Your favorite cleaning products?

So for the time being I am doing trashouts, cleaning and mow and weeds in foreclosed mobile homes. Most of the time the water and electric are off and I was wondering if anyone here had some magic cleaners that they just love.
My biggest problem is getting soap scum off without wrenching my back scrubbing the shower for 30min. I've tried several brands and am not impressed yet.
My second concern is toxicity to myself by using these products often and alot without gloves. Natural cleaners would be nice, but I have found they do not work as well.
Your favorites/suggestions?

Window frames -
removing black scuffs and marks -

Any woman! There is not a man alive that can clean a house like a woman. Women have that eye for all the little things. If i didn't have a checklist, I'd be screwed. All of my maids are females.

Costco Lysol or Colrox toilet cleaner Jel. We trashout the kitchen and bathrooms first drop the chems and when the trash out is half done start the janit in the kit and bathrooms . Let the chems soak and work while you working and you will cut your time down , in essence you are working smarter not harder letting the chems work like another employee. LOTS OF VENTALATION
The best cleaner we ever used was Kaboom in the purple jug. But, as with anything that really works, they quit making it.
Oxiclean, I haven't tried all their products, but all that I have tried will work on most stains.
Chlorine Gas = bad. Steer clear of making your own hazardous gas clouds. :thumbup:

We use oven cleaner on the stoves and vent hoods that have baked on grease. For the tubs and glass, we use a product from a janitorial supply house that is an acid based product. It works great! Similar to the guys that do the reglazing when they use pool acid to prep the tubs. Pummice stone for the toilets and some sinks. The traditional name brand cleaners (simple green/zep) dont work well. We also get complimented on our cleanings regularly.
The best product for cleaning mobile homes is a tractor.
Sometimes you can call in the big bad wolf and just him blow them trailers down.:yes:

you can dilute vinegar and water or purchase windex with vinegar for multi cleaning and pledge makes an all purpose cleaner work great on any surface the best steamer I have found is the shark work great make sure you get one with the attachments The works is a great product for cleaning toilets and with a little old fashion elbow grease you have yourself a clean house
One of my favorite products is a toilet bowl cleaner called "The Works." It costs $1.70 at Big Lots for a large bottle. You can also get it a Home Depot. I prefer the thicker version. I have found very few things it will not clean.
It is especially good at removing the yellow stains in toilets and bath tubs caused by hard water.
One word of caution. It will eat away the chrome finish on sink fixtures and turn them in to clean brass.

Isn't that the truth. My house was no more than 3 months old after building it, used that crap on my basement tub. Must have been some sitting on top of the drain overnight....ate that pop up drain clear through over night. Kinda scary what it can do. $1.75 bottle of cleaner ended up costing me $60 in parts.One of my favorite products is a toilet bowl cleaner called "The Works."

MEAN GREEN it's about $8.00 per gallon and you can use it concentrated or diluted and it's a multi purpose cleaner.
I don't think the product matters as much as the tool. A stiff brush with a sturdy handle does the majority of the work. Good ones at the Dollar Store. Longer handles with more leverage at Menards.
