We have all used rubbing alcohol to clean out cuts before putting on a band-aid but did you know that rubbing alcohol is a great choice for disinfecting more stuff than just your bruises?

You can use it to clean your bathroom, kitchen and many other places.

Mirrors:

Get rid of water stains and keep your mirror and any other reflective surfaces streak free by wiping it down with rubbing alcohol on a clean cloth.

Granite:

Add a little bit to a clean cloth and use it to wipe down your granite counter tops to give it a nice shine.

Blinds:

Your blinds attract a ton of dust and grime coming in from the outside so instead of just giving it the usual dusting, give it a nice wipe down afterwards with some alcohol to help kill any bacteria.

Odours:

Fill a spray bottle with rubbing alcohol and spray a little bit throughout your room to help eliminate lingering odours.

Ink Stains:

If you have some ink stains on your clothes, give it a pre-wash with some alcohol, it will ensure that when you wash the piece of clothing the stains will come right off.
