Nope, it has some kind of bleaching agent I noticed when I cleaned DDs grout. Nope, it absolutely, positively does not, unless you are using some generic ME knockoff (which I cannot comment on). The actual [trademarked] Magic Eraser has no soap and no bleaching agents in it. What you are describing is simply coloration from water with melamine residue mixed in, but this is just temporary and will rinse off easily. Melamine foam has been in manufacture for decades, and was most commonly used as an insulation, often for pipes. It was only in the last decade or so that someone found out quite accidentally that this same cellular structure lent itself well to also being a mild abrasive. And that's its thing: it's an abrasive. Nothing more.

@cmama: This conversation is becoming a hot topic. Would you mind bringing to the groups attention more information regarding the type of film as well as type of window? Please allow me to clarify a few things. You did mention it was a "film" you were wanting to remove so I am guessing here, without actually being present to examine the glass, that the "film" is something that happened from the environment or the result of poorly maintained windows, which is the most common. When you mentioned that it was a "film" you are wanting to "remove" I am gathering that it is not a manufactured film application to the glass such as a Low-e coating or a tint. The sponge would be safe to use for removing a film from your standard glass windows. Again, based off of what you mentioned I'm just assuming your windows are standard old pane glass windows. I do not think #0000 grade steel wool or a razor blade would be necessary to remove a "film" but if you have "tried everything" - which is highly unlikely, an attempt using a using a razor blade might help but I would hire a pro window cleaner to do this service for you, which is what I should have suggested in the first place. The window cleaning service staff should be able to determine what type of film it is as well as what type of windows you have installed. Wish I could be more helpful to you but I don't have enough details. You aren't really describing the "film" or "window" so it makes it more difficult to offer any permanent resolutions here per your situation. This conversation can go on and on without having more details to find a resolution for you, but as I said, magic erasers can clean stubborn areas from off glass. Most "films" can be removed using a brand new magic eraser with warm wet water and a cleaning detergent. Just make certain the sponge is kept wet and maintained. Rinse well! Do not allow any trapping of particles inside the sponge. When tearing begins, discard immediately. These sponges are short lived and aren't designed to be used multiple times. We keep a stock order of them so we only use new all the time. It may seem like common sense but I have had to physically stop people, especially house cleaners, from using common household items such as cleaning cloths, sponges and other types of materials because they failed to maintain the cloths or sponges during the duration of the cleaning. Hard abrasive particles can be trapped in most sponges and cleaning cloths. If overlooked, you can easily scratch the surfaces unknowingly. Also, I never recommend using magic erasers dry on glass. Glass should always be kept wet while cleaning or removing deposits and stains. You wouldn't think it , but the rings worn on fingers while cleaning windows cause many scratches. Same goes for watches. @ jannie: It's only as abrasive as the user behind it and the sources within it. Be careful using ammonia on windows that actually have manufactured films applied to the surface of the glass. You will strip it. This often leaves a film looking appearance in direct sunlight. What has actually happened is the ammonia stripped the coating from off the glass. Aways do your research on window types before using strippers such as ammonia. @Simpo Cleaning: Did you mean to say #0000 grade steel wool? I think you also mean to say heat strengthened (i.e.) tempered glass. As a fellow PRO WC'er, you should be informed about (Fabricating Debris) on heat strengthened / tempered glass vs. using a razor blade or any type of steel. Not that it is less important for removing various types of window film but I would certainly be careful in being suggestive to social media about using razor blades on their windows without first having all the information. There are just too many issues with inherent fabricating debris and razor blades. I read your linked article. It was very nice. @kath1966: We are discussing magic erasers being used on window glass, not glass stove tops. Not all glass surfaces are created equally. *Customer comments should be kept refined so as to not allow misinformation and confusion of topic. @lazy_gardens: Are you referring to a restroom window or a shower glass partition i.e. divider? @lindac92: We are discussing magic erasers being used on window glass only, not stoves. Magic erasers, just as they are, do not scratch glass. Perhaps you had trapped some particles in the lining of the sponge that may have scratched the glass? As a suggestion, keep your sponge completely rinsed and maintained. If you notice lodging of particles in the sponge, rinse thoroughly or discard immediately. Again, I don't know what substance you were using the sponge on for removal or what type of window glass you have. *Customer comments should be kept refined so as to not allow misinformation and confusion of topic.

Maybe I'm afraid of nothing regarding my faucets, LOL. Update on the middle ear - I had this for over six months, went to one MD who gave me antibiotics, despite me insisting that I did not have an infection. No change. Went to a second MD who told me to try antihistamines. I tried and they helped but didn't get rid of the ailment. And I don't like to take stuff like that on a regular basis. Then finally went to an ENT who prescribed steroidal nasal spray and told me I needed to use it for three months. Um, no. I don't think so but thanks anyway. Gak. Steroids have too many known side effects and rebound effects. Meanwhile I read that it takes a while to go away on its own. I've never tried any nasal sprays in my life, but in researching online I decided to try saline spray. I got it on Monday. After twice a day spraying with holding the saline solution in my sinuses with my head laid towards my affected ear, the plugged up ear is almost totally fixed! After all that frustration and useless medical establishment. I believe the swollen eustachian tube was a result of allergies, exacerbated by living in the middle of a remodel, which is also finished now. I cleaned most of the dust from every room. I have just one room full of boxes left to do, and I am doing it slowly to make sure I don't kick up and breathe the dust. Spring allergens are in force right now also, so maybe your friends' allergies are kicking up too. I got Arm and Hammer saline nasal spray from Amazon.

You can purchase on Amazon, search for "Bostik adhesive remover wipes" The other alternative that we use on site would be mineral spirits. You must follow up with a damp cloth after using mineral spirits. If you do not clean up with a damp cloth, which will leave the mineral spirits on the surface of your floor, it can tarnish your finish/create a bad haze that can not be removed.
