I purchased my first set of cloths, an Enviro and Window Cloth with much reluctance, as I am very skeptical. I was renovating a home and needed to clean all the windows. I dropped my children off at school and headed over to the home in February, it was -5Co and sunny, not the optimal time to clean interior and exterior windows. I took with me a pack of paper towels, my window cleaner, vinegar and a bucket, because I was sure the cloths weren't going to work! I still bought them, so I thought I should try them. I started cleaning the windows and was blown away by how clean the windows were and how fast and easy the cloths were to use! No streaks and clear windows! I zipped throught the entire 2 story house and cleaned all the windows, including winter storm windows to a total of 54 surfaces. I was done and picked up my children for lunch. Needless to say, I was sold!!!

I found bubble gum stuck on my shorts. I tried to cut it off and it wouldn't budge. I used an Enviro Cloth and it just rolled off.

I took the screens off my kitchen windows and cleaned the windows inside and out with the Enviro Cloth and Window Cloth. When my husband came home he thought I had the windows wide open – doesn’t this prove how clean those windows really were!

I did a show in a hair salon and we used an Enviro Cloth and the Window Cloth to take hairspray off the mirrors. It worked great. Everyone was impressed!

My sister loves using the Window Cloth after a damp Enviro Cloth to polish her granite countertops. This leaves the countertops shiny without the dull residue that used to be left behind from traditional cleaners. I also find the Window Cloth works great on stainless steel appliances.

My husband has patients who are farmers and recently, a farm wife complained to him that her husband "stole" her Window Cloths for his combine windows! He says they work great and now nothing "sticks" to his windshield!

We have a neighbour who works in the gold drilling business (in Alaska and Nevada) and he LOVES using a wet Enviro and the Window Cloth for his truck windows and inside the truck as their vehicles get very dirty from all the dust and dirt.

How to use Microfiber Cloths
• Fold the cloth in half. Fold it again. You now have a total of 8 clean sides to work with.  For the Window and Car cloth, fold it again and you have 16 sides.
• Place your whole hand on the cloth and wipe with even strokes. The cloth should be flat against the cleaning surface.
• On less dirty surfaces, spray water on the surface and lightly polish with a microfiber cloth. For dirty surfaces, clean the surface with a wet Enviro Cloth first, then use the Window or Car cloth to dry and polish

Microfiber Washing Instructions
To save the environment and reduce the use of detergents, we suggest that cloths and mops which are slightly dirty, or embedded with grease, be washed with a little dish detergent under warm running water and used again before laundering. You DO NOT have to wash with soap after each use if not dirty, but you should always rinse under warm to hot running water.  Launder microfiber cloths in hot water with other lint-free laundry using Norwex laundry detergent (or other environmentally friendly detergent).  Do not use bleach or fabric softener as this will destroy the product’s ability to clean effectively.

To deep clean, remove stubborn stains or odours from smelly cloths, Norwex microfiber can be boiled for 10 minutes to allow fibers to swell and release the debris.  Use our Rubber Brush to remove dirt and debris from the mops between launderings.

My dear husband and I have very different views when it comes to using household chemicals. For the most part, these matters fall into my jurisdiction, therefore I get to make the call.

But last month we went away camping.

Preparing to leave, my DH announced that he was going to dump the old gasoline for the boat in "the back 40", since we and the pets would be away for a week. I was horrified, and assured him there must be some way to deal with this waste other then poisoning our backyard!

Long story short, the gasoline came on holidays with us, and home again.

Any suggestions???

My triumph came later in the week, when I beat DH to cleaning the boat. He had somehow managed to slip some "Marine Spray Nine" into our cart last shopping trip, dazzled by the claims that it "Kills Viruses". It also cost $16 for the bottle.
I reminded him that he could use an Enviro cloth to do the job, if he wanted to actually kill viruses without harming the other living creatures coming into contact with the boat (like, say, his family, for example). He stated he didn't want to ruin the cloth. I suspected that I could do the job, with lots of remaining life left in the cloth, but hey, we're going on holidays. Pick your battles, I reminded myself.

I had the inspiration to clean half the boat with my Enviro cloth, just to see if it did as effective a job as the spray. But I couldn't stop at half. The years of grimy dirt were literally wiping away with just water. And the glass was coming so clean with my Window cloth, I really got excited about getting the boat in the water. I cleaned the whole boat. And no, the cloths are not ruined. Stained maybe, cause dirt is dirty.

DH was so thankful, he didn't even regret not getting to use his chemicals.

At least I know our local toxic roundup will take the spray.
Sigh...
