Gumption Multi Purpose Cleanser Questions & Answers (page 3 of 5)

Around $5.50 from Coles

I have used it in my oven just to give it a quick clean. As long as you wipe it all off it will be fine. Hope that helps

Yes it should. Very good in cutting grease deposits.

Ok no worries so a rack with deep fried food on display work the same and do i have to scrub it

Sorry, I can't answer this, but I would like to know the answer. I have looked everywhere for a list of ingredients but cannot find anything. I experience contact allergies with may products and I feel Gumption may be a safer alternative due to its paste form, but I would like to know what's in it, please.

Hi Joe
I suppose if the container is not air tight, the paste would eventually dry out and go hard.

Yes. After I've finished scrubbing, I go over it with some normal dish soap and hot water. Gumption is non-toxic, however I just want to be sure any residual Gumption is cleaned away so I can't taste it the next time I use the pot to cook!

Hi Ken,

Yes, I would try that for sure, please keep in mind it is an abrasive so there maybe scratch marks but being white plastic it should be OK, just gently first.

Hi Fran,

I would be too scare on a nice marble table.
Gumption is an abrasive!
When I get a coffee cup stain on a marble coaster, I use a baby wipe to get the marks of & it works a treat.
However, baby wipes may have a chemical & do damage, so if I was going to you, I would test on a not so obvious spot first.
Marble & caeser stone is so nice but I would not like the maintenance, I prefer laminex now, lasts so much longer, easy to clean & not as expensive!
There are some nice laminex out there now.
Hope this helps.

Regards,
Angie

Thanks Angie

Hi,
I agree with above comment. If in doubt use Vinegar & Bicarbonate of Soda, certainly does work & not harmful to environment.

Gumption is an abrasive so be careful & test a small bit first.
I used it on the calcium build up around the kitchen taps on the stainless steel sink, all the build up went but my sink is nearly 10 years old so if it did scratched I wasn't worried.
I have used it on my stainless steel gas cook top, magic! It is not a well lit area so I cant see any scratches but be again test first, good luck.
You may end up gumptioning the whole house like me lol..

Short answer YES. Gumption can be used on stainless steel sinks & cooktops. As has been already stated Gumption is an abrasive but if you don't rub continually in same spot should not be a problem. I use on my stainless steel gas cooktop, double sink, mircowave, toaster, kettle & dishwasher. Small amount on damp cloth, no rubbing required, spread a film of paste over surface & rinse off.

Hi Sheila, I would test it first just to make sure it does not scratch. Make sure you rinse it off. It is an amazing product and I am sure you will be using it on everything.

Try Woolies though I think I got mine in my local IGA

Thanks. I'll look around in Christchurch a bit more. I'm in NZ, not Australia!

I have never seen this in NZ, don't think there is any retailers that supply it either but if you are desperate I am happy to help a fellow Kiwi out and send you some!

Thanks for the offer, Sam. Luckily out neighbour was in Queensland a couple of weeks ago and brought some back for us. That should last for a year or two!

I a m living n NZ and would be very grateful if someone can send me some!!!

You sure can

thanks Sam :) I was thinking if cleaning my oven with it, now I will

I've never tried it, but I would!
I've used it on blouses to remove anti-perspirant stains with great results in seconds.

Ok thanks!! I'll give it a go!

Not my area of expertise, sorry!

Is Gumption Vegan!?! What sort of question is that?! Heres your answer Gumption is a cleaning product, not an edible spread lol

To answer above. Vegan is a lifestyle not a diet. It pertains to anything you use in your daily life, from food to clothes to soaps and shampoos, and, you guessed it, cleaning products...

I read somewhere that it uses beef tallow

No idea, but can't imagine that it would be appealing to pets or be toxic. Suggest you contact the manufacturer.

No you can't

Haven't got anything made of marble so can't answer that one

Absolutely you would be able too will work well as Gumption does on most hard surfaces, just always take caution as Gumption is a little gritty and may scratch the surface, though rarely does scratch, ive been cleaning my white stove top with Gumption for years and never been scratched.

You can try it, but as marble is porous, it would have absorbed the liquid- so a product like Gumption wouldn't be able to remove stuff from the surface, as very little of the problem is on the surface. It's inside/a part of the marble now.
