Jean Myles on Apr 10, 2016If TSP doesn't work for me then I use Super Clean, it is a cleaner/ degreaser. I buy it in Walmart in the automotive dept. It comes in a purple gallon jug for about $17.00. way cheaper than pre mixed spray bottle. I think the ratio is like 1 part to 16 parts water. It also comes in a spray bottle pre mixed .I make up a spray bottle and if its a really greasy or dirty area I pour some straight on a rag and just wipe it on then leave it for a few minutes then wipe it off. I used this after being frustrated trying to clean dirty grout on a backsplash that had not been cleaned for 30 yrs. and it cleaned up really well. I found this great cleaner years ago when my husband used it to clean the engine of our cars. I think the only thing you cant clean with it is plastic. Good LuckHelpful Reply
