Cleaning vinegar contains around six percent acetic acid, making it 20% stronger than white distilled vinegar for tackling cleaning chores. You may want to buy several bottles of vinegar, because this list of household uses for vinegar covers nearly every room in the house. For water spots on glass shower doors, pour one cup of distilled white vinegar into a microwaveable bowl and heat for 30 to 45 seconds. Pour the warm vinegar into a spray bottle, then add a few drops of dishwashing liquid. Spray it onto the doors and allow it to work for five minutes before sponging away. Rinse the doors and dry with a microfiber cloth.
