I'm going to have to go with charlest on this one, because it makes good sense (darn it since I never thought of it before). I used to follow the mixture of thirds of each of the mentioned additives, but I think in the future it makes better sense to change it up a bit.

 

From now on I'll go with 1/2 70% ISO Alcohol, 1/3 Simple Green, 1/6 Water (whatever amount remains after filling other additives). This will add up to within 1% of having 33% for each ingredient.

 

Mighty Buffalo - I think you have a good point about making your alcohol lasting longer by keeping the original ratio, but for most of us the intent is about making a solution that is effective and not so much about making the ingredients "stretch out longer".

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the
judgement that something else is more important than fear...
