Sure, so the first thing is the universal cleaning spray. Basically, the Force of Nature (FON) spray generates electrolyzed water:
You use the little machine by filling it up with water, squirting a capsule in, and then pressing the button to generate the electrolyzed water (takes 10 minutes or so). This creates two things:
So it's the same stuff in commercial cleaners that you buy at the store, minus the extra preservatives, chemicals, and smells. I'm sensitive to spray chemicals; this basically smells like a pool locker room (smells faintly of pool chlorine). Not great, but not bad haha. As far as effectiveness goes, in testing, it's just as effective as multiple bottled cleaners: (pulling from their website)
Independent test results are available here:
The reason you don't see electrolyzed water for sale is that it dissipates quickly. Each batch only lasts 2 weeks, so they give you a spray bottle that you can use a dry-erase marker on for the date & the machine is small and only generates a single batch at a time. I'd recommend getting the 50-capsule pack with the machine & spray bottle:
There's always 40% off sales available FYI:
You can also make your own base (the juice in the capsules is just salt, water & vinegar, in the proper amounts) at home, but for the cost at 40% off, I just buy a big pack of capsules once a year & call it a day lol. There's a great Facebook group with all kinds of fun ideas here:
I use FON spray for most of my cleaning, as well as for other stuff. I use it for cleaning wounds (I like it better than Neosporin & Bactine, especially if I'm doing something like street hockey & scrape up my knee, I can just spray it down haha). It's also a great produce disinfectant: (spray, let sit 30 seconds, then rinse off)
I also use it on my toilets:
As well as on my CPAP machine:
So my 2 go-to cleaners are:
Another tool I use are the Mr. Clean Magic Erasers. They are good for getting stains & gunk off stuff. Like, my toaster oven door gets messy from airfrying & I can use the FON spray with the Magic Eraser to clean it off super easy:
You can also make DIY Magic Erasers if you want to save some money...they're just melamine sponges. They sell 100-packs on Amazon & eBay for under $20 shipped haha. If you want to go the extra mile, you can add some cleaning agents to make them even more effective:
Beyond that, you can either use reusable towels or paper towels to clean with. I like paper towels because there's nothing to clean (no laundry cycle required) & they're disposable. I have a racheting vertical paper towel holder, which has resistance inside so that you can quickly tear off a piece one-handed:
So if I'm doing mirrors or windows, I use my blender spray. If I'm doing anything else, I use my FON spray. If I'm cleaning up gunk or stains (I have really crappy laminate countertops that stain just by looking at them lol), I use the Magic Eraser & the FON spray. Pretty easy!
