DIY baking soda and dish soap cleaner
Step 1: Mixing the Ingredients
Begin by measuring out 1 cup of baking soda, ¼ cup of dish soap, and ¼ cup of water. Pour them into your mixing bowl.
Step 2: Stirring
Using a spoon or whisk, stir the ingredients together until they form a smooth paste. Make sure to mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
Step 3: Transferring to a Bottle
Once your mixture is smooth, carefully pour it into your empty bottle with a nozzle. A funnel may be helpful for this step to avoid spills.
Step 4: Application
Your DIY baking soda cream cleaner is now ready to use! Simply apply the cleaner onto the surface you wish to clean. You can use it to scrub sinks, stovetops, countertops, and even toilets.
Step 5: Scrubbing and Cleaning
Using a sponge, cloth, or scrub brush, scrub the surface with the cleaner to remove dirt, grime, and stains. Baking soda for cleaning acts as a gentle abrasive. The dish soap helps to cut through grease and grime.
Step 6: Rinse
After scrubbing, rinse the cleaned surface thoroughly with water to remove any residue from the cleaner. For tougher stains or heavily soiled areas, you may need to repeat the cleaning process. Simply reapply the cleaner and scrub as necessary until the surface is clean
Step 7: Storage
Store your DIY cleaner in a cool, dry place when not in use. Make sure to label the bottle clearly so you know what it is and keep it out of reach of children and pets.

I have used a baking soda gel for years! When I’m out I’ll mix this up!

I have used a similar solution for cleaning my stainless steel sinks and appliances, but will make my own stain remover for various uses around the house with blue DAWN dish detergent and water by adding other ingredients, such as hydrogen peroxide to whiten clothes or as a stain remover/pre-wash depending on its use. Add white vinegar or cleaning vinegar for carpet stains and as an overall all purpose cleaner for general uses. Great for spider webs and window washing. For monthly drain cleaning I make the baking soda vinegar solution.

I have a white bathtub and due to my health it has turned brown. Cause my husband works in construction and when he takes a shower he has dust that ends up in the tub! So could you tell me what is the easiest way to clean it? Thank you.
Are the solutions that use these newer versions of Dish Soap and Dishwasher Soap safe to use for those of us who have septic tanks?
