Homemade Dawn Powerwash For About Fifty Cents A Bottle
Jump to the part you need
Lynn mixes up a homemade version of Dawn Powerwash — the pump spray she uses on greasy dishes, glass stovetops, countertops, and the vent hood. Three things go in it, and she demonstrates it on real messes at the end, including letting it sit on the inside of her oven door.
What Lynn shows you
- The mix she describes is one cup of water, four tablespoons of Dawn (she notes that's a quarter cup), and two tablespoons of alcohol, in a pump-style spray bottle — an empty Powerwash bottle refilled works fine.
- The alcohol is not optional: without it, she says, "your little sprayer right here will get stopped up."
- Mix and pour slowly. If you stir or shake hard enough to make bubbles, you'll have trouble getting it into the bottle.
- Her cost comparison: about 50 cents a bottle versus roughly $6 to $7 at the store.
- She sprays it on eyeglasses, lets it sit on stuck-on dishes about 5 minutes, and lets it soak on the oven door about 10 minutes — "the longer you let it soak the cleaner it will come." Amounts come from auto-generated captions; watch her measure before mixing your own.
