Just wanted to add that I've discovered that Mr Muscle Touch Up has an almost miraculously unbelievable and wonderful property!

Teenage Boys Will Use It WITHOUT BEING TOLD!!! Shock

Yes, I know it sounds inexplicable and you'll all call me a troll but I left my bottle of Mr M bathroom cleaner in the loo used almost exclusively by our 2 teen boys. Mysteriously after a week the amount seemed to have gone down. At first I assumed it was evaporation but the loo also seemed unusually fresh. On close questioning DS1 admitted that both he and ds2 had been using it with a wodge of loo paper to clear up stinky drips .

(Doesn't explain why the bottle of disinfectant spray next to tho loo has remained untouched except by me for years, but hey, who's complaining?)

I thought it was a bit gimicky and expensive at first but I will be buying another bottle. Any other products that have this effect??

Mrsdonalddraper · 12/09/2013 17:01

When I first got it I couldn't really work out when I would use it, rather thn spraying the whole kitchen bench, but:

V easy to use
V effective - used it mainly on my hob and it was excellent - one of the best products I've tried
Not sure as I tend to clean all the kitchen benches in one go, so it's a bit of a habit changer
I tend to buy my cleaning products when they're on offer, so would wait until then
V easy to use
If it came up in conversation, yes I would

JackieNo · 13/09/2013 07:57

I had the bathroomone, and I've really liked it.

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use? - Very easy, really convenient.
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner? Pretty effective; I kept it on the top of the toilet, and used it to clean that, rather than the sink - it wasn't as convenient for me for that, for some reason. I think I liked the fact that I could just use it with a bit of toilet paper for those annoying drips!
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner? Yes for the toilet, used it whenever needed/thought about it, but no for bigger bathroom cleaning jobs - that might have something to do with the fact that I use a microfibre cloth, and it doesn't need additional cleaner, but I do like the ability of spray bottles to spray the sink all over, then go in with the cloth and clean it.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not? Yes, I might well buy it again. I may try the Kitchen one.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas? No, don't think so.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner? It was just there, ready. I'm a sucker for interesting packaging. Bottle didn't look too intrusive. Could use with toilet paper.
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not? Yes, probably, though I'm not sure it would come up in conversation.
RedKites · 13/09/2013 14:47
  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
It was reasonably easy to use, although the first time I clearly didn't press down evenly/enough as I managed to partly miss my cloth and got cleaner on the worktop it was sat on. I haven't spotted anyone else mentioning such issues though, so suspect that is just a lack of coordination on my part!
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I used it to clean up the hob. It certainly made an improvement on it, but it wasn't as good as a proper clean. I'm not convinced it was any more effective than hot soapy water.
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
In the interests of testing it, I have been trying to use it for some 'touch up' kinds of cleaning. When I heard about the product, I thought I might use it for lots of jobs where I'd normally use a washing up bowl of hot soapy water at the moment. However, having read the instructions, I don't feel comfortable using it on DS2's high chair. Nevertheless the high chair needs cleaning ~ 3 times a day, so my bowl of water is there anyway, so I haven't used the touch up cleaner very much.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
I am not using the kitchen version enough to justify buying it again. I might consider buying the bathroom version if I see it on offer.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
Nothing particular I can think of.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It looks alright just left sat out on the work top.
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
If they mentioned a cleaning problem which the touch up cleaner might help with, I'd mention it, but I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend it, as I'm not that convinced by it myself.
NotInGuatemalaNowDrRopata · 13/09/2013 16:58

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Easier to use than I thought it would be, just press down on it!

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Very effective. I got the bathroom one and used it to clean the toilet seat after my little boys had been in there - much quicker and easier than getting cleaning stuff out of the cupboard.
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Yes, I use it more often than other cleaners because it's right there on the window sill above the toilet.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
Yes, I would, and I would get it for both toilets in our house.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
Something specifically for the glass shower screen that needs cleaning all. the. time.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It's inoffensive looking
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
Yes, I would - it's great to have around when you have little kids.

Ease of use

WhatWouldGrandmaDo · 13/09/2013 17:18

I used the kitchen product.

