too {equal parts of each})

    Also, there are cleaners that use same natural ingredients. That’s another option.

    Honestly, for windows and mirrors, glass, etc., use a damp rag, and immediately dry -with no streaks- with a clean towel. I don’t understand the use of ammonia when this works so well.

    Dishes are washed well with baking soda and salt, but that gets a bit expensive. The aforementioned products with natural ingredients can be found at a Byerlys or Lunds. They’re pretty inexpensive, too.

    Kudos on the natural cleaning!
