What type of disinfectant is required to be used on pedicure basins?

  1. Regular strength disinfectant

  2. Cosmetic grade disinfectant

  3. Hospital grade disinfectant

  4. Vinegar solution

The correct answer is: Hospital grade disinfectant

The correct type of disinfectant required to be used on pedicure basins is a hospital grade disinfectant. While regular strength disinfectants may be effective for general household cleaning, they may not be strong enough to kill all bacteria and germs found in pedicure basins. Cosmetic grade disinfectants may also not be strong enough for this specific use. Vinegar solution, while a natural disinfectant, may not be sufficient for killing tougher bacteria and viruses that could be present in a pedicure basin. It is recommended to use a hospital grade disinfectant to ensure proper sanitation and safety for clients.