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Very easy, I think the dispenser was the best thing about it
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It was ok, not great on tough stains and grease I thought
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I used it instead of antibacterial spray for surfaces etc, several times a day after meals mainly. It substituted other products.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
No, the anti bac spray is less than half the price and I prefer it
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
I think I'd prefer the bathroom one to the kitchen one I used.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Small package & easy to use
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
No, I really didn't like the smell and didn't think it really did anything other products don't already do cheaper. The dispenser was the only new thing really.
crikeybadger · 13/09/2013 17:38

I tested the kitchen cleaner.

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
I actually didn't find it that easy to use at first. It was a bit counter intuitive for me and was kind of expecting to push the button and for the liquid to come through a tap rather than through the top. I did get used to it though, just found it a bit fiddly.

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It did clean quite well although I wasn't overly fussed on the smell of it.
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Not really, I used it for wiping down the table and the work tops after cooking. Perhaps I used it a little bit more because there was no fiddling around taking a lid of a bottle.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
Possibly not, if it was on offer I might. I tend to buy the Ecover all purpose cleaner as I like the smell so much- a bit more lemony and fresher than the Mr Muscle one.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
I can't think where else it could be used.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
The design of the bottle looked nice and it was good that there was no chance of knocking it over. I guess there is the potential for it to be quite economical too as you tend to just use one squirt at a time.
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
I'm not sure- I can't say I would rave about it, but I would suggest that they give it a try. Having scanned this thread, I think most people seem to really be impressed by it.
Mandz07 · 13/09/2013 18:42
  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

I felt it was easy to use however the amount that was dispensed at a time was no where near enough

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

It really depends on what was being cleaned usually effective though

  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not?

No

If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

No I don't think I would pay that price for it there are cheaper products that work better

  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

I don't think so

  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

It didn't really have much appeal to me at all

  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not,

No I don't think so. Reason as above

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Its easy enough but you cannot tell how much you get on your cloth

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
it cleabed ok
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I used less probably as it comes out in measured doses
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
No, its expensive and although it looks nice and is designed to be left out I hate clutter on my surfaces so would not want to leave it out
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas? TBH if it was in a spray it would be just as good as I say I dont actually want a cleaner sat on my worksurface, bathroom shelf etc
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
it smelt nice
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
no as really its only as good as a spray type or bottle its only any better if someone wants a cleaner to sit conveniently on a workspace. bit of a gimmick really but good if thats what you want. sorry. I tested the kitchen one
OhThisIsJustGrape · 13/09/2013 19:23

- How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Very easy, just use a sheet of kitchen towel folded, hold over top of bottle and press down.
- How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Very effective, removed dried gravy splashes on counter and worked well on my ceramic hob too which normally smears with non-specific cleaners
- Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I wouldn't say I uses it more often than my regular cleaners but this is probably because I clean my kitchen a number of times a day - first thing in morning, after preparing every meal - so it wouldn't replace my usual cleaners but it does what it says on the tin. Perfect for in between cleans as a touch up cleaner.
- The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
I probably wouldn't buy the kitchen cleaner as, like I said above, I have other products that I use regularly and I'm not convinced I'd use this enough to bother.
- Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
I can't think of any other cleaners necessary in this format, I have already used the kitchen version on dining room table and the children's table in playroom. Also for remov

Feedback for Kitchen Cleaner:-

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

Really easy to use. So handy to have it out on the side and a quick squirt onto the cloth and you are away!

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Very effective. My sides looked and smelt clean after use.

  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Yes. I have been using it a couple of times a day because it is just there and so easy to use.

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?

I think this is a good price and I would certainly buy it again.

  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

No I don't think I would use it elsewhere.

  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

The ease of use and the fact it looks nice enough to have on the windowsill on a permanent basis. Once it's in view you are more likely to use it!

  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

Yes I would. It is a good kitchen cleaner that is very easy to use and good value for money.

