What about another liquid? Is there a “perfect” cleaner, something that spreads and penetrates like nothing else?

Very interested in the answer.

    The soap makes water wetter things was from a Bill Nye episode. I mean he really simplified it for a kids science show. There’s a bit more going on with soap than simply the surface tension being reduced. You’ve got emulsifier, surfactants, etc.

    I don’t think reducing surface tension alone will make a better cleaner.
