Don't believe it folks! Drackett Professional is the division of SC
Johnson that produces Windex. All Windex seems to contain about 3%
isopropanol and about 1% butoxethanol. The difference seems to be that
institutional Windex contains about 1% ethylene glycol n hexyl ether,
while household Windex contains less than 1%.
Windex is 95% water. Naturally an insitutional customer could save
money by buying it as a concentrate. The concentrate isn't intended as
a stronger cleaner. It's intended to be mixed, 1 part concentrate to 9
parts water.
I think it's a publicity stunt for the Drackett division of SC Johnson.
Papa Gary would do *anything* to get Marcey to go out with him.
Bringing SC Johnson aboard as a sponsor might be his ticket.
