Magic Eraser

Has anyone use those mr clean magic erasers, do they work and what for?
Thanks.
Also, I've been noticing that my waffle weave drying towels don't collect water as good as they used to. I don't know it I've been washing them wrong or I heard using heat when drying them in the dryer can mess them up. It seems they have to get pretty moist first before it will sucessfully work?
Thanks again.

Magic erasers...
I use them on white walls on tires, and viynl interior stuff, expect GM products because GM cuts corners and uses crap interior stuff. I also have used them on leather seats.. but it's not recomended.

I'm glad you said something about the GM interior,I did not know that. I'll give them a try.
Thanks

I was initially turned of by these erasers. I used one on the interior and it turned everything white. I needed to use a protectant (303) to remove it. Since then I have learned to wash them out thouroughly as they must contain some cleaner, and I use them with interior cleaner only when necessary to remove scuffs from door panels and kick plates from shoes.

APC is the way to go with the magic eraser.

Try using some DP Polishing Pad Rejuvenator, this stuff cleans micros really well.

just an fyi on the erasers

Hey, not sure if everybody heard but lowes carries generic magic erasers that were recently on sale. I picked up a few packs of them. you get 8 sponges for $2. have compared them side by side and they work just as well. they are in the cleaning supply section. for .25 cents each how could I go wrong

Magics are good for whitewalls and ahrd to remvoe marks. Be careful though, no clue as to what cleaner they have but they do have micro super tiny fiberglass particles in them.
