Cleaning tips and tricks
that make less work for you and your
family.

Floors /
Carpet
-
Because it has a neutral pH, Simply
Safe Floor Cleaner can be used to
safely clean wood, laminate, marble,
stone, tile, bamboo, concrete,
composite and vinyl flooring (when
diluted properly).
-
Always mop floors with a DAMP mop
and not a wet one. Wring out all
excess water before mopping the
floor, especially on wood, laminate
or bamboo floors. Never allow water
to pool on a wood, laminate or
bamboo floor because water will seep
in between the slats of the flooring
(where there is no protective sealer
coating), causing the edges to warp
and curl.
-
If diluted properly, no rinsing is
required when using Simply Safe
Floor Cleaner.
-
Simply Safe Floor Cleaner is safe to
use around kids and pets.
-
Contrary to folk lore,
DO NOT use vinegar to clean floors
because over time, the acidity can
yellow or cloud certain floor
finishes.
-
Simply Safe Carpet Stain Remover is
safe to use around kids and pets.
-
For stained areas, apply the Simply
Safe Carpet Stain Remover directly
to the stain, and let sit for 1-2
minutes. Scrub lightly with a towel
or nylon brush, being careful not to
damage to carpet fibers.
-
Works great on pet stains, red wine,
greasy soils, and many other types
of stains.
-
When Simply Safe Carpet Stain
Remover is used correctly, no
rinsing is normally required. Just
vacuum dry carpet to restore knap.

Dishwasher
-
The Simply Safe Automatic Dishwasher
Gel DOES NOT contain phosphates,
silicates, or caustics.
-
The hazy build up on glassware comes
from the inorganic chemicals used in
other dishwasher detergents,
especially powders. They build up
over time.
Use Simply Safe Automatic
Dishwashing Gel to eliminate that
problem for good.
-
If you pre-rinse dishes before
placing in the dishwasher, fill the
lidded cup only.
-
If you do not pre-rinse dishes, fill
both the lidded cup AND the open
cup. The gel in the open cup will
spill down the inside of the door
and release into the pre-wash cycle
helping to insure a better wash.
-
Under normal wash conditions, a
rinse aid is not needed when using
Simply Safe (because it is already
built in).
-
If you have used traditional
dishwashing powders or liquids for a
long time, you may need to clean
your dishwasher with a Dishwasher
Cleaner prior to using Simply Safe
Automatic Dishwashing Gel.
Dishwasher Cleaners are usually
citric acid based and available at
most stores.
-
When washing delicate items like
copper, aluminum, gold-trimmed or
crystal, DO NOT use the Heat Boost
setting or heat-related damage may
result.
-
To save energy, use only the Normal
setting for washing dishes.

Bathroom
-
The Simply Safe Tub and Tile Cleaner
is safe to use on chrome, tile,
grout, marble, stone, fiberglass,
and glass. Just spray and wipe as
needed.
-
When used after the last shower each
day, the Simply Safe Daily Shower
Cleaner can cut back on shower
cleanings. It provides a detergent
barrier against soap scum or water
hardness build up on shower walls,
fixtures, etc.
-
The Simply Safe Toilet Bowl Cleaner
is only a mild acid compared to some
other brands. The best part is that
there are no toxic fumes. Just squirt the
product around the bowl rim, brush
and let sit for a few minutes before
flush rinsing.

Kitchen
-
For best results, use a micro-fiber
cloth for routine cleaning in the
kitchen. It works much better than a
paper towel, sponge or dishrag.
-
For unsealed surfaces like marble,
granite, concrete or other stone, it
is always best to spray the cleaner
onto the wiping cloth and NOT
directly on the surface. This will
minimize the chance for staining,
but always use care when cleaning an
unsealed surface.

Garage
-
Use Simply Safe All Purpose Cleaner
to clean up those greasy areas.
Great for cleaning tools and
removing greasy fingerprints from
cabinets and counters.
-
Use the Simply Safe Floor Cleaner to
help remove or lighten those oil
stains in the concrete floor. Unlike
indoor cleaning applications, it is
okay to let the diluted Simply Safe
Floor Cleaner soak the stained
concrete garage floor for 10-15
minutes before mopping up.

Patio
/ Outdoors
-
Use Simply Safe All Purpose Cleaner
to clean dirty patio furniture. Safe
to use on coated wicker, cedar,
vinyl, plastic, cast iron and
aluminum.
-
If using on an unsealed or unpainted
surface, always spray the Simply
Safe All Purpose Cleaner into the
towel or rag and then wipe. Do not
spray directly onto the surface and
always try an inconspicuous area
first.
-
The Simply Safe All Purpose Cleaner
works great on cleaning greasy
grills. Just spray and wipe (on cool
surfaces only!).
-
Use the Simply Safe Floor Cleaner to
safely clean stone, concrete and
brick patios.
-
The neutral pH of Simply Safe
cleaners will not alter the
surrounding soil pH or adversely
affect grass, flowers or plantings.
-
Clean window screens using the
Simply Safe All Purpose Cleaner.
Just remove the screen, spray on
cleaner, let sit for a couple of
minutes, and rinse off. If screens
are really dirty, a bit of scrubbing
may be necessary.

Laundry room
-
For tough spots on clothes, use a
little Simply Safe Laundry Detergent
2X directly on the spot before
adding to the wash. Remember, a
little goes a long way because it is
concentrated.
-
Simply Safe Laundry Detergent 2X is
safe enough to use on baby and kid
items (clothes, bibs, bedding,
towels), and pet materials (clothes,
towels, bedding), yet is
affordable to use everyday.
-
Simply Safe Laundry Detergent 2X has
a low sudsing formula that can be
used in BOTH traditional top load and
high efficiency (HE) washing
machines.
-
Simply Safe Laundry Detergent 2X is
very free-rinsing and leaves less
soap residue in clothes.
-
The Simply Safe Laundry Detergent 2X
drain back bottle is designed for
easy pouring with less mess. Once
the bottle gets down to empty, here
is a tip to get the last little bit
of soap out of the bottle. With the
bottle upright, grab the bottle
handle with one hand. With the
other, grab the pour spout and pull
up on it (it should pop right out).
The pour spout is removable. Once
removed, the remaining detergent
will be easy to pour out into the
measuring cup.
