Do apc's have disinfectants? Anyone clean the bathroom with it?

Has anyone ever waxed or sealed the shower? I wonder if it'd be easier to clean afterwards. I know Somebody out there has tried it
 
Some APC's do have disinfectant property's within them like Lysol 4 in 1 lemon breeze, I personally uses this Lysol, or when out of Lysol use regular all purpose clean to detail my bathroom
though, do note not to use APC on floors as some can make it slippery, lastly I have sealed my shower stall/glass before it,
thus leave's less water to wipe up after taking a shower

When I detail my bathroom I like that instead of cleaning it sounds more fun that way!
 
The majority of detailing products are only cleaners - no disinfecting. Which is why they are rarely the right product for cleaning something g like mould, mildew or algae.
 
A nice product for shower surrounds is Meguiar's M-67 (One Step Compound). It's 2 in1 compound/polish (no wax). I have used it safely on the floor with no slipping. Then a 'marine wax' on the verticals.

A lot of Detailing Products contain alcohol, which is a disinfectant

Yup. For example, liquid hand sanitisers need to have about 70% ethanol to pass british standards for bacterial kill - so you need a lot! I will probably say that I don't add specific preservatives to products that have much more than 10% IPA. That said, all I am worried about will be stopping growth, not actually killing an existing 'infection'. Certainly by the time you dilute any normal APC, there will only be fractions of a percent of alcohol and this won't help you killing anything.
 
Tilex is essentially watered down bleach. Next time you run out of Tilex, save the bottle and cut the 8.25% bleach 3:1 with water and you'll have a solution that is still stronger than Tilex.

Bleach can also be used to raise the chlorine level in a pool without adding stabilizer (cyanuric acid). If you tell the pool store people you're doing thus, they'll look at you cross ways, as they'd prefer you buy their way overpriced pucks and powders. I've been using bleach for over two years with no ill effects.


Just be sure to get the bleach that doesn't have scents or fabric softeners in it.
