Soft Scrub Advanced Surface

Soft Scrub Advanced Surface
Tough on stains, gentle on surfaces

As a Purex Insider I was sent a full sized Soft Scrub Advanced Surface bottle. I don't normally use Soft Scrub anywhere but the bathrooms because of the strong odors it can produce but I thought what the heck since my kitchen needed a good scrub down.

You just apply the gel to the surface, came out a bit too fast for me, and wipe away with a cloth, sponge or paper towel. It really did a good job of cutting through the grease on the stove. I would have taken before pictures but they way it looked, you would probably have passed out! I, in all honesty do not have the time or the energy to scrub the stove every day!
 And under the stovetop....
 

And the liners.....



It still has the same potent smell, but with the vent fan on it didn't bother me too much this time. 
This product is specially formulated for granite and marble countertops, stainless steel appliances and stovetops.
All that being said I was sent THREE (3) coupons for the readers of my blog and review. Since this is the first time I am doing this, I am going to make it very simple to enter! Even if you dont win, you can still enter the Soft Scub Sweepstakes, on their website, and maybe win something there!
Or.... if you dont win, or even if you do, here is the link to a $1.00 off coupon!

Disclaimer: I was provided the Soft Scrub Advanced Surface cleaner for review at no charge to me. I was not compensated in any way. 
HERE ARE THE 3 WINNERS OF THE GIVEAWAY! THEY HAVE 48 HOURS TO GET BACK TO ME. THEY HAVE ALL BEEN SENT AN EMAIL!

    I try to do a little cleaning each night after the kids go to bed, so they won't disrupt me and mess it all up immediately.

    You can use a lemon to get rid of calcium deposits in your sink, just cut open a lemon (or save the rind after making some lemonade and use that) and rub it on the calcium deposits! Then rinse it off. :) Voila!

    My best cleaning tip is preventative. Do not wear your shoes inside the house. Take shoes off in your entry or in your garage. If you don't track dirt and germs inside, you don't have to spend time cleaning them off!

    We have really hard water and it leaves rings in the toilet if I neglect cleaning them each week. I've found that the only thing that can get those rings off is sand paper! Gone in an instant.

    To clean the microwave, put a bowl of water with 1/4 or 1/2 a lemon and heat it up. It will make the microwave smell good as well as clean it.

    One of my favorites is to microwave a bowl of water with a little lemon juice in for about 1 minute. The steam helps loosen up the grime and the lemon juice helps give a fresh smell

    spray the stovetop down and let the cleaner work while you load the dishwasher. By the time you are done, it will have done its magic and you wont have to scrub

    One of my favorite go-to cleaning tips is simply using baking soda. For surfaces where you don't want to use harsh cleaner, a paste of baking soda and water can work wonders to uncrust things. mary987 (at) hotmail (dot) com

    My best tip is to try & clean up spills as soon as they happen, The longer they sit.. The HARDER they will be to clean up.

    Lemons work great for cleaning a microwave. Just put a lemon half in about a half cup of water and a tbsp of baking soda and microwave it for about 30 seconds. Take it out of the microwave. Use the lemon dipped in the water to scrub the inside of the oven. Works and smells great!

    I find being organized helps you create less mess in the first place. Also, clean spills immediately. You might be in a hurry but if you leave it for later it just gets harder to clean

    For hardwood floors I just learned this trick. Steep 2 teabags in boiling water, add enough water to cool it down. Apply to floors with a cloth & wipe dry. Laborious but phenomenal outcome.

    I like to let the cleaner soak in for about 10 minutes before I bother to scrub with elbow grease sometimes the cleaner has acted like a flocculant and drawn out the stain making my job easier.

    Equal parts white vinegar and dish soap work wonders on bath tubs! Spray and leave for 1-2 hours (I leave mine for 45 minutes) then I wipe or rinse off :)
