Aussie Mum Reveals Budget-Friendly ‘Holy Grail’ Cleaning Product: The Surprising Solution to Stained Fabric!
- Replies 9
Cleaning is a necessary chore that most of us dread. It's time-consuming, tiring, and often frustrating when our products don't seem to work as advertised.
With so many cleaning products on the market, it can be difficult to find the right one that actually does what it promises.
The truth is, finding a holy grail product for cleaning is no easy task. Despite the many options available, many cleaning products fail when delivering results.
Some products can even make things worse, leaving behind streaks, residue, or even damaging surfaces.
But an Aussie mum has recently shared an ingenious discovery that just might become that elusive holy grail - a surprisingly budget-friendly cleaner.
Sharing her discovery on the Mums Who Clean Facebook group, one mum raved about using Windex on a stubbornly stained armchair with incredible success.
The high-backed armchair was in a sorry state when the woman purchased it - stained and needing some urgent TLC (tender loving care).
However, the mum claimed all it took was a quick spritzing of Windex and natural light to bring the chair back to its former glory.
The savvy homemaker wrote: ‘I posted a while ago that I used Windex on an armchair and created quite the stir.’
'But it worked. My chair looked fantastic.'
Her post was met with enthusiastic approval from others, who agreed that all you need is a can of humble Windex, which can be picked up at the supermarket for $2.85.
One person shared: ‘Did a chemical/cleaning workshop years ago in aged care, and while talking about different cleaning products, we were told that if you could only ever have one ... make it Windex, as it will clean everything.’
'My friend uses Windex on her carpet for stains,' another added.
A third chimed in: ‘What a game-changer!’
Not only is the spray versatile for furniture cleaning, but it can also be used for various other purposes. For instance, a childcare worker shared her trick of using Windex to swiftly clean the soiled clothes of children just before their parents arrived for pick-up.
The worker shared: ‘If children got paint on their clothes, I’d change their clothes and spray the paint stains with Windex and rinse before the parents came, and the marks would be gone.’
‘Worked every time.’
But before you rush to the nearest store to purchase Windex, we suggest you read this article, in which a professional cleaner provides valuable insights on which cleaning products to steer clear of.
By doing so, you'll be able to decide whether investing in this product aligns with your long-term cleaning goals and is worth your money.
