It’s been a while since I’ve done Tip Tuesday-here’s one that could save you if you’re not one to read product labels.
✨Barkeeper’s Friend is an amazing product, but super powerful definitely not safe to just use w***y nilly on any surface you feel like. It can and will easily strip and damage surfaces and finishes if not used properly as its main ingredient is acid (oxallic).
✨Never use this on: granite, natural stone, travertine, matte black finishes, black stainless steel, pebble tile or river rock shower floors, and cast iron or nonstick pans. I’ve included pics of damaged surfaces (stone shower, black sink) to show how easily it will ruin a surface or finish.
✨Safe for only hard, non porous surfaces like stainless steel, ceramic, and porcelain.
✨ Please be wary of the crazy cleaning videos you may see online, and read your labels before use on all products-or make sure your cleaning lady reads hers 😉 while it has its uses, I don’t even carry this product anymore. It not only can easily damage surfaces and finishes, but it’s so awful in your skin! Even though I wear gloves, the few times it hit my hands it was noticeable.
✨I have a biweekly spot open in my schedule. Text or call me Casey Elizabeth for info, booking, estimates. 570-468-7989
