    Default Tell me about Scrubbing Bubbles

    I hear a lot of guys say they clean up their nasty old razors with Scrubbing Bubbles. So I want to get some SB to try. I go to the store's cleaning section and find SB. Problem is...there's a number of different Scrubbing Bubbles products. A foam spray. A pump bottle type. A super cleaner for tubs. One for toilets. Then there were the little individual packets. Man, nothing's easy...

    As silly as this may seem, tell me which SB I need for funky razors.

    I use the foaming spray. Just place the razor in the sink and spray away. Let it sit for a few minutes then hit it with an old toothbrush.

    Yep, its good for many things. Just plain old Scrubbing Bubbles foamy spray is what you'll need.

    I was looking for the answer to this same question! Felt certain the answer had to be in a thread someplace.

    I got my first super speed the other day and this stuff worked awesome. My bathroom faucet looks awesome too.

    This is not the one that you want
    Razors don't shave people. People shave people!

    There are three critical types of moments in life: Times when we should use opportunity to be enamoured with finer details, and times we should ignore the minutia.

    I am waiting for someone to say that they use Scrubbing Bubbles instead of water to make lather. It should exfoliate very well.

    I'm glad somebody asked. I've been wondering the same thing.
    Please don't tempt me to buy anymore.

    I have used and continue to use the Foamy type. It works great. I spray it on and let it soak for about ten minutes. Then I use the thick pipe cleaners and an old toothbrush to get at into all the hard to reach places. Afterwards I give everything a good wash with a lot of soapy hot water. Happy Shaving. Sam

    Watch out for those 10-minute soaks if your razor has any paint left in the numbers (because it probably won't after that!)

    I recently discovered that I'd been using the wrong kind of SB to clean all my gunky old razors.
    I had the type that removes soap buildup. Oh, well, I'm still here.

    You want the kind that mentions killing baceria on the label. To be extra sure, look for the active ingredient listed on the back.

    Woah woah woah...I wouldn't go that far. Duct tape holds the universe together. Scrubbing Bubbles sometimes makes guys think they can bleach their razors

    just kidding, it is pretty good stuff!
