In my Home Clean Home cleaning classes we start out acknowledging the first three ingredients in natural cleaning (all free, by the way!). Sun. Air. Water.
I recently came across this statement: 'Improved technologies will continue to improve and impact the cleaning industry.' One tough cleaning job is that of cleaning national monuments. Did you know they clean the Statue of Liberty with baking soda?
We talk a lot about baking soda in class. It's the most basic of 'scrubbing powder' ingredients. It cleans and deodorizes. But torch lady herself? Wow. Apparently there is a high power pressurized applicator that is used to concentrate the baking soda blast on the monuments surface. The process is also used to safely clean boat hulls and is an eco-friendly way to remove even graffitti from city buildings!
And a German company patented the application process to use high-pressure washers to apply only hot water to clean and it safely and successfully cleaned Mount Rushmore of lichen, algae, moss and other organic stains.
I guess if they can clean the Statue of Liberty, boat hulls and graffitti with hot water and baking soda, then we shouldn't need more than that to clean our humble homes!
