Default Can I really dilute my stampin mist?

I have half a bottle left. I'm surprised how fast I am going through it. I heard someone say that you could dilute it with water and it would work just fine. Is that true?

Do you know the ratio? Could I do half and half? Since my bottle is half empty?

Thanks

Erin

Hi Erin - Many of us wet down our scrub pad with water and then just give it a mist or two with the cleaner (I actually top it off with another mist of water as well). Works great and you don't have to worry about "over diluting" your main bottle. As a demo it is good to show people what they are really getting from SU as well as how to use their products well.

Another thing I do is just mist my pad with just water to re-activate the cleaner that might still be on the pad. Depending on usage, I don't always wash out my pad between sessions, so there's usually cleaner there, it's just that the water content in it has evaporated. A bit of water is all it takes!

I do it half and half also...remisting the pad with water helps it last longer too.

I also do 50/50 just to make mine last a little longer. You shouldn't have any problems.

I just keep diluting mine until it is mostly water!:lol: The cleaner is really strong when you first get it, so there is usually still cleaner on the pad after it dries. As long as my stampin' scrub pad doesn't get too inky, it works fine.

I make my own cleaner. But since I got one with my kit I wet it and then spray it.
