Review: It’s the OG! - Krud Kutter + extension mop saved my high kitchen ceiling (no $1,500 repaint needed!) I have 11-foot ceilings in my 1890s kitchen. Years of cooking grease, construction dust, smoke and humidity had built up badly near the stove. It wasn’t obvious for over a decade - until I tried to clean it and suddenly it was really noticeable (and streaky). I had only made it gooier somehow? was dreading ladders and a $1,500 repaint quote. Thankfully, I looked closer. The ceiling and walls had a durable semi-gloss enamel (a lovely sour-cream white made for wiping and moisture resistance). Who knew? It just hadn’t been properly cleaned in well over 2 decades. Even if I painted, it would have to be cleaned first anyway. After researching products safe for pets, plants, and indoor kitchen surfaces, I chose Krud Kutter with an extension mop. The results are shockingly good - and easy. This stuff goes gangster on crud. The concentrated formula cut through thick, sticky, rusty grease and mystery alien spots that nothing else touched. My technique: moisten the mop head (not runny), gentle circular squiggles with the microfiber head, wipe-off with the fluffy microfiber head, and a final light vinegar + hot water lightly damp pass. The grime literally squiggled right off. Test patches went from dingy to bright cream white with the original gloss restored. My walls are slightly textured after a century + 2 score years, so I could have switched the fluffy and low pile heads, depending on texture. The extension mop was perfect - no ladder needed, low profile for tight spots, and the different heads (fluffy and flat) made the job manageable. They rinsed right off as I went. The mop reaches corners with a tapered 360° triangle head. Fully extended it doesn’t take heavy pressure, but Krud Kutter does all the heavy lifting anyway. I was able to clean significant sections in short bursts without killing my back, arm fatigue or vertigo with neck contortion. Highly recommend both the cleaner (I bought the gallon) and a good extension mop system for anyone with high ceilings, upper walls or tough kitchen grime. Saved me a fortune and the room looks refreshed, leaning new. It cleaved trim ledges and window frames along with a gungy film on my light fixture and chain. It breezes through mini blind film. I will definitely buy this again. The entire ceiling and walls with blinds took 16 ounces of varying dilution strength. I left a gross patch in the photos for before/after comparison (sorry so ew). 5 stars! A few practical notes: • Wear gloves with higher concentrations (it’s drying on skin). • My stubborn areas wiped right off with the ‘let it dwell a few minutes’ manufacturer’s tip. • Keep the area well ventilated (no strong fumes, but there’s a distinct celery-seed + hint-of-solvent aroma as it dries). • Work in sections and take breaks - overhead work gets dizzying even without fumes. • Rotate and launder mop heads - this pulls off a lot of crud. • Protective eyewear is smart when working overhead. • For spray bottles, not all work well angled or without dripping - look for ones compatible with Krud Kutter. Happy de-schmaltzing!
Review: This Works! - This is a fantastic spray cleaner! Spray it on, wait a few minutes and wipe clean. It does require rinsing but because it cleans so well, the extra rinse is worth it. I laid an old towel on the range top and sprayed the bottom of the microwave waited 5 minutes and it cut through the build up of grease and the vent screens rinsed out clean. KK is usable on a multitude of surfaces.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fire Damage - smoke & soot
*by C***D on June 14, 2012*

We experienced a devastating house fire. Fire raged through one end of the house, heavy smoke and soot found its way in every nook and cranny. 1400 degree heat melted light fixtures, boiled food in the refrigerator. We had extensive pieces of china (Spode, Wedgewood, Herend), ceramics, glass, crystal (Waterford, Baccarat, Yeoward), kitchen ware - some exposed, some in cabinets. The insurance company sent a "service" out the day of the fire. They took 'samples' to see what could be salvaged. When they returned 5 days later, they were prepared to start packing and removing the remaining household items, declaring items were too labor intensive to save. Meanwhile, I went into high gear, filled a couple of plastic bins with similar items and started experimenting with several products at an off site garage sink. Krud Kutter was a name that came up on a fireman's wife's blog. I quickly discovered soot and smoke doesn't rinse off, nor does it wash off easily. I bought the Krud Cutter in the 32oz spray bottle. Using a degreaser dish washing liquid for the first clean and old terry washcloths (sponges and brushes weren't effective), I discovered that Krud Kutter cut through and literally melted off residue in cracks, crevices, corners, etc. I rinsed everything well and dried it, packing it in non print newspaper and plastic bins. I had Herend china with gold leaf on an open hutch totally covered with soot and smoke, even looking scorched. I cleaned 60 some pieces in 3 hours with Krud Kutter and it looked brand new. The 'service' said it took them 3 hours on a coffee pot and they managed to rub off and remove all the gold leaf. I then checked with my local fire department whether Krud Kutter would be safe in our septic system and got the go ahead. A real plus that it is biodegradable, non toxic, and was gentle on my hands (which were taking a real beating!) I immediately ordered 6 gallons of the Krud Kutter concentrated Cleaner Degreaser from Amazon and it arrived quickly. I cleaned a large ceramic WOVEN basket with 30 pieces of fruit in an hour. This product is truly amazing - it saved every piece of non porous china, crystal, glass, ceramics, lamp bases, etc. that had not exploded or cracked from the intensive heat. I also discovered that the length of time the damaged items "sat" didn't effect the successful results using the Krud Kutter cleaner. So, I didn't have to panic that I needed to get everything cleaned up immediately. Storing the bins off site, periodically lifting a cover - no smoke odor whatsoever. The house has been leveled, and we're rebuilding and I plan to repeat the cleaning process with just the Krud Kutter product before placing them in our 'new' home. Losing everything porous - clothing, furniture, rugs, drapes was pretty devastating. But, I swear, without this product, we would have lost everything. I have l/2 gallon left, and have 50plus bins stored. It's truly amazing how quickly it works. It will remain a staple on my shelf! Was the whole process labor intensive? Yes. Was it worth it? Yes . Needless to say, we didn't use the 'service'.
