DIY Quick-Clean Liquid Wash
This wash is the solution for extending your dishwashing liquid soap while maximizing its uses. Great for cleaning countertops, cutting boards, bathrooms, keyboards, and other grimy spaces. We love to use this Quick-Clean wash when washing dishes on the run, or when there are not enough dirty dishes to justify filling the entire sink with water or to fill the dishwasher.

To Use:
