Mix white vinegar 1 cup, and 3 Tablespoons of blue dawn. Heat till warm, then put in spray bottle and fill with water. Use to clean shower tiles, shower doors, and toilet bowls. Very effective on toilet bowls to keep hard water stains off.after a good cleaning, use to maintain the bowl. No more scrubbing. Just spray and let sit for about an hour. To clean shower spray and let sit overnight the first time you use it..after that you can just spray and clean off when you shower.
To clean black granite sink. Clean with very hot water and dawn detergent. Rinse well. Apply a thin layer of mineral oil the kind you find in the grocery store next to the laxatives. It is approximately $1.49 and is food safe and natural. Use a paper towel or wash rag to apply. Sink will shine. Will need to reapply monthly to maintain.
