Quick answer
Dilute abode Multipurpose Surface Cleaner Concentrate with water in the abode Surface Spray Dispenser for routine cleaning, or use it full strength for tough messes.
Why dilution matters
Using the right dilution ratio ensures your cleaner is effective without wasting product. For everyday spills and light grime, a diluted solution saves money and reduces chemical exposure. For greasy or dried-on messes, full-strength concentrate cuts through faster.
What you will need
Grab the abode Multipurpose Surface Cleaner Concentrate, an abode Surface Spray Dispenser (or any clean spray bottle), and tap water. The concentrate is thick, so shake the bottle well before measuring.
Steps to mix and use abode Multipurpose Surface Cleaner Concentrate
- Shake the concentrate bottle: Shake the abode Multipurpose Surface Cleaner Concentrate well before each use. The ingredients can settle, and shaking ensures an even mix. Skipping the shake can result in a weaker first spray.
- Fill the spray dispenser with water: Fill your abode Surface Spray Dispenser about three-quarters full with cool tap water. Leave room for the concentrate. Hot water can cause foaming; stick with cool or room-temperature water.
- Add the concentrate: For routine cleaning, add 1 part concentrate to 10 parts water (about 2 tablespoons per 20 oz of water). For tough grease or dried-on grime, use a 1:5 ratio or apply the concentrate undiluted directly to the mess. Start with the 1:10 ratio and increase only if needed—stronger isn't always better for delicate surfaces.
- Attach the spray head and shake gently: Screw on the spray head securely, then tilt the bottle back and forth a few times to mix. Do not shake vigorously or you will create excess foam. If you see foam, let the bottle sit for a minute before spraying.
- Spray and wipe: Spray the solution onto the surface from about 6–8 inches away. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth or sponge. For full-strength applications, let the concentrate sit for 30–60 seconds before wiping. Avoid spraying on unfinished wood, waxed surfaces, or electronics unless you have tested a small area first.
