What is the name of a common ammonia-based cleaner?


I am planning on cleaning and painting a set of plastic patio furniture, and the instructions that I found at Krylon.com suggest cleaning the pieces with an ammonia-based cleaner before spray painting them. Is there a leading brand of ammonia-based cleaner that I should look for when I go to the store?

Go to the household cleaning section of your local department store and simply look for a product that says ammonia. Read the directions carefully and make sure that the area the ammonia is being used in is well ventilated. Do not use a chlorine based product as others have suggested.

Cloyrox

I suggest Parsons Amonia available at your supermarket.

chlorox but dont use it in a closed space bcecause ammonia can make you pass out and if you dont get fresh air soon you ll die of inhalation

You should be able to find generic houshold ammonia in the cleaners section of you local supermarket.

Windex or any glass cleaner
Scrubbing Bubbles

Windex. I don't know what the deal is with all the bleach answers. They're not the same thing. Actually, if you mix bleach with ammonia, it will give off harmful fumes. So don't mix the two.

They are wrong. Clorox is a chlorine bleach. Just buy yourself a bottle of ammonia at the store and follow the label directions.

Do NOT use Clorox, it is chlorine bleach.
Mr. Clean is an ammonia based cleaner.
