it's not evaporation rate. it's an osmotic thing. with too high % alcohol the cells don't even take it in.




and what about an extra ingredient? like lemon essence? will it affect effectiveness?

natural lemon oil has disinfectant properties of it's own so it could be beneficial to have it in the mix. just make sure that the product you're getting has actual lemon oil and not just some chemical that smells like lemon. citrus oils can be a bit caustic though, they make a paint stripper out of orange oil, so it would probably be good to avoid leaving any residue behind. here's a basic recipe to make this yourself and some other uses for it: http://www.liverenewed.com/2013/08/green-cleaning-with-lemon-essential-oil-green-in-365.html
