How to… Keep your shower screens free of watermarks
Ditch those expensive daily shower sprays, instead use a dry Marigold Let It Shine On & On! Microfibre Cloth after showering to quickly wipe away any water residue. These thick cloths are really absorbent and will keep your screens free of watermarks and limescale, using zero chemicals – kinder on your pocket and the planet too! Just hang to dry after use and wash once a week in the washing machine. And did you know that these cloths are also made from 100% recycled material – they’re made from plastic bottles.
If watermarks become an issue, pop on a pair of Marigold Longer Bathroom Gloves and pick up a Marigold Cleaning Me Softly Non Scratch Scourer. This scourer has a special scouring surface that’s tough on bathroom build up, yet gentle on taps and glass screens. Use with a small amount of natural cleaning paste or cream cleaner and move the scourer in circular motions to remove limescale and inground watermarking.
How to… Clean your grill pans with ease and without harsh chemicals
Add boiling water to the grill pan and a dash of washing up liquid and half a cup of white vinegar. Leave the pan to soak for 10 minutes, but make sure the water doesn’t go cold. Carefully pour away the water and you will be shocked to see how much grease and residue has been lifted with very little effort. Then, to banish the stubborn marks, I recommend using a Marigold Cleaning Me Softly Non Scratch Scourer – they’re so effective! These scourers will lift the stubborn mess with ease thanks to their special scouring surface, leaving your pans “Dazzling” clean!
The Extra Life Kitchen Gloves are perfect for these types of mucky jobs, keeping your hands and nails protected from all that grease. They are triple layered so very tough and durable for those intense cleaning jobs.
TOP TIP – when soaking the grill pan, turn the rack upside down and drop into the pan to soak at the same time. Lots of sinks aren’t big enough to accommodate these and this way it saves time!
How to… Get your bathroom taps sparkling
Limescale is a problem a lot of households are faced with. If you have a build-up of limescale around the base of your taps or the spout, you can soak one of your Marigold Let It Shine On & On! Microfibre Cloths in white vinegar and wrap it around the troubled area. Leave for around half an hour and wipe away. The white vinegar won’t harm your cloths either! Just throw into the washing machine with a little detergent after using. They wash brilliantly, coming up like new every time. These are also perfect for bathroom cleaning as you can assign a specific colour cloth for your bathroom, to avoid cross contamination – such as blue for your loo.
TOP TIP – Avoid using fabric softener on cloths as this will clog the fibres affecting their performance and absorbency.
Bonus Tips with Marigold
- If washing your Marigold Let It Shine On & On! Microfibre Cloths at a lower temperature to save energy, make sure you add some laundry cleanser or a drop of concentrated disinfectant to the cycle to ensure all bacteria is removed. Remember to avoid using fabric softener!
- Always use Marigold Longer Bathroom gloves for those nasty jobs like cleaning the loo or cleaning the shower plug, to keep your hands protected from both bacteria and grime.
