Almost everyone has isopropyl or rubbing alcohol in their medicine cabinet for first aid.

Since almost everyone already has it, and it is cheap, it is exactly the type of item I love finding additional uses for, and there are a lot of rubbing alcohol uses I've already found for cleaning our homes, and for stain removal.

That is because alcohol is a solvent, so it works well in cleaning up some messes that water itself can't even seem to make a dent in.

Of course, there are even more homemade cleaning recipes and tips for using this common household product than what I've already collected. If you make a homemade cleaning product which uses alcohol as one of the main ingredients, or otherwise have a great use for it, I would love it if you would share it with me below.
