cleaning granite countertops
I have been doing a lot of research trying to find a good earth-friendly
recipe for granite cleaner. Most of what I found said to use rubbing
alcohol and dish soap, and to absolutely not use white vinegar (which I
had always heard anyway). As I was getting ready to make one that I had
found (actually had the bottle ready to go, just looking up the amounts)
there was a comment from someone saying he or she worked at a granite
place and you absolutely should not use rubbing alcohol and should use
vinegar. Now I am completely confused! Any advice or suggestions? I may
call the place we got the granite from, but I just have a feeling they
will direct us to a specific granite cleaner, and I really don't want
the chemicals.
