Is it safe to water down spray cleaners to make them last longer?

Question

You know the kind, spray antibacterial cleaners for the kitchen and bathroom

Answer 1

Absolutely. You can also water down the antibacterial hand soap. The antibacterial active ingredient is really just redundant. It is the wiping, or rubbing the hands with soap that is wearing away the fat cells aroung the bacteria walls that is killing the germ. I know because I make the stuff.

Answer 2

Safe? Perfect put the purpose of an antibacterial spray or cleaner it to disinfect..... When you add water to chemicals, The chemical imbalance is unbalance and will case the chemicals to separate!!

Answer 5

It is OK but if it is diluted the effect might not work as well. Why not try a shop brand one they are cheaper.

Answer 6

Yep

Answer 7

water is always okay to mix with cleaners, just dont mix cleaners with other cleaners, it can be toxic.

Answer 8

cleaners such as pinesol, bleach, ammonia etc. are concentrated, so you can add as much or as little water necessary for what you are cleaning. cleaners such as windex, tilex etc. are not concentrated and won't work as well if you add water

Answer 9

Yes just wont work as good, I clean for a living.

Answer 10

I suppose its safe but it will dilute it and it may not work as well.
