    Most Effective Scrubber: Extra Thick Magic Cleaning Pads

    Review: "Magic. These will take scratches off of your painted walls, floors, and even cars! I live in the city and have to park on the street. I came out to blue paint having rubbed off on my bumper from another careless driver. A few swipes with one of these puppies, and you can barely tell! I’m still using my first sponge! They last better than the Magic Eraser brand from my experience so far." - Christina Horvath

    Best At Grime Removal : Bioclean Hard Water Stain Remover

    Best At Grime Removal : Bioclean Hard Water Stain Remover

    Review: "I don’t normally write reviews, but this product worked so well I felt like I had to leave a review. I’m ashamed of how dirty I let my shower get, but I had almost given up since no products ever seemed to help with the hard water spots. I finally gave this a try based on reading/watching other reviews and it worked amazing! I highly recommend using an electric drill with a brush head and go slow." - Jarrett Trtek

    Rust Removal Champion: Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser Liquid

    Review: "I used Bar Keepers Friend on my stainless steel kitchen trash can. Scrubbing with multipurpose spray did nothing to get rid of the small stains all over the trash can. I was ready to buy a new one until I tried this. It removed most stains to an almost-new condition. I used enough of the material that I had to hose down my trash can once I was done scrubbing, but it was well worth it. " - Kasey L.

    If a scent is left, the soap residue is still there, and that residue contains grime.
