    Mrs R, you have inspired me to have a quick clean of the kitchen - kettle and toaster included......

    Beanie, I will look in poundland for those cloths - thank you for the tip!

    I've not used cream cleaner for about 20 years, but I too may well add it to my trolley next time I am at Tesco!

  • Ah yes, cream cleaner is the way to go, a must have for the coming season in fact. It is fab on the rubbery bit of Converses, BTW. So v MSE.

    Thanks for that Mrs R, mine are a bit grubby!

    Amazingly I do use cream cleaner - have to say its the best thing for the bathroom, even better than stardrops, if I can be so bold!

    I am a Stardrops junkie too, but after reading this, I will invest in some cream cleaner. Off to investigate the Sarah Smith cloths and Maison Belle.... Thanks Mrs R, great tips!

    Since we are on a cleaning junket - does anyone know what works well on a really manky stainless steel cooker hood - mine is gross!
