Introduction

There’s something deeply satisfying about achieving a streak-free finish, whether it’s on your windows, mirrors, or surfaces. But the key to that spotless shine isn’t always about the elbow grease—it’s about using the right formula. This simple recipe will help you achieve that professional-level gleam, leaving you feeling accomplished and your home sparkling.

Ingredients
White Vinegar: 1 cup (for its natural cleaning and streak-removing properties)
Distilled Water: 1 cup (to prevent mineral buildup)
Rubbing Alcohol (70% isopropyl): 1 tablespoon (for faster drying and enhanced shine)
Dish Soap: 2 drops (to cut through grease and dirt)
Essential Oil (optional): 5 drops (for a pleasant fragrance; lavender or lemon works well)
Directions
In a clean spray bottle, combine the white vinegar, distilled water, rubbing alcohol, and dish soap.
If using essential oil, add it to the mixture and shake gently to combine.
Spray the solution directly onto the surface or onto a microfiber cloth.
Wipe in circular motions, ensuring no residue remains.
For best results, finish with a dry microfiber cloth to buff and polish the surface.
Serving and Storage Tips
Storage: Keep your streak-free cleaner in a cool, dark place to preserve its potency.
Shelf Life: Use within 1 month for maximum effectiveness. Shake well before each use.
Variations
Extra Shine: Add 1 teaspoon of cornstarch to the mixture for added polishing power. Shake well before use.
All-Natural Option: Replace rubbing alcohol with vodka for a milder, all-natural cleaner.
Antibacterial Boost: Use tea tree essential oil for its natural antibacterial properties.
