Holidays is the time for fun, presents, and sometimes houseguests too! Some of you already know that we have a running joke that our place is a hotel that is always booked. It is rare that we don’t have a guest at least once a month visiting. Sometimes for one night, sometimes for weeks and even months. Family, friends, friends of friends and even furry ones too.
Keeping the house clean and in tip-top shape is not my top 3 list of priorities but it might make it somewhere in the top 10. So I am always on the lookout for new ways to accomplish this easily, quickly and efficiently. I had the opportunity this year to try THREE new household items that have now become a staple. These include Dryel, Invisible Glass, and Mean Green. #housewifelife. I am also considering getting a weekly cleaning service to get that hotel feel at home!
This cleaner and degreaser provide the strength needed for your toughest cleaning tasks while remaining gentle enough for more sensitive items. The nontoxic, nonflammable formula helps ensure safe use.
- Tough detergents deliver heavy-duty cleaning power that’s safe for more sensitive surfaces and items. Formulated to clean grease and soil from clothes, upholstery, and carpets, as well as engines and construction equipment.

I appreciate how versatile this cleaner can be and it gets the kitchen spotless in no time. It doesn’t have the harsh scent that 407 has (that what I was using before this). You can use Mean Green from fabric to concrete!
