Guide Review - Bayes Eco Friendly Stainless Steel Cleaner

Effectiveness:

This stainless steel cleaner truly delivers by doing exactly what it claims to do. Not only does it clean remarkably and leave your stainless steel appliances, fixtures and sinks gleaming like new, it's non-toxic and smells great too.

The only not so perfect aspect of this product (and the only reason it didn't receive 5 stars) is that after a surface has been cleaned and buffed, it needs up to an hour to dry. Immediately after cleaning, a thin oily layer is left on the stainless steel appliance or fixture, and it can be easily smudged. If, however, the surface is allowed to dry, this Bayes product will protect very well and leave your surfaces shining.

Green Factor:

You can't get much greener than bearing the U.S. EPA Design for the Environment label. Bayes has produced the first (and currently only) oil-based stainless steel cleaner that bears this significant label.

Additionally, Bayes Eco-Friendly Stainless Steel Cleaner is made in the U.S. and is long lasting, so you won't have to recycle the Type 1 Plastic (a commonly recyclable plastic) bottle for awhile.
