So today we will explore still more Things you can clean around the house with a magic eraser. But before we get to that, I thought it would be helpful to share a few quick tips about using Magic Eraser in general. These tips will help you even if you clean up with your magic eraser! 🙂
My top 3 tips for using a magic eraser
- Cut them into small pieces. Magic erasers wear out with each use, so cutting them into pieces is a great way to make each eraser last as long as possible. I cut each Magic Eraser into at least four pieces, but occasionally as many as eight depending on what I’m cleaning!
- Always add water. You should always wet a magic eraser before using it. They are not meant to be used dry!
- wear gloves The Magic Eraser works like superfine sandpaper to remove gunk and grime. But it can also take a toll on your hands if you’re not careful! So it is always a good idea to wear cleaning gloves when cleaning with a magic eraser.
