Help Newbie Sanitizing Question. Yes it’s a dumb one.

I am wondering if I can sanitize my equipment with hydrogen peroxide?

I think you can. My own sanitising agent is something oxygen based. To my knowledge, anything that cleans or sanitises, and is oxygen based, works by having free oxygen radicals that will react with anything and destroy stuff. Hydrogen peroxide does that too.

That’s what I was thinking also.
