Is Clorox duping the consumer?

Did you know that Clorox bleach is 6% sodium hypochlorite and 94% other (inert) ingredients?

Did you know that Clorox Clean-up with bleach is 1.84% sodium hypochlorite and 98.16% other ingredients?

Did you know that Tilex mold and mildew remover and Tilex
mildew root penetrator and remover both contain 2.4% sodium hypochlorite and 97.6% other ingredients?

In all fairness to Clorox, they tell you on the back on their bleach label how to dilute bleach for household cleaning. But nowhere on these other products do they tell you that these other products are only diluted bleach.

Just thought you should know.

Talk About A Rip

Compared the labels of the old clorox to the "new" clorox ultra. The DIFFERENCE was the old was 5% sodium-h, the "new" was 5.5% sodium-h. A half of a percent difference. Just goes to prove; you can fool some of the people some of the time...... And what's with those funky odd sized bottles. Whatever happened to a gallon of bleach? Still can buy a gallon of "clorex" in the green bottle at a few places. Reminds me, doller general stuck a cheap, cheezy $1.25 sticker over the top of the printed $1 price on their gallon of bleach a few weeks ago.

I personally prefer diluted regular bleach over the other products you mention, but I've used them and they are as effective when used according the the directions.

Where's the ripoff here?