I can't think of any other cleaners necessary in this format, I have already used the kitchen version on dining room table and the children's table in playroom. Also for removing fingerprints from French doors which was quite impressive!
- What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Quick and easy to use, less faff than searching under sink for correct product just to wipe up a small spill. I must confess that I bought the bathroom version of this too and I've used it far more than the kitchen one. I currently have it residing in the children's bathroom and its perfect when they have left toothpaste in sink as I just grab some toilet roll, squirt and wipe. I find it far more use to me than the kitchen one tbh.
- If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
I would recommend the bathroom cleaner as I think it's a great idea as so convenient to use with toilet roll and then flush away! Probably wouldn't recommend the kitchen cleaner but that's only because it doesn't really add anything to my cleaning routine.

WhereAreMyShoes · 13/09/2013 21:23

Thanks for the product, I received the kitchen cleaner eventually and have loved it!

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Once I'd managed to get into the thing first time I have found it immensely easy to use.
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It works quite well. It gets through the dried up instant coffee granules that get left by the kettle and turn to cement. And it makes the counter tops look clean, rather than smeary.
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Because it's left out on the side and it only takes a push I seem to be doing extra wipe downs. I am usually rather lazy when it comes to the kitchen but it has been looking nice lately because I am keeping the tops clear and wiped.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
Definitely not for that price. I would absolutely buy the bathroom version if it was on offer.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
I think a kitchen and bathroom version are sufficient really. Unless there's lots of cleaning I should be doing that I don't know about.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
The pump. Really easy to use and I found not using a spray stopped the breathtaking fumes flying around,
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
Yes, I think it's brilliant. It works well, smells alright and makes me clean up more often. Disclaimer: I'm rubbish at housework and don't really enjoy much of it. Especially cleaning the kitchen!
chrissie66 · 13/09/2013 21:38

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
I was sent the Mr Muscle bathroom cleaner - I found the cleaner easy to use but the suggestion to use it with toilet paper was not a very good idea as the toilet paper disintigrated and left bits of paper everywhere.

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It was effective to use on minor stains/marks, but for soap scum and limescale I needed to use my regular cleaner.
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
As the name suggests, the cleaner is ideal for giving toilets/sinks etc a quick wipe over or refresh. I found that I still needed my regular cleaner for a more thorough, weekly clean.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
I don't think I would pay £2.99 when there are cheaper, much more effective alternatives on the market.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
I would love a mild cleaner which easily and effectively removed limescale.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It had a pleasant smell which was not too overpowering. It also has a convenient easy to use dispenser.
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
I don't think I would recommend the cleaner to family or friends as it is not a product that I will be rushing out to purchase myself.
HazeltheMcWitch · 13/09/2013 23:16

(I received the kitchen cleaner. Thanks for picking me for the trial!)

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Very easy to use!
  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I think it works well; it got through the dried coffee granules that PP has mentioned, it also cut through dried egg yolk splashes (thanks mum...)
  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I probably have done, yes. Half of that is down to the fact that is it new, and I am reviewing it for here, but a large part is due to the fact that is is so easy to use.
  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
I think £2.99 is quite expensive for a cleaner. If it was on offer, or there was a good-priced refill I think I'd buy it, but in all honestly, I'll probably stick with a spray cleaner - whatever's on offer or cheap.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
No, i think that they are the only areas that need frequent cleaning.
  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
The ease of use.
  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
I would, but I'd be honest and say that I thought that £2.99 was expensive for what it is.
ImATotJeSuisUneTot · 14/09/2013 08:25

We got sent the touch up kitchen cleaner.

I love it. It's easy to use, and handily sits out on the kitchen sink ready to use - without looking ugly or out of place. DP loves the novelty too which means he actually uses it. Grin

I've used it loads and the bottle still looks full - so well worth the £2.99 price tag for me - no doubt it will be on offer at some point too.

I've already recommended it to people at work, and will be buying some for my classroom as soon as I see it - (food tech)

Thanks for letting me try this, I'm a convert! :-))

Thanks for choosing me to trial this, I loved it!
I liked the container, found it to be an effective cleaner and smelled pleasant. My bathroom definitely stayed cleaner as I was doing a touch up clean whenever a mess was made as it was no hassle, the cleaner just stayed on my windowsill.
Im really pleased this is priced at £2.99, I think that is reasonable and I am definitely going to get the kitchen version.
I would like if refill packs were available.
I would definitely recommend if it came up in conversation, I was really pleased with it.
As for other products, perhaps a polish kind of one forr wiping down living room funiture/banisters/shelves, I go through a load of furniture polish!

I have been testing the bathroom cleaner.

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
I found it very easy to use, being able to get the product out with one hand would be very handy if you were at the small-baby-wants-carried-all-day stage (although thankfully I am personally past that stage now!)
How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
It was more effective that I expected, I was pleasantly surprised.
Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I have continued to use my usual cleaner for the bulk of my bathroom cleaning (I tend to just use hot soapy water, rather than specific products or antibacterial cleaners) but where I have found the touch up cleaner to be really useful is for things like cleaning sticky handprints off the shower screen. Far easier to take a quick squirt of Mr Muscle than to start running hot water into the sink etc
The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
I don't think I would probably buy it at £2.99, although I might if it was on a half price offer in the supermarket. I just don't think it would represent great value for money - I found that the bottle of cleaner didn't last all that long, and although it was convenient, that is a lot of money to spend just to save a few seconds here and there. I'm not wealthy enough, or busy enough, to see the trade off as being worthwhile.
Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
I don't think there is any need for any further products - in fact, I don't even really see the need to separate into separate products for kitchen and bathroom. Cleaning is cleaning, as far as I'm concerned - a product either cleans stuff, or it doesn't.
What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
What I liked most was the convenience, and also the fact that it didn't have an overpowering artificial smell.
If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
I probably would recommend it, it did what it said it would do, unlike many products on the market, so its worth mentioning, if the subject came up.

I have been using the Kitchen cleaner.

How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?
Found it very easy to use, it had a pleasant smell which, unlike many spray cleaners, didn't irritate my nose or breathing.

How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
I found it very effective. I usually use wipes because of my problems with sprays and found the Mr Muscle much better at cleaning the tea stains my DDs continually leave on the worktop, I usually resort to bleach for these. It did a great job on the windows too.

Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Yes, used it instead of usual cleaning product. I also found my DDs were more likely to clean up after themselves as they didn't have to search around for the something to clean with and liked how it woke and the smell.

The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
Yes and I will be looking out for the bathroom version.
Its the kind of product I will pay full price for when I run out but will stock up on when on special offer.

Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?
Can't think of any.

What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?
Effective, easy to use and as it looks good it sits out I don't have to dig around under the sink when a quick clean up is required, and not as "toxic" to me as other similar product some of which I have had to bin after one use.

If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?
Already have.

  • How easy or difficult did you find the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to use?

I have been testing the kitchen cleaner.I found it easy to use and I liked the size of the bottle. Its ideal to leave on the kitchen work surface without it being unsightly.

  • How effective did you find Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

Mr Muscle Touch - Up Cleaner is very effective and because of the unique push down lid design I found I used less spray then when I use other cleaners with a spray nozzle which is surely a good thing.

  • Did you find that you used Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner more regularly than your other cleaning products or not? If so, how often did you use Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I don't think I used it any more than I normally use cleaners, I always give a quick wipe around when I make a drink or waiting for the kettle to boil. I do prefer it though as it has a pleasant smell and not like other cleaners which can be a bit too harsh.

  • The RRP for the Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner is £2.99, do you think you'll be likely to buy it again or not? If so, why? If not why not?
I would buy it again , but maybe not at that price. I think it is a bit steep for a kitchen cleaner when you can buy equivalents for £1 - £2.
  • Mr Muscle Touch-Up cleaner is currently available for the kitchen and bathroom. Would you like Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner for other areas of your house? If so, which areas?

I use the cleaner in the bedrooms too. Its especially good at cleaning the mirrors and I used it for cleaning my make up area- great at getting rid of mascara stains!

  • What did you like most about Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner?

I really like the smell and the small,compact size of the bottle.

  • If it came up in conversation, would you recommend Mr Muscle Touch-Up Cleaner to your friends/family? If so why? If not, why not?

Yes, I would. It does what it says on the bottle and has a really nice , clean smell.

I saw it in Asda today reduced to £1.50, so bought another kitchen one, and also a bathroom one to try.
