I Wanted My Kitchen to Shine for Thanksgiving — But I Hate Cleaning. Then My Neat-Freak Friend Told Me Her Secret Weapon

A warm tone marble island with a bright red faucet.

I mean, who can't think of a million things they'd rather be doing than making their kitchen shine for the Thanksgiving hosting season? Me, for one. Like any kitchen, though, mine constantly needs a wash, buff, and shine to banish the inevitable grease and grime that builds up after a long day of cooking.

So, I turned to a friend with an enviably (read: annoyingly) shiny kitchen. Even when I drop in unexpectedly, there it is: a squeaky clean kitchen. Apparently, there's little elbow grease (my favorite kind of grease) needed. She uses The Pink Stuff's Miracle Multi-Purpose Cleaner which you can buy from Amazon. And there was me expecting some kind of unheard of miracle product from an organic store.

She told me that it would effortlessly remove grease and grime with just a few sprays and a buffing with an e-cloth. I tried it, and it was a revelation. It costs just $7 a bottle, and it's now a permanent resident in my (small but perfectly formed) cleaning arsenal. Here's all you need to know.

This cleaner is formulated to tackle tough stains and grime, leaving surfaces shining — with minimal effort. It's also ideal for various surfaces, including countertops, stoves, tiles, sinks, and more. All you need to do is simply spray the product and wipe it down for instant satisfaction.

I'm not the only convert in team Livingetc's: our Content Director for Audience, Lucy Searle, has been using it for years (now she tells me).

"I keep a bottle of this in my cleaning kit at all times because it's so useful for some of those tougher jobs, and jobs where you need to be gentle," Lucy told me. "I use it to remove stains on ceramic and acrylic bathroom and kitchen fittings."

Lucy says the product can bring back shine to dull spots around the home and areas where paint marks may have reached. She notes: "It's amazing for shining up dulled chrome faucets. It can easily remove marks from paintwork, and I've even used it carefully and sprayed onto an E-Cloth Microfiber Cloth at Amazon to remove scuffs from painted walls and wallpaper. I highly recommend it!"
