Gojo is my {go-to} cleaner for tough stains
and shoe skid marks on the floor.
GOJO FOR FLOOR CLEANUP. Bathroom
These skid marks left on the bathroom floor …
GOJO spread on the shoe skid marks.
This heavy black mark looks like it will be the toughest to erase.
... have been on the floor bugging me ever
since Plummer Bob was here in March to remove the old noisy toilet and replace it
with a quieter, more up-to-date model (https://jeastofeden.blogspot.com/2019/03/yesterday-was-very-busy-day-here-house.html), but with a steady stream of construction workers in and out of
the house, all around the house inside & out – without a set schedule – I
have not been able to get to a.n.y.t.h.i.n.g. for actual clean-up until today. I got on it as soon as my eyes
opened, before the day could get away from me ;-)
I spread the Gojo on the skid marks with an
old toothbrush I keep around for jobs like this one; left it on the floor for
about an hour and a half to give it time to go to work; then I grabbed a
scrubber and some paper towels and got busy erasing them :-D
CLEAN!
Toughest skid mark erased (YAY!)
Liking to see the floor without the ugly black skid marks, I thought I
would tackle the shower too – last time that was done was in July 2018; before the Grim Reaper paid us a visit and home repairs waylaid me: so glad
I can get back to cleaning my house again!
I will mop all the floors Thursday when the weather is favorable to open the windows ;-)
I opened the window a bit because all the fumes were starting to wreck havoc on my weak lungs.
After the shower was thoroughly scrubbed with cleaner and a scrubber - and hosed down - I saw that I am going to have to find something that will actually work on getting rid of the hard water stains.
And I needed to deep-clean Bob’s bath-brush
too because it looked pretty grubby with Widow’s Fog neglect; so I placed the
bath-brush as well as the foot scrubbing pumice chunk in a solution of bleach
and water to soak for a few hours …
While they were soaking, I finished up the
last of the colorful 12 ct. Preemie Octopus’ I have been working on:
That done, I rinsed off the bath-brush and
pumice and put them both back into the shower before I started Supper. I made ‘Peppers
& Steak’ from my Southern Living Cooking Light Recipe Book – I like the
strong flavors of the ginger and green peppers in this meal. I froze 2 servings
of it for future meals …
Peppers & Steak w- Basmati Rice: divided 3 ways w-leftover. rice for later.
I added cubed Yellow Squash to the Ready-Made Pepper & Steak freezer meals.
Here is the recipe – the recipe is an 2 step,
2 day prep meal:
PEPPERS & STEAK Recipe ~ Makes 8 servings

1 (2 oz) jar diced Pimentos, drained (opt.)
