Pint-Size Door Knob Sanitizer

Quick. Easy. Fits most standard knobs.

Step 1: Gather Everything You'll Need

• 1 Pint Mason Jar
• 1 1/4 cup Clear Elmer's Glue
• 1/2 tsp Borax
• Few drops of food coloring
• 1 1/2 cup Water*
• Couple of bowls*
• Measuring cups*
• Couple squirts of Hand Sanitizer*

* Not shown

Step 2: Mix Glue, Water, and Food Coloring

• Take a mixing bowl
• Add 1 1/4 cup of Clear Elmer's Glue
• Add 1/2 cup water
• Mix them together
• Add a few drops of food coloring*

* I choose yellow for a lemonade-y look

Step 3: Mix Borax and Water

• Take ANOTHER bowl
• Add 1 cup of water
• Add 1/2 tsp of Borax
• Mix together

Step 4: Mix Both Bowls Together

• Slowly pour the contents of the Borax bowl into the glue bowl
• Mix until desired consistency is reached*

* I started by stirring with a spoon and then got in there with my hands. It's totally up to you how you want to do it.

Step 5: Knead in Hand Sanitizer

• Add a couple of squirts of hand sanitizer
• Knead sanitizer in by hand
• Repeat 1x

Step 6: Add Gel to Mason Jar

• Add cleaning gel to the Mason jar
• Excess gel can be played with or stored separately

Step 7: Start Sanitizing

• Insert door knob into Mason jar
• Knob will displace gel, providing a deep clean*
• DON'T FORGET TO PUT THE LID BACK ON WHEN YOU'RE DONE.

* If too much is displaced, just remove some gel from the jar.

Step 8: Occasional Top-off

• Add a pump of sanitizer from time to time
• If it gets really nasty, just make more gel

Step 9: Enjoy!
