Thanking parnass for suggesting changing the title of the thread from "Cleaning Gadgets" to what it is now.

I just saw a post on a Tide Stain Pen, and thought it would be cool to start a thread on stuff like this.

I just bought The Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.

It is pretty cool.* Just wet it and it removes all kinds of gunk, even stains or drywall and grout.
I think it is just a sponge infused with a lot of surfactants.

Here is another gadget I picked up for the shower.* I am a sucker for buying it because it sucks.

It sprays cleaner all over your shower after you are done.* Maybe it would work better if I could remember to use it as often as I am suppose to.

Here is another from Mr. Clean.* The Mr. Clean AutoDry Carwash System.
http://www.homemadesimple.com/en_US/mrclean/home.doWhat can I say, it works.* There is still some hard water spots, but not nearly as much as before.* Cuts the time to of washing to about 30 minutes.

Anybody else want to share?

This thing is great. It works on most everything, from walls to shoes.

I misinterpreted the subject as "how do you clean gadgets," though it appears you mean "gadgets that clean."

An ultrasonic cleaner is an electronic gadget which can clean other gadgets. :)

I use an ultrasonic cleaner to clean small pocket knives, parts, coins, and jewelry. It is especially effective for cleaning valuables I find when metal detecting.

Good point.* Let's change it. :highfive:
By the way many of your gadgets that are plastic, steel, or titanium can be cleaned with Windex. Windex is very mild and won't mess up plastics and anodizing. Just some solid advice from your Uncle DH.

I've used Windex on plastic lots of times, but never considered it for use on anodized items. Great tip.

The Scooba price has been cut by $100, so I picked one up yesterday (using a 20% off coupon.)

Also, the CR Spotless (http://crspotless.com/) is another cleaning/washing gadget - this gets used on the cars, because of hard water.* It really works, especially on red and black cars!
