Specialty Cleaners (99 items found)

A clean home starts with high-quality cleaning products and for some jobs, ordinary cleaners just won't do. Shower cleaners and other specialty cleaners can cut through grime and leave surfaces spotless. No matter what surface you need to clean, Ace Hardware has bathroom cleaners and other specialty products available to help you get the job done.

Importance of Using Bathroom Cleaners

Bathrooms are some of the most challenging spaces to clean in homes. High humidity levels can lead to mildew growth, while soap residue can build up on surfaces over time. Plus, sinks, showers, tubs and toilets provide warm, moist conditions where germs thrive. The good news is that bathroom cleaners are specially formulated to remove dirt and impurities from various surfaces. You can find these and tools like toilet bowl brushes and cleaning gloves at Ace.

Disinfectant Bathroom Cleaners

Ace features many shower and bath cleaners to help you get a spotless bathroom. In addition to surfactants that allow water to mix with oils for cleaning, many bath cleaners also feature disinfectants that kill common household germs. With pourable liquids, bubbly foams, easy-to-use sprays and convenient wipes available, it’s easy to choose a bath cleaner that gets your space clean.

Spray Shower Cleaners

Showers and baths are often the most problematic places in a bathroom, but with a daily shower cleaner, you can make maintaining an acrylic, tile, ceramic, porcelain or laminate much simpler. These shower cleaners are sprays that you can spritz after every shower you take.

Their ingredients fight the formation of mildew and soap scum to reduce the need for deep cleaning over time. Generally, shower cleaners work best when you start with a clean shower, so you may need to use another bathroom cleaner to prep the area first.

What is Muriatic Acid Used For?

Muriatic acid, also known as hydrochloric acid, is a powerful and corrosive cleaner. It is commonly used in specialty cleaners for masonry, concrete and metal surfaces. It is typically available in liquid form and is used for heavy-duty cleaning tasks such as removing rust, scale and stains. While it is not a common household cleaner, it is often used for specific purposes like adjusting pH levels in swimming pools, cleaning brickwork and preparing concrete surfaces.

Types of Specialty Cleaners

All-purpose cleaners are great for everyday cleaning because they work on so many surfaces. However, their formulas may not be strong enough for tougher cleaning jobs. Specialty cleaners come in formulations that are ideal for specific cleaning challenges. You can shop for cleaners geared toward removing rust, lime scale, grease, water spots and other stains and imperfections:

• Concrete cleaners: Highly concentrated, concrete cleaners can cut through oils and grime from indoor and outdoor concrete surfaces. Some contain muriatic acid for heavy-duty cleaning.
• Stainless steel cleaner: Remove fingerprints and smears to leave behind a polished shine on metal with a stainless-steel cleaner.
