Yes, but it is not recommended. Clorox can be used in a restaurant kitchen and is mainly deployed in washing ware, but not of the preferred list of disinfectants used in a kitchen. One should proceed with caution using bleach in any quantity when in doubt it is best to consult the manufacturer of the product. Chlorine bleach is used in restaurants when quality must be sacrificed for quality.
The downside of bleach is that it can be rendered toxic when it comes into contact with other chemicals, creating toxic and deadly fumes. The one chemical bleach must never be mixed with is Ammonia always, if wanting to dilute the bleach, always mix with water and nothing else.
To prepare an effective solution you can for cleaning/wiping towels, a good safe method would be to prepare a five-gallon bucket of water with two tablespoons of bleach. This will ensure that the titration is above 50 ppm; somewhere in the range of 75-100 ppm.
It just cannot be repeated enough that Chlorine must never be mixed with other solutions other than water. Having bleach and Ammonia mixed together can form a deadly compound of toxic fumes and vapor known as chloramine vapor. It is always recommended to follow the instructions on the label as these always have the proper instructions for handling the chemicals in question.
