Good news... there's a cheaper and safer solution. Baking soda! Just sprinkle some in and let it sit for a while. When you go back to clean, everything will just wipe off. Easy peasy. This works really well, too. :) http://etsy.me/pQZ5N2 Clean Baked-On Gunk from Pans with Dryer Sheets |

I definitely would not consider Green Works a true "green" product line. http://www.greenworkscleaners.com/products/toilet-bowl-cleaner/ingredients/ Just the fact that the bubbles don't disappear should be a warning flag. I use my own product, Soapy, because it's effective, rinses quickly and it's multipurpose. You can use it for a lot more than just cleaning a toilet. http://www.etsy.com/listing/42885126/soapy-all-purpose-dilutable-cleaner Test Lab: Non-toxic & Natural Toilet Bowl Cleaners Grist 05.19.2009 |

I've been doing this for a long time and it works really well. The other thing you can add are bits of lemon. I slice a lemon up into chunks, drop them in the ice cube tray and then fill with vinegar and freeze. Double cleaning & deodorizing power! Clean Your Garbage Disposal With Vinegar Ice Cubes |

@ihateacrylic- This is my own product but there are many people out there who will testify to it... It works like a dream for bathtubs, showers, sinks, etc. Smells delish, too. I'll send you a sample if you want. Just contact me thru etsy. http://etsy.me/c50kiz Six Green Cleaners for the Kitchen Fall 2010 Kitchen Cure |

oh, yikes. combining fabric softener and diesel fuel just sounds like one big toxic mess. aren't you just covering one chemical smell with another? i would soak the clothes in a basin with 3 parts water to one part lemon juice, then wash with detergent and a cup of baking soda and add white vinegar to your rinse dispenser. good luck!
