Mr.Clean Magic Eraser ***RAVE***

Thank you for the review!

Has anyone tried it on ceilings? Our house has gross ceilings, previous owners must have been smokers (the house is 47 or 48 years old, so that makes for a LOT of smokers... lol). It'd probably break my back to try scrubbing at the ceiling with an eraser, but the ceilings are just gross.

You don't have to scrub with them. You just wipe. I had soap scum in the tub that I'd scrubbed and scrubbed and couldn't get off. I decided to try ti eraser, and I literally just wiped it, and it was gone! Gone! It's magic! I've used it all over the house. Our fridge was here when we moved in, it's over 10 years old. The handle was GROSS. I've scrubbed and scrubbed and couldn't get it clean. A little wipe with the eraser, and it was perfectly clean. I love that thing.

Yep, there is no scrubbing needed. Although, a whole ceiling might take a while because the erasers are pretty small for such a big surface.

I had that soap scum in the tub that wouldn't come off too, and the eraser just wiped it off like it was nothing!!

For your ceilings, you may have to wash them with a mixture of TSP and hot water, seal with Kilz and then repaint.

I agree, they are awesome. I have even gotten magic marker off of things with it... and a giant black scuff mark off of my tea green walls in my bedroom. Compliments of my husband tossing me the broom and hitting the wall. It worked so well it almost started to take the paint off of the walls!

I co-oped with P&G and got a pack of these free at a convention I went to...and I'm soooo happy I did! I never would have bought it on my own...but I now recommend them to anyone who will listen, lol.

Wow! I'm gonna have to try this.

I work as a housekeeper and have bought them and absolutely love them as well, they work for everything!

Do you think they would work on My Little Ponies? I have several white and light coloured ponies that I stupidly took out of the box, and they are yellowing. I would hate to destroy my ponies by cleaning them with something that would take their symbols off.

Yes I love them!! They are my complete cleaning tool.....its funny how well they clean EVERYTHING!!

Oh the Magic Eraser is Marrrrrvlous, now all they need to do is make one big enough to put on the mop like a swifter flat bottom I would be in heaven, do you know that it will actually take scuffs off the walls like if you scraped it Not down to the outside of the house but pretty bad scuffs like when DH throws the dogs colored toys it comes off. I have used it for a long time,
Now I think I'll go e-mail Mr Clean to see if they have thought about making one for the floor, I have a pretty big Kitchen floor Not going to do it with that small one. I stuck it on the bottom of the mop and it took all the dirt out of the little swirls I need a bigen..

YES- YES - we have them here in Spain and they are just brill - my cleaning life is complete

They are called Don Limpio.........................the same - Mr Clean

I've been considering getting the magic eraser, just to see it work, but lately I've been getting kind of anal about how dirty my old childhood horses are (especially one in particular, nothing has worked on getting scuff marks off her). One of these days, maybe for Christmas, I'll get a pack and see if they'll work on my toys. I'll start with the least favorites just in case they end up looking worse than before, lol

Well, I bought a 2-pack today, just to see how it works, and I've created a demonstration (pictures) involving my childhood horsies. I haven't uploaded the pics yet, but I will later.

In short, it DOES work, though not like you'd expect after reading these types of threads, lol (you still have to scrub, not simple wiping, lol). I had some VERY good models, including two big horses who were splattered with house paint several years ago, and I managed to get the paint off (the white horse was splattered worse than the chestnut, so I scrubbed hard until my hands and back hurt, but there's just one HUGE splotch left that I'll continue on later). To answer the very important question on whether or not the magic erasers are harmful to treasured childhood toys: it depends on the toy.

Here are some of the best shots:

After: (those spots on his side are from the paint flaking, which isn't related to the magic eraser: his legs have been a flaking mess for as long as I've had him, lol)


Before: (this Brumby cannot be used with the magic eraser, the paint started to really come off and I had to stop right away)


After: (*sigh* My poor, balding baby...)


Before: (my favorite, a mustang I named Amy)


Before: (butt shot)

I've been using them for a couple of years - they are amazing!

Our apartment is about 50 years old and our old tub and sinks no longer have the protective glaze. I scrubbed and scrubbed trying to get the dingy stains off to no avail. I bought the magic erasers and now I just wipe my tub down and its sparking white.

I will say that I still have an issue with heavy rust stains. It lifts part of it, but not the entire thing.

Try a little lime away ... It comes in a spray or in a squeeze type bottle
