So a good work around is to first test The Pink Stuff on a discrete corner of what you are cleaning just to check that it doesn’t cause any problems. The fact that you can use it on multiple surfaces also means you won't need to invest in as many different products.

The Pink Stuff carries a warning on the pot saying not to use on plastic or acrylic surfaces, however I would add I have used it on a uPVC door to get rid of scuff marks and it’s been great. We also heated up milk and sugar to stain a hob and then allowed milk to burn in a dish for further staining. Stardrops claims it's ideal for removing rust and discolouration from metal surfaces and banishing stubborn marks from hard surfaces. To this end, I set out to compare the two in a cleaning duel to determine whether bicarb is just as effective as The Pink Stuff.I've lived in my current apartment for nearly three years, and I'm ashamed to admit that I've never once cleaned the inside of my oven. It could very well be made of materials you can find in nature, but the term ‘natural’ only conveys emotion, no meaningful, scientific, standardized definition of the properties of the contents,” Dickerson says.

Because the cream is mildly abrasive, it does a lot of the hard work for you when it comes to getting rid of grease, burnt on food and grime.It should come as no surprise then, that a “miracle cleaning paste” from Stardrops, is making waves in the online cleaning community.
