White Vinegar for Cleaning

[nuoyg]

When people mention ''white vinegar'' as a cleaning product, do they mean the kind of clear vinegar you can just purchase at your local supermarket, or is there another type?

Thank you!

Yes, the clear kind. Ordinary, bog-standard, cheapo malt vinegar.

'Non brewed condiment', which is basically acetic acid diluted with water (which is what we call vinegar) is the stuff. Malt vinegar used for cleaning can leave a malty aroma behind, but works just as well.

I have just sprayed in (in an old spray) on my sinks, loos, bath etc. It smells like I have just had fish and chips but comes up lovely ... Leave it on for a few minuts then Cream Cleaner and rinse and dry . Then open the windows !
