What is your go to cleaning product?

I love CIF cream cleaner and Stardrops "The Pink Stuff" (miracle cleaning paste.) How about everyone else?

Fairy liquid!

Cif cream cleaner (I’m old though so in my head it is jif).

And I used to love a cleaner spray that I can’t find and can’t remember what it was. It was aqua green and I’m sure it was oxy/oxygen or something...

Flash with bleach
Dettol pomegranate spray (excellent for getting dirt out of textured vinyl flooring!)

Viakal. Sometimes vinegar just is not enough.

OldLordy · 08/05/2021 18:41

Pretty much all of the astonish range but especially the one that lifts grease off. It's like magic.

Stardrops - I use it everywhere (kitchen, bathroom, windows, floors). I discovered many years ago when reading a thread on Moneysavingexpert ('Stardrops.. I have seen the light').

Viakal
Flash spray wipe done
Elbow grease
Astonish mould and mildew cleaner
Brillo pads for oven racks
My vileda spin mop

JadeSeahorse · 10/05/2021 06:30

HG mould remover spray!

ArnottsUnderpass · 10/05/2021 07:01

Dr Bronner liquid soap.

Watered down = spray safe for oak worktops and all surfaces. Discovered it also cleans the glass hob better than anything else! In hot water it washes floors brilliantly.

Pink stuff gets really grim things clean quickly.

Those harpic tablets you drop down the loo overnight that blitz the limescale.

Tesco cotton fresh all purpose cleaner (with a screw top - I use it for mopping and also dilute it in spray bottle) smells so good.

Original fairy.

Flash bathroom.

Viakal.

A spray of water and white vinegar.

Bleach.

TigerTulip · 10/05/2021 08:48

HG Grease Away for hob and oven

Method Glass Cleaner (blu-ish liquid) is amazing

Method rhubarb squirt and mop floor cleaner in my squirty mop for in between major cleans

Confusedandshaken · 10/05/2021 10:30

Koh for pretty much everything. Microfibre cloths. Ajax powder for loos.

Elbow Grease spray is another I wouldn't want to be without.

tobee · 17/05/2021 22:13

I don't get on with pink stuff and wonder what I'm doing wrong?

userxx · 17/05/2021 22:14

@MrsTophamHat

The Pink Stuff paste and Stainless steel shine spray

What is this shine spray ? I think this is exactly what I e been missing!

AlwaysLatte · 17/05/2021 22:18

I also love The Pink Stuff, also Method rhubarb or orange for the kitchen and method bathroom products too including the shower spray.

Nsky · 17/05/2021 22:19

Vinegar, bio d washing up liquid, and bio d powdered bleach

IveNameChangedAgain2020 · 17/05/2021 22:21

@tobee me too! Bought a tub and it cleaned nothing!

QueenPaw · 17/05/2021 22:25

Pink stuff cream cleaner. I put it over the shower doors then rinse while I'm in the shower and it doesn't smell too strong or irritate my skin

Viakal for limescale

Fabulosa to make stuff smell nice

Old flannels. I use them for so much

Anydreamwilldo12 · 17/05/2021 22:26

Method rhubarb kitchen spray and the shower spray (blue one)is fantastic and smells divine.
Micro fibre cloths, wet with water for dusting then dry to polish up. Also same for cleaning windows with just water, no need for sprays.
Pan pals. Amazing little things.

Charlieandlola · 17/05/2021 22:29

Method stainless steel
Cleaner - amazing for microwave and sinks
