Tackle It Tuesday
Tackle It Tuesday is having a CLR challenge this week. As much as I love products that take the work out of cleaning, I'm really off cleaners that make me dizzy and require ventilation (it's high of 40 today here). So instead of talking about CLR, I'd like to talk about Method Tub 'n Tile.
After emerging from our shower stall with my face red and eyes watering, and a hacking cough, once again, DeuceDad asked me why I use the bathroom cleaner I've been using for years. It works with hardly any scrubbing, which is a feature, but I think it was trying to kill me. So I gave that to my mom and bought the Method product.
I like it, but I can't say I love it. I have a fiberglass (or something similar) tub and shower surround, and I found that the Method Tub 'n Tile does a great job if I clean every week. Just spray it on and wipe right off with a sponge and everything was shiny fantastic. But I skipped one (two?) weeks of cleaning my tub, and I found that even with a little elbow grease, Method Tub 'n Tile wasn't getting all the soap scum off, particularly from the textured bottom of the tub. Next weekend I think I'll break out the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser (I'm hesitating to use a scrubber sponge on the new tub. Damn manufacturer's instructions throwing a wrench in my works).
The scent of Method Tub 'n Tile is really great - Eucalyptus Mint - and doesn't make my head spin at all. And after rinsing the tub well I have no reservations about putting Deuce right in there.
So it's a mixed review for Method Tub 'n Tile.
Cleaning heavy dirty: B
Scent: A+
Environmental/Deuce-friendliness: A+

In my experience nothing - NOTHING - works like the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. We bought an extra refrigerator for the garage and it was just ewwwww. The MCME cleaned it right up. Or so I'm told because I refused to go near it and made DH do it, throwing him fresh MCMEs from the doorway.
never heard of it! great review!
Great tackle and a great review:-)I had never heard of it either:-)
I love Method cleaners. Smell good and I agree with you about the fumes of CLR - does not sound good!
