Full details
The Marigold Cleaning Me Softly X 2 is designed for those who need to tackle tough dirt on delicate surfaces without causing scratches. Its key benefit is effective cleaning power combined with a non-scratch surface, making it suitable for cookware and appliances. A minor caveat is that while it's non-scratch, prolonged abrasive use on extremely sensitive finishes should still be approached with caution. This pack contains two non-scratch scourers with hygienic, easy-to-rinse foamed backs, approved by Teflon testing.

FAQs
What does 'non-scratch' mean for this product?
'Non-scratch' means the scourer is designed to remove tough dirt and grime without causing visible damage or scratches to most common kitchen surfaces, including those with non-stick coatings, as confirmed by Teflon testing.
How many scourers are in one pack?
Each purchase of 'Marigold Cleaning Me Softly X 2' includes two individual non-scratch scourers.
Can I use this on my cast iron pan?
While it is non-scratch, for seasoned cast iron pans, it's generally recommended to use softer cleaning tools like a brush or a specific cast iron scrubber to preserve the seasoning. For general cleaning of non-seasoned cast iron, it might be acceptable, but proceed with caution.
Is this scourer suitable for high-heat cooking surfaces?
Yes, it is suitable for cleaning surfaces after cooking. However, avoid using it on extremely hot surfaces immediately after cooking to prevent damage to the scourer itself.
How do I dispose of the scourer when it's worn out?
When the scourer is worn out, it should be disposed of in your regular household waste. Please check local guidelines for specific disposal recommendations if available.
Can the 'foamed back' be used for scrubbing too?
The foamed back is designed to be hygienic and easy to rinse. While it has a gentle texture, the primary scrubbing action comes from the non-scratch scourer side. The foamed back is best for general wiping and rinsing.
Troubleshooting
Scourer is not removing dirt effectively.
Ensure the scourer is wet. For stubborn grime, apply a suitable cleaning agent. If the scourer is old or worn, it may be time to replace it.
Residue remaining after rinsing.
Rinse more thoroughly under hot running water. Gently squeeze the scourer while rinsing to help dislodge trapped particles. Ensure all cleaning product has been washed away.
Scourer seems to be scratching a surface.
Immediately stop use and test the scourer on an inconspicuous area of the surface. While designed to be non-scratch, extreme pressure or unusual surface materials might react differently. Consider using a softer cleaning cloth for very delicate surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No setup is required. Simply take the scourer from its packaging and it is ready for immediate use.
