D-Limonene

Are you familiar with D-Limonene?
It’s an all-natural, non-toxic solvent, cleaning solution, and degreaser. You can use it as an industrial grade hard surface cleaner for removing all sorts of difficult stains, grime, grease, labels, ink, dyes, tar, goo, glue, etc. It’s especially good for removing stubborn labels and stickers. It can be a paint stripper, food-safe insecticide, bug spray, kitchen cleaner, wood finisher, electronics cleaner, automotive cleaner, weed killer, air freshener, adhesive remover, chewing gum remover, mold remover, essential oil, flavoring agent, and even an oral digestive supplement. It’s just so versatile.
D-Limonene is made out of hyper-concentrated orange peels. It has a potent orange smell that stings the nostrils. It is available in food-grade form, but it’s so potent you should be careful because it can burn through plastic or skin. Imagine concentrating orange peels into such a potent solution that it can burn a hole through plastic! That’s D-Limonene in a nutshell. D-Limonine is not a corporate brand or gimmick, it is a type of chemical.
I recommend keeping a bottle around the house for difficult cleaning jobs which will inevitably arise.
I just used a few drops of it to remove an impossible sticker from an Ikea dinner plate. The sticker came off without a trace.
One time I was walking on the beach in Southern California and I stepped on a bit of tar that washed up from an offshore oil spill. It clung to and nearly ruined my favorite sandals. That tar is very nasty stuff that refuses to wash off with anything. But D-Limonine can dissolve tar.
Got ants? You can use D-Limonine on them without poisoning your dog or your kid.
(Note: D-Limonine and all citrus oils are toxic to cats.)
Got weeds? You can make a non-toxic weed killer by mixing D-Limonine with dish soap and vinegar.
It’s affordable, can be bought in bulk, and lasts for years.
