    I have to admit, I hate Stardrops (the shame!) I find it far too bubbly (even when I use only a drop) and just not for me when it comes to cleaning kitchen, bathroom etc.

    I use flash all in one (yellow bottle for £1 lasts me months) to do the whole house. I've never heard of barkeeper's friend before!

    I'm a secret hater of StarDrops too.....I thought I was the only one but I just find I use gallons of water to get the suds off!

    But the damn bottle lasts forever and I can't get to the end of it!:rotfl:

    I've wondered if this would move the metal marks off my porcelain sink. Is it suitable for porcelain?

    Very much so. Has anyone tried it yet.

    Re Stardrops being too bubbly - I only use about two tablespoons of Stardrops in a whole spray bottle topped up with water. Everything seems to get clean but I don't have a bubble problem. Are some of you using too much maybe???

    Does it smell better, i.e. less chemically than Stardrops? Even when diluted, I almost choke on the chemical vapour it emits!

    soft water will make things bubble more - like shampoo so maybe stardrops is better for people with medium to hardwater. I hardly get any bubbles from mine with a good squirt in a bucket.
