tubs, marks off vinyl fl ooring, or that permanent ink that mysteriously may get on the kitchen
counter! It will take rust out of stainless steel sinks and off plastic dishwasher walls, and even remove
permanent ink off white board. It is fantastic for those “normal” cleaning jobs such as getting the soap
scum out of your tub or shower.
Considering you need to use so little…one container of Cleaning Paste really goes a long way! It is
nice to use a cleaning product that is not a liquid (eliminating possibility of inhaling while using) – just
a damp Envirocloth, a small dab of paste, and you’re good to go!
How does this amazing product work? It contains some soaps and a very small amount of sodium
laureth sulphate combined with marble fl our and chalk (calcium carbonate) which result in a very
slightly abrasive product that has the ability to also remove grease. The majority of the work is simply
the result of very mild abrasion – similar to the Micro Pad. The paste basically functions like ultrasuperfi
ne sandpaper, with a bit of soap added to it.
CAUTION: Since the Cleaning Paste is mildly abrasive, always test in an inconspicuous spot before
using. Not recommended for use on acrylic surfaces, brushed stainless steel, the new enameled or
ceramic stovetops or other delicate surfaces. The Cleaning Paste is a physical scrubber and is not
intended to be an everyday use product; it is intended only for stains and marks that do NOT come off
with regular soap and water or the Enviro and water!
