Hydrogen Peroxide-The Greatest Cleaning Agent Ever

I, much like the rest of the world, suffer from the occasional family member randomly stopping by to socialize for a bit. The past weekend it happened to be my cousin along with his pontoon boat, but socializing was not the reason. He informed me that he had a little bit of a problem with his boat. It had apparently gotten a bit dirty and knowing I'm in the business of cleaning, he wanted a little bit of advice. So I took a look at the boat and to say a bit dirty would be an extreme understatement. It was covered in what appeared to be black mold. I knew after seeing a mess such as this that there was only one cleaning agent strong enough to handle it-Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) Yes my friends the same thing mommy would put on our cuts and scraps when we were younger. The dirty little secret about hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is that it happens to be one of the most powerful oxidizers known to man. An added benefit of it is that hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a naturally formed product caused by the action of sunlight on water. This natural product has many uses other than to disinfect our kids cuts and scraps. One of the best uses of it is for cleaning. Hydrogen peroxide kills bacteria, viruses, and to my cousins surprise even fungi. Substituting it with all those dangerous chemical cleaners not only keeps kids and pets safe when cleaning but as mentioned before it just so happens to work a whole lot better. One could even clean their windows by just adding about five drops of dish soap to hydrogen peroxide. Once you try it your be a believer. Not to mention hydrogen peroxide and dish soap happen to be much less expensive than your average window cleaner. In fact I informed my cousin to mix some dish soap with hydrogen peroxide, grab a wonder glove and scrub away at the boat. The next day he called to thank me because he has never seen his boat look so good since the day he bought it. Hydrogen Peroxide-you can't get a much more earth friendly product than that.
