It's gotten pretty tough to get them. Is there a way to make them at home?

I tried rubbing alcohol & baby wipes for my hands & the alcohol broke down the wipes so the lint covered my hands

I'm glad you asked. Go to the Walmart in Lucas and check the end caps.

We found this bottle with our cleaning supplies, forgot we had it, and it's worked just fine. I can't recall the last time we've seen cleaning wipes on the shelves, so this has been a godsend.

Think we added a tablespoon or 2 to this 32 oz bottle and the rest is water. Does the trick.

Yes just find some bulk sanitizer that contains ammonium chloride. You can use something like Huggies wipes and pour the solution in and let it soak. Home Depot has several sanitizers that contain the AC.

You need a special type of cloth from a hobby store. It’s called pernsinth cloth. You get a stack of those and soak them in a tub of 5 parts water 1 part bleach, 1 part alcohol. After soaking you wrap the stack up in a towel and shove it up your butt.

Pine sol for surfaces kills 99.9% of bacteria. Glove up while cleaning.

I always make some when I go camping. Just take some paper towels and put some antibacterial soap in them and get them wet. Then let them dry. You just rehydrate them when needed and boom, antibacterial wipe.

Hmmmmmm, not so sure how that would work. Most antibacterial soap uses alcohol content as the germ killer. If you let the alcohol dry, re-hydrating will not help.

Hate to give away my tricks, but if you get to some of the the larger stores when they open, you can often find them.

The material is the problem, not the mixture. Tough one.

Brake clean + oven degreaser. The burn means it is working.

I've just been using paper towels and Lysol disinfectant spray at home. A number of places that started making hand sanitizer are offering alcohol wipes now.

Bleach and a washcloth, retard. Mix it according to the instructions on the bottle. If you're unsure of what to do with the washcloth when you're done, you put it in the washing machine with some of that bleach. It's like a cycle you can use over and over or something.

ETA: If you want to get really high-tech, get a spray bottle to apply the bleach and water.

I use 70% alcohol and bounty wipes stored in a plastic container. The Bounty wipes holed up better than the store bought alcohol wipes.

Just order Flex Wipes online. They’re better than Clorox Wipes

That is because Bounty is the quicker picker upper.
