If you have a house, you need to clean it. Cleaning is an unavoidable chore and hardly, anyone likes doing it. From vacuuming and dusting to washing and mopping, cleaning is boring as well as time-consuming (unless you're a professional cleaner). The most difficult one is cleaning the glass all across your home. It is because no matter how hard you try, the glass is covered with fingerprints and dirt within a few hours again. Another major problem is the harsh chemical cleaners that are used to clean the glasses. You may avoid cleaning the glasses with such toxic chemicals by turning to some of the great DIY glass cleaners. Here are 4 easy and eco-friendly DIY glass cleaner recipes to help you clean the glass without harming your health and surroundings.
Natural and Basic DIY Glass Cleaner

A cup of rubbing alcohol mixed with one tablespoon white vinegar and a cup of water makes a great substitute for the toxic chemical cleaners available on the market. Such cleaners do not contain toxic fumes and are affordably priced. The DIY glass cleaners instantly evaporate and thus do not leave ugly spots behind. This mixture can be poured in a spray bottle and can achieve comparable results to commercially available flass cleaners. The alcohol and vinegar solution can also be used on hard, chrome, and ceramic surfaces.
Corn-starch DIY Glass Cleaner

Take 1/4th cup white vinegar and rubbing alcohol each, 1 tablespoon corn-starch, and 2 cups of water and mix all the ingredients by shaking it in a spray bottle. The corn-starch must dissolve completely so shake properly. The surface of the glass and the windows are not smooth perfectly. There are tiny pits all through the surface of the glass that holds the water, producing spots and streaks. The corn-starch DIY cleaner breaks down the water bonds and results in a spot-free, shiny, and streak-free finish.
The corn-starch can leave behind residues. So, always remember to wipe the glass thoroughly. Otherwise, the solution will not be effective.
