They don't have anything on them. You can purchase their cleaner to go in them but I think I'll just mix up some vinegar and water. I'll tell you how they work.Michelle in Montananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20607637.post-63728849532912445092009-02-27T10:32:00.000-08:002009-02-27T10:32:00.000-08:00Elsie - I found it picked up dust pretty well.

I use a plastic coffee "can", take a roll of heavy duty paper towels (usually the strongest Bounty brand), cut in half with a very sharp knife, remove the cardboard from the center, place in the plastic coffee container, pour a mixture of 1 cup all purpose cleaner & 1 cup of water on top. Wool-lah. You can also use a plastic ice cream bucket (anything with a lid). Experiment with your favorite cleaners & scents!

The wipes can't pick up dust and dirt, and they're terrible on mirrors and chrome. I use 'em only on the toilet seat now and won't be buying another canister when they're gone.<BR/><BR/>Does Method pick up dust? I suppose I'm open to other brands.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
