I love the idea of bicarb - unfortunately it doesnt work fast or well enough for me lol!
Showers, baths, glass, grout mould : Magic Eraser Sponges for bathrooms - best soap scum remover ever.
Walls - marks etc : Magic Eraser Sponges for the walls - they remove 99% of marks with no damage to the existing paint etc (just test an inconspicuous place first to make sure).
Kitchens - benches, cupboards etc : Magic Eraser Sponges for the Kitchen - removes grease, grime etc (havent tried them in the oven though)
Magic Eraser Sponges are available in the supermarkets in the sponge section - they are around $3 for two sponges and there a different ones for each use as above. They are disposable though - they gradually wear away with use.
Ive just found them thanks to the suggestion of someone else - and I am addicted to them.
Im a private housekeeper and I recently had to clean a shower that was grey with soap scum and the glass was white from soap scum.. I used jif and a scourer and it hardly budged it no matter how hard I scrubbed...
I bought the shower erasers.. and Im not kidding - everything just came off so easily.
I dont even own any other cleaners for those purposes anymore.
