You will be amazed at the results, as we were. No odor, fumes, streaks, preparation or cleanup. Water is free and readily available. The microfiber cloths can be purchased just about everywhere now—hardware stores, department stores, box stores, grocery stores. They vary in price but are quite reasonable and reusable. Some packs come with a variety of colours allowing you to assign a colour to specific jobs. For example; we use white for clear vinyl windows, blue for galley and green for dirtier jobs like fiberglass etc. Then, you don’t mistakenly pick up a cloth with sand in it that will scratch the vinyl.
