Counters

You won't have to worry about if any raw meat was prepared on the bathroom counters but it is still a good idea to clean it with the Ajax or Comet that you used on the bathroom sink. Just keep in mind that you don't want to discolor the counter top.

Mirrors

Hopefully when you move the mirror or mirrors in the bathroom will not have streaks, which of course won't mean that a mirror is dirty but it is nice to have a clear mirror, and does not show any signs that it is dirty. A little bit a Windex will ensure that you know that the mirror is clean.

Cabinets
