Powder Cleanser is it safe to use? How about on a porcelain sink? Or is the abrasive powder going to scratch it? Boss man says to use a scrub brush and a few shakes of cleanser. Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru says company approved cleaning products are a sure bet. The company will stand behind the products they suggest. Any powder cleanser like Comet, Ajax, Bon-Ami and Bar Keepers Friend are safe to use for a ceramic sink. And we use them on fiberglass and stainless-steel too because of their scrubbing power. You can make a cleaning paste with powder cleanser and a bit of water. Let sit a few minutes and scrub with a non-scratch scrub sponge. Today's #AskaHouseCleaner sponsor is Savvy Cleaner.

Watch this before you buy a cleaning car. Angela Brown says your #cleaning car is a reflection of your company, your image and company branding. I'm asked a lot "What car should I drive for my maid service?" It comes down to the type of car payment you can afford and the psychology of selling. Look at the car’s maids drive and then don't compete with your client’s vehicle or SUV. A car for house cleaning should be clean. The #CleaningCar is part of your company image. So, invest in an unlimited car wash or auto car wash package. Today's #AskaHouseCleaner sponsor is Savvy Cleaner Training for house cleaners and maids.
