Magic Eraser truly amazing

[Jersey Jim]

The admiral brought this home for me from the grocery store. I didn't ask her to but she heard me complaining yesterday about the tough black marks that spray nine and other cleaners would not remove, This eraser sponge only needs water and then squeezed out before using. It is very soft and doesn't appear abrasive in the least. It doesn't have any cleaner or soap in it either. I'm puzzled how it works. It removes black marks like magic. It also worked on marks that wouldn't come out with cleaners, on slightly textured semi-hard surfaces. Maybe someone has used these and can offer any pros or cons to their use? I just had to share it with the group. I did a search and saw 96TL had no luck with this product on pen marks on soft vinyl, but on hard smooth surfaces it's great. No buckets, rinsing, etc. It seems to desintegrate over uses, which I prefer over the boat giving up surface material.

SWMBO swears by these things for cleaning around the house - guess I'll have to try it!

I'm puzzled how it works.

Says right on the box, it's Magic.

Yes they do work great on most any surface.

Thanks for that information. I'll try it on my hard to remove marks on my deck this afternoon! If it will magically remove them without having to scrub...I'm all about it.

The Magic Eraser didn't take the pen marks off my vinyl, but it did make the rest of it look brand new!

I doubt it will work on non-skid surfaces. I use Comet with a stiff-bristle brush for that. It seems to be self-sacrificing, so a non-skid deck will probably tear up the sponge prematurely. It removes just about anything from smooth or semi-smooth surfaces though. Be sure to get the one without the dual surface scouring pad, but the soft sponge version.

I have used this product and while magic, it does leave minute scratches on shiney surfaces. I do not use it on smooth gel-coat anymore.

I used it last night on my non skid on the roof and cockpit. Had a few red spots that simple green and alot of scrubbing would budge. Gone now. Keeping them in the cabin to clean up and around electronics so i dont have to splash water around

I have used Magic Eraser on my non skid and inside on the cabin floor with magical results.
I've also used Clorox Soft Scrub and a bristle brush. Both seem to work equally well.

If using Soft Scrub, apply it and scrub... then let it sit for awhile before rinsing or wiping up.
It gives the bleach in it a chance to do its thing. :wink:
