Can you S&Ser's please explain to me how and with what you swish and swipe with. I can't seem to manage it without having germy cloths hanging about. What's the cleanest way to do it quickly?

I use Parazone wipes or disinfectant and an old muslin for the toilet.
Also use different old muslins for swish and to do the floor with spray disinfectant. I then wash them each time....
Does that help?

I use an old flannel or cloth, then I use Flash bathroom spray for the bathroom, sink, shower, bath. Then neat Domestos on the toilet, then the toliet floor. I then wash (on a boil wash) the flannel. Use again.

multi purpose spray and kitchen towel around the sink and toilet seat, then flush away. toilet brush around the toilet bowl. (the brush is kept in bleach water)

Glad I can help It's dead easy now, also another little hint, is I use car shampoo with wax (cheap stuff from asda) and a big car sponge in the shower whilst I'm once a week, never needs scrubbing now. (I shower every day but clean the shower once a week!)

Have moved the kitchen roll and anti-bac spray into bathroom cupboard, looking forward to my new regime tomorrow. How sad am i? Presume you don't have a curious toddler to have the luxury of toilet brush in bleach water.

I swapped a dirty pink shower room and seperate avocado toilet for a beautiful freestanding cast iron bath and tongue and groove bathroom (my very clever dh) I don't think i'll get to use the car wax on the bath. Bit slippy me thinks.
