Ammonia-Based Glass Cleaner

⚠️ USE WITH CAUTION

Streak-free cleaning of glass and mirrors

Materials

  • Ammonia
  • Water
  • Solvents
  • Fragrance

Common claims

  • No streaks
  • Fast-drying shine

Concerns / watch-outs

  • Strong fumes can irritate lungs and eyes
  • Never mix with bleach-containing products

Cleaner alternatives

Soft Scrub Gel Cleanser with Bleach

⚠️ USE WITH CAUTION

Gel-form scrubbing cleaner for sinks and tub stains

Materials

  • Sodium hypochlorite (bleach)
  • Calcium carbonate abrasive
  • Fragrance

Common claims

  • Bleach-powered cleaning
  • Gel clings to surface
  • No drips

Concerns / watch-outs

  • Bleach gel that clings to surfaces prolongs skin and fume exposure compared to rinse-off sprays
  • Should never be mixed with any other cleaner

Notes

The bleach gel format increases contact time with fumes and skin. Reserve for true stain emergencies; Bon Ami or baking soda paste handle regular scrubbing safely.
