Mixing the formula with water, she created a super-effective cleaner that stretched even further, making it a highly cost-efficient solution.

"I dilute it with water, put it in a spray bottle. Some people don't dilute it and use it as is," she advised. "Just one squirt on the door and a quick wipe with a microfibre cloth did the trick!"

The post received an overwhelming response, amassing over 150 comments, with even professional cleaners joining the conversation with resounding endorsements for the product.

"I swear by it - it's my main product across the board," one cleaner said, with another chiming in, "I am a cleaner and use it all the time!"

Other group members joined the chorus of praise, sharing their experiences with the versatile cleaner on tiles and floors.

“I’ve been using that one and the vanilla scent for months. Highly recommend, especially to use in the bathroom,” one person wrote, with another adding, “I love it too, use it for just about everything.”

Not just limited to shower screens, the popular product has proven its worth on tiles, windows, and kitchen benches too. However, fellow users offered a word of caution; steer clear of wood or paint surfaces, as the methylated spirits may cause damage.

"I won't risk ruining...my polished wood floors over time of continuous use of a product known to strip varnish," said the original poster.

Aside from its streak-fighting superpowers, the product also boasts a germ-killing prowess, claiming to eliminate up to 99.9% of germs, making it a powerhouse of a cleaning buy.
