Yes. We use the highest quality, environmentally responsible, raw materials to build a superior cleaning product without the harsh side effects of many common cleaners.

This lessens a need for coarse abrasives and scratching while minimizing how much product is put down the drain.

No. Bleach is a widely misused and potentially dangerous product when misused. Bleach will damage most fabrics as well as ruin the absorbency of microfiber cloths. When properly mixed, bleach can be used to sanitize a pre-washed, non-porous surface but it is not an effective cleaner.

Once the pre-cleaned and sanitized surface is dry, bacteria can begin to populate that surface.

No. Gabe’s Pride Bathroom Cleaner is an important first step to pre-clean a surface before proper disinfection or sanitizing.

Most surfaces do not need to be disinfected or sanitized but when they do, the surface must be pre-cleaned. In most of life’s needs, a thorough cleaning will keep your home, RV, or anywhere sanitary and safe.

The key difference between disinfecting and sanitizing is that, after the surface is properly cleaned and the disinfectant/sanitizer sets wet for its rated time, disinfectant will leave a microscopic residual behind and sanitizers will evaporate film-free.

Understand one key fact… You cannot disinfect or sanitize a dirty/soiled surface and just doing a quick spray and wipe will not properly clean and disinfect or sanitize.

The surface must be cleaned first, then apply your disinfectant or sanitizer, let set its recommended dwell time to kill the particular microbe/virus/organism you are trying to kill and then wipe up any wet residual that may remain. Detergents/surfactants are added to disinfectants and sanitizers to help the solution penetrate the surface it is being applied to but not enough cleaning power to be an effective cleaner. Especially with disinfectants, if it is a good cleaner then the surfactant would remove any residual before it could be applied on the surface for proper disinfection.

Disinfectants are predominantly used on pre-cleaned, hard, non-porous, non-food surfaces. Because it is intended to leave a residual, you do not use disinfectants where food will contact. When used properly it will leave a residual that will hold and kill, one time, a specified microbe/virus/organism that contacts it. Once it is contacted, no further disinfecting can be done and the surface is now contaminated. To truly maintain a disinfected surface, the entire cleaning, dwell and wipe up excess process will need to be done after every contact.

Sanitizers are predominantly used on pre-cleaned, non-porous surfaces that food may contact. Unlike disinfectants, sanitizers are made to evaporate off of the surface it is applied to without leaving a residual. Understand that once the sanitizer has evaporated, it is no longer effective.
