COOKWARE CLEANER/POLISH 12 oz Can

This was a gamble, would this finally be the product to save my favorite pot that was ruined when scale(?) built up when used to boil well water on stove for months to provide humidity. I had tried everything, including steel wool, a host of cleaners, even contacted the manufacturer seeking a replacement for this discontinued pot (as I said, my favorite!). Yes, it required a lot of elbow grease and repeated scrubbing with a damp sponge, and multiple applications, but finally the pot is now back to the shiny stainless steel it always was. To be clear, NOTHING had literally scratched the surface, or made a beyond marginal improvement, despite the countless hours and methods, and soaking I had done previously.. As soon as I started to scrub with this, I could see it was actually removing the build up, revealing the shiny surface below. No more chalky, crusty build up that grossed me out every time I needed to boil water for spaghetti or potato's. I have since discovered this is a godsend in removing those nasty dark spots/streaks on the outside of the non-stick frying pans, and cleaning the bottoms so they do not leave marks on the glass stove top (for which this is also fabulous for and does NOT scratch the surface). I even used it on my gigantic white tupperware bowl (that I like for family popcorn, but that someone had "borrowed" and forgotten outside forever) that had a mottled, grey black, almost mold/mildew type stains all over it, bam, even that came clean, without damaging the shiny, outer, plastic surface. My only beef is there is no way to CLOSE the tin, and it is definitely starting to clump within the container, it bugs me they have not solved this issue with some sort of lid or closure... but if you have a favorite anything that has a stubborn stain(s) that nothing else has worked on, this is worth trying. I have yet to find ANYTHING it does not work on and has damaged nothing.

Five stars simply isn’t enough!!! Bar Keepers Friend is hands down the best cleaning product I've ever used! I've tried countless cleaners over the years, but nothing compares to this one. It works wonders on everything from stainless steel to porcelain, leaving surfaces spotless and gleaming like new. What really sets Bar Keepers Friend apart is its ability to tackle tough stains and grime with ease. I had some stubborn stains on my cookware and bathroom fixtures that no other cleaner could remove—until I tried this. The results were amazing! The formula is powerful yet gentle enough not to scratch or damage surfaces, making it perfect for everyday use. Whether you're dealing with burnt-on food, hard water stains, or just need a reliable cleaner, Bar Keepers Friend is the product you can count on. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for an effective, all-purpose cleaner. This is truly the best product, bar none!

This product is a lifesaver and I wish I knew about it sooner. We use this on our All-Clad plans almost daily. It brings them back to life. Seriously, it is great!!!! We will continue to repurchase.

After reading the reviews, I decided to give this cleaning product a try, and wow—it’s absolutely amazing! It’s like magic in a bottle. My stainless steel pots and pans are now practically back to their original shine, even removing stubborn burnt-on grime and grease. It does take a bit of elbow grease, but the results are totally worth it. I’ve never seen another product work like this; it really stands out and has made a big difference in my kitchen. Highly recommend adding this to your cleaning arsenal!

I worked on a much grimier fry pan than this one and it is pretty shiny now. I forgot to take a before and after for that one so I did this one which should provide some idea of how it works. I didn’t make a paste and let is sit like some do. I just sprinkle on pan and with a wet fabric scrubber I just worked on this while making toast. As you can see it still needs a little more work on the shiny side but it does a very good job that other things wouldn’t touch. This price could be better and wish it worked magically with just paste and a wipe but the end result is as expected. I had some other brand years ago that did the same thing but was too fragrant but achieved these same results for more money so this isn't bad by comparison. I also just used one of those rough fabric scrubbers that doesn’t scratch.
