This Cleaning Powder Was Invented in the 1880s. It Still Keeps My Kitchen Gear Looking New.

This mildly abrasive cleaner brightens metal, removes rust, and cleans all kinds of tough stains and gunk with help from a plant-derived acid. Just don’t use it on delicate surfaces..."

I will agree with its' cleaning power. It makes my tri-ply stainless
steel cookware look like the day I brought it home. It's not meant,
though to remove baked on food, just spiff up the cookware and remove
stains. (Why does macaroni leave its' 'shadow' in the bottom of a pot?)
Those little 'freckles' that accumulate around gas burners are banished
with a light scrubbing with a little sprinkle of this product as well.

It's a little harsh on my hands. I use Bon Ami for most things, but
I bring out the Barkeepers' Friend when I really want the oxalic acid.
Nothing abrasive should ever be used on porcelain. That includes oxalic acid, and even baking soda. When I ran cleaning crews, I told all the new people to never touch any type of cleanser, and that if I found anyone
using cleanser that they would be fired on the spot for "willful
destruction of company property."

None. They all knew that I was serious. I used to tell my long term >employees that they should tell new ones that there was good news and
bad news. The bad news was that Bryan is an asshole. The good news is
that he's fair. He's an asshole to everybody.
