Keep Your Home & Work Areas Clean with Industrial & Specialty Cleaners

Whether you’re working outside or in your basement, garage, or workshop, spills and messes are inevitable. You’ll want a heavy-duty degreaser to break up and remove oil, grease, tar, soot, carbon, wax, and adhesives. Some degreasers also include a sanitizer for neutralizing bacteria. Lye (sodium hydroxide) is a great all-purpose cleaner and disinfectant but should not be used on aluminum, painted surfaces, or floor coverings. Cleaning vinegar offers a milder alternative and is effective for cleaning glass and mirrors and removing mildew, soap scum, and salt stains. Baking soda also has many home applications including removing pet stains and odours from carpets. You can also find biodegradable cleaners that can be used on all surfaces.

Some household items require specialty cleaners. Cutting board oil will prevent your butcher block, salad bowls, and wooden serving utensils from drying out and cracking. Shoe cleaners and leather protectors like mink oil will help waterproof and protect your footwear. You can also find compost accelerants and cleaners to help keep your composting toilet hygienic.
