How it works

10ml (1 capful), a litre of water, done.

HomeKind ships the cleaning part only. You add the water at home, in the spray bottle we send free, or one you already own. Fill the bottle with water to the shoulder, add the capful, cap it, tip it gently to mix and label it. That’s 10ml (1 capful) per litre of water. Then spray, wait, wipe.

The three steps

Filling the Starter Pack spray bottle with water

1Fill with water

Fill the bottle with water to the shoulder. The Starter Pack bottle holds 500ml.

Pouring concentrate from the HomeKind cap into the water in the Starter Pack spray bottle

2Add the capful

5ml (half a capful) in the 500ml Starter Pack bottle, or 10ml (1 capful) per litre of water. Cap it, tip it gently to mix and label it.

3Spray, wait, wipe

Mist, give it a moment, wipe with the waffle cloth. About 40c a spray bottle, or 20c for the 500ml Starter Pack bottle.

The dilution chart

How much to use.

Start with the everyday mix. Too much concentrate is the usual cause of residue and streaks. If something needs more, let it sit for a minute before you wipe, then step up to the heavy mix.

Why it works

Three plant enzymes. Three kinds of mess.

HomeKind is enzyme activated. Protease breaks down protein, which covers most food marks. Amylase breaks down starch, which covers sauces and spills. Lipase breaks down fats, which is your kitchen grease. Alongside them, plant and coconut derived cleansers lift the loosened soil, and D limonene from orange peel cuts through oily films.

That’s why one bottle can do the jobs of four sprays, and why a short wait matters. Spray, wait, wipe. On heavy jobs, leave it a couple of minutes.

Streak free glass

Mist light, wipe one way, buff dry.

Streaks come from two things: too much product and a wet finish. Mist lightly, wipe in one direction, then turn the waffle cloth to a dry side and buff. A waffle weave glass cloth, like the one in the Starter Pack, beats paper towel every time. There’s a full guide in the Journal.

Same on stainless: everyday mix, wipe with the grain, buff dry.

Where to use it

  • Kitchens and benchtops
  • Bathrooms and showers
  • Glass and mirrors
  • Tiles and splashbacks
  • Stainless steel and sealed stone
  • Sealed floors
  • Appliances, inside and out

Skip these

Avoid unsealed stone, unsealed or waxed timber, and anything the manufacturer says needs its own cleaner.

Safety

Keep the concentrate out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes, and rinse with water if contact occurs.
