Isopropyl Alcohol - Other Uses
- cheap cleaning solution
1/3 part white vinegar
1/3 part rubbing alcohol
1/3 part water
3 drops dishwashing liquid
Mix in a (recycled) spray bottle and you have the equivalent of the floor cleaner. Just spray and mop. It also recommended for deodorizing a room and for a fast cleanup. Use this on any tile floors with great results. The alcohol is added to make it dry faster, but you could leave it out, if you want.
- all-purpose floor cleaner
1 cup (250ml) vinegar
1 cup (250ml) isopropyl alcohol
1 cup (250ml) water
6 drops dishwashing liquid
For fast floor cleanups, keep a bottle of this all-purpose cleaner handy: Fill a medium spray bottle with the vinegar, alcohol, water, and dish washing liquid. Shake gently to combine. To use, spray sparingly and mop until dry.
- Swimmer's ear prevention
2 tablespoons (30ml) vinegar
2 tablespoons (30ml) isopropyl alcohol
Swimmer's ear is the name for bacterial infection that occurs in the outer ear canal (versus deep inside like a normal ear infection). It commonly occurs after the day of swimming when the protective layer of wax that covers this sensitive skin can be worn away. To help get rid of bacteria-rich water in the ears after swimming, and, thus, lower the risk of an infection developing later, make a solution of equal parts vinegar and isopropyl alcohol and pack it in your beach bag. Soak a cotton ball in the mixture and squeeze a few drops into each ear after swimming.
