Summer-time = outdoor cleaning time. Thankfully my husband does an amazing job of keeping our outside clean, but occasionally things fall through the cracks. And occasionally, we *might* forget to clean our grill...for 2 years.
Did I really just say that!? Ew. After we built our deck, we bought a brand new Weber grill! And while my hubby will do a quick scrub after each use...we haven't actually CLEANED it for 2 years.
Some say this adds flavor...I say...gross.
So with the help of +Lowe's Home Improvement and +Procter & Gamble I tackled cleaning my biggest outdoor mess: my Grill! And I am so excited to show you:
How to Clean Your Grill: The Easy Way!!
Lowe's and Procter and Gamble sent me a great package that included some of their fabulous Outdoor cleaners! I didn't even know that Mr. Clean had an Outdoor Pro Spray cleaner or that Magic Erasers came in an outdoor version! How cool is that!?
So I was thrilled to get to put these products to the test!
Yup...here is a close up...it's a blackened mess.
Using our wire Grill Brush and Mr. Clean Outdoor Pro Spray we managed to take our grill from gross blackened mess to sparkly silver clean in only about 15 minutes!!
Whoa. I was simply blown away!
Here is a photo showing half of our grill cleaned and half not cleaned so you can see the difference:
I was blown away by how simple it really was to get my grill grate clean using only one product and about 15 minutes of my time!! Mr. Clean Outdoor Pro Spray cut through the grease and grime and caked on blackened mess! I didn't even know my grill grate was silver underneath it! haha But this one product managed to help me get it clean with very little work!
Mr. Clean Outdoor Pro Spray and Magic Erasers have simply blown me away! They work tough on hard stains, greasy items and are perfect for outdoor cleaning use! (as always though please read through their approved uses prior to using)
So when you head to Lowe's to pick up your flowers and mulch, be sure to stop by their amazing cleaning product aisle to pick up everything you need to get your outdoors ready for summer entertaining!
And I am so excited that Lowe's and Procter and Gamble are hosting an amazing Giveaway on my blog today! You can enter to win the following prize package:
Thank you so much to Lowe's and Procter and Gamble for providing product for me to review as well as for providing this amazing prize package for me to giveaway to one lucky reader! While this post was sponsored, all opinions are 100% mine!
