Many people put some all-purpose cleaner on a sponge, clean and rinse. Instead, get a spray bottle and premix cleaner with the right amount of water. When cleaning, just spray and clean. You can do a long time with a spray bottle. It's a small tip, but it will save a lot of cleaner.

Sure, i was talking about cleaning surfaces. You dilute it according to what it says on the bottle, i never said to dilute it more than what is adviced. And i'm not saying to stop scrubbing, i combine it with scrubbing; i spray it on a surface, scrub and wipe the surface.

I heard a lot of people just put cleaner on a sponge. Not only you then use too much cleaner (and need to rinse it to get it off again), but it costs a lot more in the long run.

Thank you for clarifying, I appreciate it.
