Proper Procedure: Quicker and Cleaner

 

Plan first! Proper planning eliminates mistakes that can lead to a less clean, and slower result!

The first step of the plan should be ensuring you have brought an adequate chemical inventory required to execute efficiently.
For example, scrubbing an oven without metal cleaner will not only result in a poor cleaning, it will also leave a lackluster shine that could have otherwise been a new lustrous shine. In the kitchen alone there will be 4-5 different cleaning products needed for the best results. The second step in planning should be ensuring you’ve brought the proper tools. After all, an over with the proper chemicals will still result in a less than satisfactory shine. There are 3 brushes that every cleaning crew needs: a nylon brush (for the softer surfaces), a copper brush (for soft metals and hard surfaces), and a stainless-steel brush (for hard metal surfaces). Brushing with a brush that isn’t hard enough will not remove the layer of grime that allows for proper cleaning, and brushing with a tool that’s too hard will scratch up the surface being cleaned.

The last step in executing any good cleaning plan is the application process in which the chemicals and the tools are used. For example, it would be fruitless to wipe down the countertops, before cleaning the top of the fridge and the microwave. This is because you will just end up sweeping dirt and dust back onto the counter from these higher surfaces. A proper order is nearly as important as chemicals and tools.
