    Default Mr. Clean Magic Eraser

    Mr. Clean Magic Eraser

    This is the best product ever made - IMHO!!! I used it to clean the part of my liner that is above the water line. It had gotten grey and quite dirty over time and I have not found anything that cleans it. I had tried just water and a scrub brush with lots of elbow grease with no luck. I had tried the scrub brush with baking soda with no luck. I even put on a pair of goggles and tried the scrub brush with bleach - no impact. BUT...

    this product with out much work took years of grey dirt off with no elbow grease at all. The pool looks almost new now. I did about 80 linear feet about 6-8" wide today with just one pad. They could easily sell this stuff in pool stores under another name for big bucks with the results it gives.

    I definately agree with your assessment, it is the only thing i will use during
    spring cleanup now!! although I wouldn't want it in the pool store cause they would quadruple the price! HA!

    Would this work on the walls of a plaster or gunite pool??

    Please say yes.

    Don't see why not, but the rough gunite mite shread it quite quickly. They are designed to clean stains off of drywall in your house, so it should work on any surface.

    They make a special eraser for plaster pools. I have had one for some time and it works pretty well even on rust stains.

    There is a caution on the Mr. Clean website not to use the Magic Eraser with chlorine bleach. The MSDS
    http://www.pgbrands.com/pages/cleane...UK0DQFIAJ1E2UQ lists the indgredient it is made from as Formaldehyde-Melamine-Sodium Bisulfite Copolymer.
    Not sure what this might do in a pool. It also says to keep it away from oxidizing materials (such as chlorine?)

    Also this link has some intersting info on how it works...seems it is simply an abrasive and can actually scratch surfaces.

    Just for your info.

    Any idea as to what it is called? Where I can get it?

    Leslie's Pools has a brick (looks like a gray brick) but it hasn't been helpful.
