Have you seen the Pink Stuff on the networks? It is a pot containing a pink paste that could miraculously erase the most stubborn traces. We tested it and here is what we thought about it.
If you are used to surfing social networks, you have certainly heard of this pot containing a pink cleaning product. Many videos are circulating, we see internet users eliminating the traces of felt -tip pens on the walls, bringing the very brown back of a pan or a dish of the oven. And each time, it’s stunning, because they seem like new, almost effortless.
Obviously, this attracts curiosity and we feel the desire to have this miracle cleaner with the dream name of “The Miracle Cleansing Paste”. This formula is also presented as containing 100% natural ingredients including sodium bicarbonate. In short, she has everything to seduce us on paper. We tested it in real life in three different cases and this is the result.
The back of my pan was really very brown, so I followed the advice of the instructions, I wet the utensil, I removed pink dough and rubbed with a slightly damp sponge. It is true that I saw traces leaving, but I had a lot, rub a lot. I expected it to be easier. Besides, I even used a scroll spiral in order to withdraw as much as possible. In addition, if 80% of brands have disappeared, there are still a bit.
Second scenario: traces of felts and paintings on a wooden furniture. On the dry surface of the latter, I applied the dough directly in the footsteps and rubbed with the classic (a little humid) sponge then, with the other more striking part. There, I was really amazed. Quickly, the spots diminished before disappearing completely. Yes, I still had a lot of use of elbow oil, but I had never managed to remove these marks and there, the wood had become again like new.
Finally, I dropped the product directly on the plates and on the sink in a thick layer, then I made circular movements with the sponge, always humid. This time, everything left quickly. Some passages were enough and all effortless. I found it really stunning. On the other hand, I had rinsed the product which must contain powder, because a deposit was formed while drying. This is why do not hesitate to rinse with large waters to remove everything.
In conclusion, there is good and less good. Yes, it is convincing, but it requires active participation on our part (rubbing thoroughly) for most cases. On the other hand, it is very economical, because the pot is generous (850g) for less than 6 euros. And even if you sometimes need to put it in a thick layer, the pasty texture plunges with water and densifies. Therefore, we use less than with another product.
