What surfaces can I use my Meliora Cleaning Products on?

Only a few products are truly needed in your cleaning supply stock. But where can you use our products safely? Are there surfaces you should avoid? We’ve put together a list to help you limit the items in your supply closet while keeping your home people- and planet-friendly.

As always, we suggest testing an inconspicuous spot for all surfaces in the off chance that the ingredients in your finishes or sealants react differently than expected.

All-Purpose Cleaner

Wipe until dry for a clean streak-free finish. Septic-Safe.

Use On:

• Glass
• Stone
• Natural Tile
• Porcelain
• Stainless steel
• Plastic
• Marble
• Grout
• Wood - natural, stained, or sealed. Due to the wide range of surface finishes, we always recommend testing a small spot (like a corner) to ensure there aren’t adverse effects on the finish.
• Carpet - likely fine for spot cleaning
• Laminate floors and countertops
• Painted walls. Spray onto a rag and wipe gently. Allow to air dry completely. Test in an inconspicuous area for effect on painted surfaces.
