So, I recently got my first house and I was super pumped! Finally, my family and I moved out of our tiny one-bedroom apartment into this sweet 1,600 square-foot place. Though it is a little bit of a fixer upper the guts are all really solid and it has some cute parts as well.
But a few weeks in, reality hit me. No more cozy apartment vibes – now I had a full house to get and keep clean. Trust me, cleaning a house is a whole different ball game.
We didn’t have the cash to fully fix up our new place, and the last owner lived there for like 30 years so me and my hubby had a ton of work to do.
I hit up Walmart and grabbed a bunch of cleaning stuff: sprays, steel wool, blue sponges, you name it. But even with all that gear, some spots just wouldn’t come clean.
The oven was covered in grease, the tile floors had some grout that wouldn’t come out, the sinks were covered in soap scum and the bathroom? Don’t even get me started.
The amount of soap scum in there was truly horrifying. When I was looking at the house I was imagining what it could be, I had no idea how hard it would be to get it to that vision. Just look at it:
I scrubbed the soap scum in the bathrooms and sinks so hard I thought my arms were going to fall off, but it still looked nasty!
Between the soap scum, oven, the grout in the bathrooms and restoring the counters and stovetops to their former glory, I was feeling defeated.
So much so that I decided to get professional help. Even though I couldn’t really afford it I also didn’t want to live in filth so I whipped out the credit card and begrudgingly paid $450 for professional cleaners.
Pretty insane pricing but what else could we do? Live in filth?
A cleaning lady showed up that Wednesday and I told her to start with the bathrooms, where she promptly began spraying the scum covered floor with some weird bottle.
I didn’t think much of it and walked away.
I passed by about 10 minutes later and saw her gently wiping down the floor, I laughed to myself knowing that would never work – I almost broke my arm trying to wipe it so hard yesterday.
But to my shock, when I looked a little closer, the soap scum was wiping off easier than water!
I was shocked.
“How in the heck are you doing that?!” I asked
She chuckled and said “I might be putting myself out of a job, but it’s called Splashfoam Spray.”
It’s an incredibly powerful, but natural cleaning solution that works for pretty much all surfaces.
Glass, tiles, polished wood, pots, pans, stovetops, you name it – Splash Spray can clean it.
“Could I have just gotten Splash Spray and just saved myself $450?” I thought to myself. I might have made an expensive mistake here.
By the time she was finished, I was sure that I could have done it myself, all she did was spray and wipe and look at how effective it was!
Does it really work that well? What is it exactly?
Splash Spray is an all purpose spray that will break down dirt, grease, mold and pretty much anything you can think of off surfaces. That means range hoods, toilet floor stains, polished wooden tables, granite, etc!
The reason it works so well is because we actually send you tablets and a spray bottle so when you get the tablets all you need to do is add water and a tablet to the bottle and it’s ready to go!
Because it’s being synthesized on the spot it’s more effective than other cleaners because the surfactant suds its making are more fresh, versus something like a windex bottle that’s been sitting for months before it gets sold.
It’s designed for heavy duty cleaning, with eco-friendly and nontoxic ingredients that are guaranteed not to harm your animals or your skin (though they do recommend using gloves anyway because your hands can get dry as the spray cuts through grease).
There are no fluorescent agents in this heavy duty yet safe formula, and the biological agents use only natural enzymes to dissolve stains.
My Own Experience
Seeing this cleaning lady use it I thought there might be some special trick to it so I decided to try it myself on a few of the dirtiest places in our new home.
I sprayed them with the Splash Spray, let it sit for about 2 minutes and began to wipe down.
And I kid you not when I say this was one of the most satisfying cleans of my life.
Years of grease and gunk was wiping off like it was water!
Just check out these before and after photos…
And the tile grout cleaned up just as easy!
It was working so well it inspired me to try it a few other places, like:
