I was introduced to Simple Green about 7 years ago, a cleaning woman had the top of an old stove soaking with Simple Green. I ask her, ’’mercy what is that smell?’’ She said, ’’a product called Simple Green.’’ I ask her, ’’well, where did you buy this product?’’ She said, ’’in the automotive department at Wal-Mart.’’
I have never cared for the smell of Simple Green, this product can really open up my sinuses. When I do use Simple Green, I make sure I have plenty of ventilation, or a fan running.
I found that Simple Green really cleans extremely well, and it works better if I let the product soak for at least 30 minutes.
Simple Green is suppose to be non-toxic, but you couldn’t prove it by me by its smell. I know from experience that this product can get my eyes to burning and watering without the proper ventilation. Simple Green is also suppose to be biodegradable.

I can’t imagine washing my clothes with Simple Green. I don’t like Simple Greens smell and I sure don’t want my clothes smelling like Simple Green.
If you are real sensitive to cleaners like Simple Green, I recommend only using this product outside where there is plenty of air.
Always keep this product out of the little ones reach, and avoid eye contact.
