12 Awesome Uses For The Melamine Sponge

Did you know that melamine foam is used as insulation, soundproofing material and in cleaning products like the ScrubX melamine sponge? Melamine is an effective abrasive cleaner. The abrasive foam loosens up dirt and grime, then absorbs and traps it in the sponge.

Melamine foam erasers only need water to effectively clean stains, making them convenient to use. Simply wet the sponge with water, use some elbow grease, and after a few scrubs, your surface will be like new. Keep in mind that the melamine sponge is actually a very abrasive, hard surface, so be mindful when cleaning delicate surfaces. You should always preform a spot check on an inconspicuous part of the surface before trying these...
