10 Unexpected Things You Should Be Cleaning With Fabuloso

If you have a bottle of Fabuloso in your cabinet, you might be able to clean your entire home with just this one product. The sanitizing concentrate can be diluted and used as a detail cleaner throughout your home, from the kitchen to the bathroom. You can pick up several options from the cleaning brand, like their 2x Concentrated, which is not only multi-purpose but has twice the strength of regular Fabuloso, so it can last twice as long. They also carry Fabuloso Antibacterial, which uses an antimicrobial agent to kill viruses and bacteria, and Fabuloso Professional, which is designed for residential and commercial usage. These products' ingredients include surfactants, which help to clean surfaces by lifting dirt and grease, and fragrance for a long-lasting fresh smell.

It's worth mentioning that if you have seen rumours circulating online about using Fabuloso around the home, be warned that not every "hack" is safe. While this product can be used alone on most hard surfaces, it should never be mixed with other cleaners, especially bleach. These combinations can produce toxic fumes and potential chemical reactions. You also want to refrain from using Fabuloso to clean unsealed hardwood floors, to wash dishes, or to use as laundry detergent. Some online creators have boasted about boiling Fabuloso on the stove as an air freshener or pouring it into their toilet's tank; these are also not recommended. Instead, here are ten ways you can safely use Fabuloso around your home.

If it's been a while since you last deep cleaned your trash can, grab a bottle of Fabuloso to get started. First, remove any contents and dump out any crumbs or remaining trash sitting in the bottom of the can. Always dilute Fabuloso according to the instructions on its bottle. Depending on the variation, you'll add ⅛ to ¼ cup of Fabuloso to 1 gallon of water. Using a sponge or rag, wipe down the trash can and let it air dry. The Fabuloso cleaner should leave your trash can with a fresh smell and no residue.

While it's not recommended to use Fabuloso as a toilet tank cleaner, you can use it on the toilet surfaces. Using the same ⅛ to ¼ cup ratio, dilute Fabuloso with water and use it to sanitize your toilet and remove any tough stains. Make sure to get the handle and even around the floor. To clean the bowl, you can pour in a small amount of Fabuloso and scrub with your toilet brush.

Fabuloso is ideal for cleaning hard surfaces like tile. Whether you need to scrub your kitchen or bathroom floors, you can make a diluted Fabuloso mixture to remove any dirt or grime, using a mop or rag for spot cleaning. Thanks to the ingredient lactic acid, Fabuloso Antibacterial can sanitize these surfaces as well. The product doesn't require any rinsing, so you can just wait for it to air dry.

While it's not recommended to use Fabuloso as a substitute for laundry detergent in your washing machine, it's possible to use the product as a way to spot clean tough stains on your clothes and linens. First, dilute the concentrate with water, ideally using the ⅛ to ¼ cup by 1 gallon rule, and add to a large container. You can soak your stained items for at least 30 minutes and then wash as normal.

Doorknobs and door handles can carry multiple bacterial colonies, sometimes containing at least a million bacteria. It's recommended to clean these areas at least once a week, if not daily, especially during flu season. A diluted Fabuloso Antibacterial mixture poured into a spray bottle is the perfect tactic for sanitizing your doorknobs, ridding these high-traffic areas of germs.

If your microwave is coated in grease and grime and you're unsure where to begin with the cleaning process, you might want to grab a bottle of Fabuloso. Mix ⅛ to ¼ cup of cleaner with 1 gallon of water and add it to a spray bottle or a sponge for easy cleaning. The product should remove any food stains and grease covering the appliance, including the plate, handle, and door.

You can also use a diluted Fabuloso solution to keep the shelves, doors, and interior of your refrigerator sparkling clean. These high-traffic areas tend to have a lot of buildup, and this cleaning mixture can wipe away the grime in just a few minutes. First, remove all of the fridge's contents as well as the shelves. You can wipe down the shelves individually and clean out the inside of the fridge, letting the cleaner dry before putting everything back in.

They may not be on your weekly chore to-do list, but the walls of your home can also get covered in stains and dirt, especially high-traffic areas like the kitchen and bathroom. They can even affect your home's overall air quality due to mold or allergen buildup. Using a diluted Fabuloso mixture, you can either spray or wipe the solution onto your walls to remove scuffs, dirt, marks, and more.

Fabuloso can even be used as an easy glass cleaner, as it doesn't leave any visible residue, and there's no need to rinse. Mix your chosen bottle of Fabuloso with water and pour the solution into an empty spray bottle. Apply the solution onto your mirrors, windows, and other glass surfaces and wipe clean with a cloth or paper towel. Instead of buying a separate glass cleaner, you can just use your bottle of Fabuloso.

This multi-purpose product can even be used to spot clean your car. Grab your Fabuloso and water mixture and use it to remove dust and dirt from any hard surfaces in your car. Plus, you can choose your scent of choice, like lemon or lavender, to double as a quick air freshener. Note that if your car has a leather interior, you may want to avoid cleaning the material with Fabuloso, as it is not intended for softer surfaces.
