Has any one used oxygen cleaner?

12 years ago

From the dollar store? It's called La's totally awesome power oxygen base cleaner, chlorine free. I want to use it in my shower that has natural marble, on the floor. it states that it is for tile grout and laundry and other uses. I had heard that oxygen cleaners were the way to go so I just want to check before I try it.

I haven't used it and am very skeptical about products from $ stores in general. I don't trust that all the cr*p that is being foisted on us from China is really as it is labelled, or not tainted, or ever inspected by anyone I might remotely trust along the way. I wouldn't risk your beautiful bathroom on saving a few bucks. But if you are determined, I'd sure try it on a sample of your stone to make sure.

I have used the Oxygen powder from the Dollar store, and it works just as well as Oxiclean for a much lower price. I have only used it for my laundry, not for cleaning my bathroom.

Ever tried using an oxygen cylinder to oxygenate your pond?

Hi Sandy Thanks for some interesting information- if I just read more on this site from smart people like yourself, I wouldn't have to spend all my time thinking up crazy ideas. Wow, a pint of hydrogen peroxide per 1000 gallons? Any certain kind of hydrogen peroxide, just like what you buy in the drug store? Do you put this in just once, like pond salt, or do you keeping adding more as time goes on? I'll definately have to try that that this weekend! My pond does have a good (2500 GPH) water cascade coming from a temporary suspended filter. I'm rebuilding the permanent waterfall(filter) and stream right now. It's also completly covered by shade trees. I wasn't sure what you meant about the rubber bellows. I had planned on just running a hose from the regulator directly to an air stone at the bottom of the pond. I'll probably still try my O2 cylinder idea- I'm a welder/frustrated inventer, I love putzing around with ideas! Thanks for your great ideas, I'd love to learn more! Chris

Almost any plant will grow in a hydroponic/hydroculture environment... at considerable expense and constant attention. The question is why would you want to do it?

Has any one used this Browers program Iron

I used to use it and was happy with it, though it was a bit behind in its updates (trying to catch up to Chrome's releases as quickly as possible). Although I use FF almost exclusively these days, I do have Comodo Dragon (another Chromium 'incarnation') and am happy using it and prefer it to Iron, probably because it's put out by a more well-known, reputable company than the more obscure Iron. FWIW, after leaving Iron I did find an article (at the filterjoe.com web site) evaluating browsers in 2011 and found a link to a site exposing some "controversy" around the browser. It purports to reveal the motive(s) of the creator of the browser. Not that that has anything to do with the quality of the browser itself. Here is a link that might be useful: Comodo Dragon

Has any one used Beher Pumpkin Butter?

I have this in my study with "spicy cayenne" for an accent wall. The color is a rich pumpkin color, but it is difficult to photograph to show the true color. Here is a picture of the room after it was painted (but the furniture hadn't been moved back in). BTW - the walls are pumpkin butter, the accent is spicy cayenne, the trim is ultra white (b/c this is what I have through the house), and the ceiling is butter cookie.

Olychick, my thoughts exactly! Well I called the phone number off the back and a guy answered hello and then hung up... I tried to call back and it just rang and rang..... what up with that? I then went on line and found a whole long line of people swearing by the stuff. So I tried it....... And... it didn't work. I have pink mold in my shower floor area and it didn't touch it. So I just used scrubbing bubbles and work really fast. Spray, scrub brush, flush with water. I looks beautiful again. But sadly the stuff did nothing for me in the shower, even let it sit for 1 hour. Thankfully it didn't hurt my shower either. I did run a load of whites with it and I think that came out pretty good. Win some - loose some. Thanks terriks..... yep laundry helper for sure.
