Using the wrong cleaner is one of the most common reasons surfaces look dull, streaky or damaged. A simple rule of thumb is to match the product to both the surface and the type of soil.
Start with the soil
Grease and oil respond best to alkaline degreasers. Limescale and soap scum need an acidic descaler. Everyday dust and light soil can usually be handled with a neutral all-purpose cleaner.
Check the surface
Natural stone, polished metal and sealed wood can all be damaged by strong acids or alkalis. Always read the label and test in a small, hidden area first.
Follow the label
Use the recommended dilution and contact time, and never mix different chemicals together. If you are unsure which product suits your site, contact our team for guidance.
