Q: Can this be used on white quartz countertops to remove stains?
submitted by AGarcia - 6 months ago
A: As quartz is usually sealed, then Bar Keeper's Friend Soft Cleanser would work. Use judiciously as it can dull the finish if used too aggressively. Always test on an inconspicuous area first. A better choice would be Bar Keeper’s Friend Granite & Stone Cleaner and Polish.

Q: Why does the Bar Keepers friend say that the 26 oz. size is $2.89 but when my husband and I looked and it appeared that the size was reduced to 11 oz.
submitted by Kim - 2 years ago
A: I am seeing this too. It’s a little misleading. Just give us the size bottle and a price and we can decide. We thankyou
submitted byBiddenford electric throw - 2 years ago
A: $2.89 per oz for a 26oz bottle is $75.14. That can’t be right. 11oz is $31.79 which is really expensive. Something is wrong.
submitted byCathyK - 2 years ago
A: The size of the Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser is 26oz (Bar Keepers Friend doesn’t make an 11oz size of the liquid cleanser). The notification next to the price ($2.89) is the price per ounce ($0.11/ fluid ounce).

Q: Will this clean silver?
submitted by LL - 2 months ago
A: No, it is not recommended to use Bar Keeper's Friend Soft Cleanser to clean precious metals like gold or silver, as the metal is too soft and will scratch. It is recommended to use a specific silver polish cleaner. If Bar Keeper's Friend Soft Cleanser is used on silver-plated items, test in an inconspicuous area first, as too much pressure or cleaning can cut through thinner layers of silver plating.

This is one of my favorite all purpose cleaners - I use it regularly (and the powder cleaner as well) to clean my sink and scrub stains gently off my counter and dishes. I use this one for the gentle stuff (like nice pottery) and the powder for stronger cleaning like my sink typically, but really they both work great for either and I haven't found it to be too harsh for anything yet, I just add water and gently scrub with a sponge or cloth. It also works great for rust and cooking sheet pans. It is a great value and the bottle lasts me a while even with regular use.

removed hard water spots
it took the hard water spots off my shower door like a champ. I lost some skin off my hands in the process, so next time I know to wear gloves. 😂 Ive tried a lot of different thing on my shower door with minimal results. This will definitely be my only go to from now on.
