I find Cillit Bang works well on that sort of stuff. However, don't
pay whatever outrageous price they charge for the real stuff. Your
local pound shop will have "Sonic Boom" which as far as I can tell is
exactly the same stuff for £1.


I wonder who the guy is that comes up with these strange names for
cleaning products - and if he has any children, I wonder what he
called them??


The Yanks are the best at this sort of thing. Used to deal with Butcher
Polish in the USA.

Floor cleaners included Hot Springs & Sundance, floor polish
strippers/removers called Jackhammer and Crowbar, polish called High Noon,
Iron Stone & Lightspeed, spray cleaners called Overdrive.

All the Yank chemical companies are the same.
