Just wanted to pop in and shout a big "Thank you" from me for your channel. I now have scrub Mommies and Daddy's (love them! ) I actually managed to find Bar Keeper's friend, the cream, and the powder, which was a real challenge for me in the back end of nowhere in rural Ireland. Total game changer You are the "Bee's Knees". Thank you

I have a cheap toilet brush I’ve dedicated to my garbage disposal (it’s never been in a toilet!). I use some BKF on the brush and stick it in the disposal and go to town. Twisting as I slowly pull the brush out gets that disgusting rubber flap very clean!

I knew the “soaking in vinegar for hours” trick for sprayers. But CLR for 2-3 mins? Yes, thank you! Btw, ty for showing how you rinse shower walls when the shower arm/head are stationary. I bought a square bowl from Dollar Tree, and use that to rinse the walls. I used to splash, rather than pour on the rinse water. Your method is much better.

Barkeepers Friend may very well be the best cleaner on the market. When we purchased our home last year, it was going to be a few months before gutting the kitchen. I used that stuff on the existing counters, sink, appliances, they all sparkled and looked like they probably did in 1998 when they were installed. The cleaning lady must have stock in the company, because she uses it on everything! I will say, the Pink Stuff gives it a run for its money though!

Perhaps this works for medium stains and generally dirty sink. My sink had deep dark stains (looked like dried oil) compounded by hard water stains (Texas). I ended up sanding the sink with 400 grit sandpaper (I wet sanded it). Worked perfectly. I will polish with automobile rubbing compound and polish for brilliant shine. This saved me from buying a new sink. You might try this. Note sandpaper can cause scratch marks on your sink. If so you might need to sand with finer grades wet sandpaper (say 400, 600. 800, 1000, then 2000 grit to get scratch marks off) and then polish. No guarantees here, just a suggestion. You can try on a small hidden section first to check. YMMV.

I would also recommend using a garbage disposal cleaner to clean out the inside of your garbage disposal. You can find some good ones for not that much, I find it really helps keep the smells out of the sink. The ones I use are just tablets you drop in and run the disposal, they foam up so I use them before I clean my sink.

@CleanThatUp 3 ай бұрын

Yes, great tip! I love the ones from CLR

@toniblackmore3016 3 ай бұрын

I read that it's just watered down Dawn plus some rubbing alcohol. But I do like how their spray bottle makes the product a bit foamy. I got a bunch of refills really cheap on Prime Days last year, but when I run out, I'm going to try putting a DIY recipe in the Dawn spray bottle and see how it goes! I use it to clean everything from baking sheets to my shower; I think the alcohol makes a big difference in grime removing capability. But it does dry out my skin if I'm not careful. 😊

I feel like this comment kind of shames people who don’t. My mother taught me the right way too. Because of long work hours and a medical condition that leaves me wiped out after working all day, I can’t do this level of cleaning daily. I already get down on myself for not cleaning the way that I was raised. I’m trying not to beat myself up over it. Sometimes comments like that just hit wrong. Honestly, at the age of 57, I’ve been in many people’s houses and I have found that actually most people don’t clean at this level, at all. So you shouldn’t really be too surprised.
