multipurpose cleaner

Versatile cleaning liquid

A multipurpose cleaner is a cleaning product designed to work on various surfaces and types of dirt, eliminating the need for specialized cleaners.

Most are liquid solutions sold in spray bottles for use on countertops, appliances, glass, and bathroom fixtures: I just use multipurpose cleaner for everything.

The term appears on labels to distinguish from single-purpose products like oven cleaner or toilet bowl cleaner.
