Q: What's the difference between the liquid and the powder of the Bar Keeper's Cleanser? Is one more user friendly than the other?

submitted by LaVie - 2 years ago
  • A: They are the same product; with the exception the Bar Keepers Friend Powder Cleanser doesn’t come water added. Some people like to use the Bar Keepers Friend Liquid Cleanser, that way they don’t guess on how much water to add. With the Bar Keepers Friend Powder Cleanser, you can make it more abrasive with the less water you add.

Q: Does barkeeper's friend contain ammonia?

submitted by islandgirl - 9 years ago
  • A: Even though there is no list of ingredients on the label, one can infer that the product DOES NOT contain ammonia. Here is the except from the label: "Contains Oxalic Acid... Do not mix with other chemicals. such as bleach or ammonia".

    submitted bySleepless inChicago - 9 years ago
  • A: I got this information directly from a google search on barkeeper's friend which was very easy & simple to do. When in doubt, google it. Active ingredients. According to the 2015 material safety data sheet, the ingredients are feldspar, linear sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (DDBSA), and oxalic acid. Unlike more abrasive cleaning powders such as Comet and Ajax, Bar Keepers Friend uses oxalic acid as its primary active ingredient.

    Entire Order - DELIVERED TO WRONG ADDRESS

    I am only giving this item 1 star because we never received the order. The delivery company that Target used delivered our order to the WRONG ADDRESS instead of to me. I spent well over 2 hours on the phone to Target & also 2 other divisions of the delivery company who finally said I have to wait up to 3 more days to get a replacement order or a refund. Ultimately, after 3 days of not getting either, I called again & got a full refund. I made it perfectly clear that I consider it unacceptable service when a delivery driver doesn't even check the address on the order against the address on the house they are delivering the order to.

    Great versatile cleaner

    This is one of my favorite all purpose cleaners - I use it regularly (and the soft scrub cleaner as well) to clean my sink and scrub stains gently off my counter and dishes. I use this one for the heaftier stuff and the soft scrub for more gentle 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.

    Wish I tried this stuff years ago!!!

    I can’t believe it took me so long to try this stuff!!!!! I want to use it on everything, it’s SO GOOD! It’s a little annoying when trying to apply it to a small area (powder doesn’t like to be precise), but that doesn’t sway me at all.

    Miracle worker

    Bought this to clean some scorched food marks off of a sink in a college apartment. Had tried several products and nothing worked. Used this product, made a paste, let it sit for 10 min, had to do some serious scrubbing but got it to come off. This stuff is great!!

    Not impressed with the powder. The liquid works much better! Won’t buy the powder again but will purchase the liquid. The liquid is great at cutting grease and restoring ceramic pans
