Disinfecting and Sanitizing Sprays...what's the best multi surface sprays

Hi...

I'm looking for a multi surface spray to kill the usual bacterial suspects as well as the Human Coronavirus 19.  I'm specifically looking for one that doesn't need to be rinsed off just so I can streamline the cleaning process. I recently put CleanSmart Nursery and High Chair Cleaner on my Amazon shopping list, but before I purchase it I'd like to see what my fellow host's favs are.

Thanks!

@Betsy60,

I use Pure Bright Ultrableach, and have purchased it from Lowe's and Costco.

@Debra300,

 

Does that product need to be rinsed off, and can it be used on many different surfaces?

@Betsy60,

No, you should not rinse disinfectant off of any surface, even with a clean towel and water, after it has been been treated with disinfectant.  Doing so may diminish its sanitized state. If you are going to spray a hard surface with disinfectant, allow it to stay per the products directions before wiping off the excess.  I think it's better for a surface air dry if you are have disinfectant solution in a bucket and applying with either a sponge or mop, because it may be difficult to wipe up any residual solution.

@Betsy60 Purell food grade sanitizing spray doesn't need to be rinsed off, but good  luck finding it anywhere.

I don't understand what you mean by rinsed off? I use Chlorox bleach spray or other all-purpose multi-surface disinfectant and I never rinse off the surface. I just rub it in.

@Betsy60 the best advice for specific products would be online from a reputable source.

As for sprays, you might find the method of spraying into a cloth (and then wiping) rather than spraying onto a surface as it saves a lot of product over time (a hotel trick).

Cloths can be easily washed and recycled, just don't use the same one for everything.

Stay safe; cheers Charles

We bought an electrolyzed water maker (ours is a Vauzen) last year because we wanted to find something more environment-friendly. We like it better than any anti-bacterial spray we used before and found it is extremely effective for getting rid of unwanted odors. 

 

 

Is it also anti viral?
