Removing Stains Around the House

by

I have to admit, I love this product. CLR (Calcium Lime Rust Remover) really does, in my experience, remove just about everything. Rust spot around the toilet, gone. Lime on the bathtub? Ditto. Here’s what they have to say about themselves:

CLR Calcium Lime Rust remover is the only patented lime and rust remover on the market today. See http://www.jelmar.com for the entire product line.

CLR Outdoor Furniture Cleaner can be used to safely clean grime, bird droppings, grease and food stains off of your lawn furniture without harming your surrounding lawn, shrubs, flowers or pets.

The use of a combination of the calcium lime rust remover and CLR Grease Magnet as well as a hard bristled brush will clean the rust and grease off of your grill grate. Once the grate is clean rinse the grate with your hose, return the grate to the grill, cover the grill with a waterproof cover and your grill will be ready for next season.

A pet peeve of most golfers is a dirty, rusty golf club. The calcium lime rust remover and a hard bristle brush will clean the clubs down to their original metal surface.

For home cleaning, the calcium lime rust remover can be used to clean hard water stains off the outside of your windows. Then before you put your screens back on the window, use a sponge dampened with the remover to clean your metal or fiberglass screens.

One of the most unsightly outdoor messes is an oil stain on a driveway. Pour Grease Magnet directly on your concrete, terrazzo, granite, stone or asphalt driveway, scrub, rinse with your hose and the stain will be gone.

    If you like CLR, you will LOVE Power One. Power One will do exactly as CLR but 200% more…Where CLR doesn’t work, Power One will. Also works great on hull of boats without the fumes or danger to your skin. You can get Power One in Canada, visit http://www.atinsco.com for retailers.
