I have lots of home owners asking me what they should use to clean their Granite counter tops with.
There are lots of good safe neutral pH products out there but none are as easy to find as Trader Joe’s Cleanliness is Next to Godliness Multi-Purpose Cleaner. I think everyone in Santa Cruz must shop at TJ’s by now, so it’s easy to pick some up the next time your shopping for some cheap Merlot and fat free Hummus.
The benefits of a “Neutral pH” cleaner are twofold, for one it wont deplete the sealer in your stone or grout like acidic and alkaline cleaners do and second, it wont leave a residue on your shiny granite or marble floor to attract more dirt and finger prints.
Granted, gentle cleaners like this one can take a bit longer to loosen up extreme soil but you can speed things along buy heating up the bottle in your microwave to coffee temperature. (Please take the sprayer off before heating)
Give some a try and let us (and Joe) know what you think!
