I get a big bucket of water.......then I add a cap full of Pine-sol, a cap full of Bleac, a splash of Comet and swirl it around in the big bucket of water. It cleans....SO GOOD! The smells isnt bad at all...I think it's because I add lots and lots of water. The water is just right, not too soapy...not too bare. The only cleaner I don't mix is Amonia..because it's strong itself! Does anyone else do this? I confessed....lol So come on and confess!

yes, i do it too and i often get scolded by friends or family, whenever they see me doing it. I just can't use pine sol alone. It just doesn't seem like it's powerful enough. I always feel the need to use bleach. I go through bottles of bleach quickly.. It's like no surface is really clean, unless you clean it with the old bleach and pine sol.
I have to soak my cleaning utensils (mop & dish rag) in some bleach and water with a capful of soap before hand and then I let them dry a bit, so I can start the process. i also use some ajax when i come a cross something that requires tough scrubbing followed by a combination of a splash of pine sol and a dab of bleach. I'll even throw in some windex if it's a tough stain.
Oh and I learned my lesson a long time ago about ammonia and bleach.... Oh boy, that and oven cleaners. Christ, I nearly passed out twice.

Years ago I worked in a restaurant and cleaned the floors after the kitchen closed (guests still in the dining room). I thought, if bleach cleans and ammonia cleans they should really clean if mixed. Had to have the fire department come out with big fans and evacuate the dining room. Was told I was lucky to be alive. I don't mix cleaners anymore.

Watch what you mix some chemicals are highly combustable and is very harmfull to you and animals, they can strip the natural liners of your sinuses, in the end the sense of smell is gone and it can also cause bleeding to accurr.it can burn the lungs causes irriversable changes to occur, just be careful the companies dont put those labels on,,just to look at and dismiss, theyre there for a reason.

I mix EVERYTHING with liquid lysol. It smells nice and cleans well i like how it foams up. I dont mix anything with bleach though ever, because with certain(quite a few)cleaners,it can give off real raunchy fumes that can harm you.

I like to use bleach by itself no water added, then I rinse it with water. I knew a lady who would mix different cleaners, she almost poisoned herself with the fumes.

Though its bad for the environment... I mix a little bleach with cleaners (fantastic, or whatever) for cleaning tubs and sinks. It works great !

You mix too many of those cleaners and you will manufacture a gas that can ruin your lungs. Be very careful.

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU MIX.
Playing chemistry without some basic knowledge can kill you.
You may end up with a MacGyver bomb.
NO JOKE HERE.
Better do label reading and research before you poison yourself and anyone else in the household.
