Zep Cleaning and My Greasy Boys

One of the great things about being a member the sample and share program is that you get the opportunity to try products that you have never used before and in some cases have never even heard of it. Crowdtap is a pretty neat sample share program that requires a little more work than others but it is really worth it. I have gotten quite a few  amazing products such as Ragu Pasta Sauce, Vichy Life Proof Serum, Zep Cleaning products and quite a few other pretty awesome products. I love getting freebies just as much as anyone else but the thing that i enjoy the most are the interactions that I have with people and in some cases they're complete strangers. I like walking up to folks who are looking at particular products in the grocery store and just striking up a conversation. Even if I'm not discussing products with them i thoroughly enjoy the simple chit chat and im pretty sure they do too. I know if I was looking for something in the grocery store i would like it if someone came up to me to tell me about something that I didn't know about. I have never had a person get ugly or rude with me in fact I had one elderly lady just recently ask if she was on Candid Camera or something because she had never had anyone walk up to her like that and be so nice. 
Zep Cleaning Products are some pretty great products. I had heard of the Zep name prior to being accepted into the Zep Campaign but I had not used them. I raised 5 kids and have been cleaning since I was a young girl being one of six kids so I like to think I'm pretty good at it. I'm a little bit of a germ freak, nothing big but I don't like them living in my home. I love the smell of a clean house but to me it just wasn't clean unless it was BLEACH clean and being disinfected.  I grew up always being told that bleach is the best way to clean everything and kill germs so I clean everything with bleach and another types of disinfecting productOne of the great things about being a member the sample and share program is that you get the opportunity to try products have never used before and in some cases have never even heard of it.

I received two different types of Zep Products in my kit to try. One of the products in my Zep Cleaning Kit is the Quick Clean Disinfectant. I honestly looked at the bottle thinking of using it but would still follow afterwards with my trusty germ killing bleach or my trusty disinfectant until I read a little further. Did you know that most anti bacterial cleaners can take up to TEN (10) MINUTES to disinfect a surface?? Think about that for a second.. A lot can happen in TEN MINUTES!! Like i wiped my counter off after working with chicken.. I think it's good, right? Well if it takes TEN MINUTES to kill the bacteria,when my granddaughter comes along and puts her half eaten cookie on that counter for a quick second literally just as I finished cleaning it with a disinfectant, picks that cookie back up, taking a giant bite out of... GERMS!! I have never thought about that until I read it on the back of the Zep bottle! The nice thing about Zep, if I would have washed that counter with the Zep Quick Clean then within FIVE SECONDS those germs would've been gone.. Not TEN minutes, not even FIVE minutes, FIVE SECONDS. That's pretty awesome especially with little ones AND the nasty viruses that go around these days. Another great thing about the Zep Quick Clean Disinfectant is that i can use it on every surface of my home. It cuts grime like a gem and it DEODORIZES as well. A lot of cool benefits in one product. 
Another fantastic Zep product is the All Around Cleaner and Degreaser. I live in a house full of grown men. I love each of them more than life itself but dear god are they some nasty creatures! I can't tell you how many times I have cleaned dirt and grease off of the doors, walls, inside of the shower, light switches, you name it they get grease on it. All THREE of them are always fixing someone's car or doing something on one of ours and my son is literally building his own truck so the grease is a part of life in my home. I follow behind them with hot soapy water made with my dish detergent because dish detergent is the only thing that I could get the grease off with. I sometimes wash their greasy clothes in dish detergent. They are currently working on my sons girlfriends car, don't ask me what they are doing, just that the girls car is in a thousand pieces in my garage and has been for going on two weeks now. I have been chasing behind them as usual cleaning up the greasy hand/foot prints that they leave behind going out of my mind. They were on the third day of the car project when my Zep arrived and I kinda giggled to myself when I saw that the bottle said "All Around Cleaner and Degreaser" ha! *THAT* was going to clean up the ton of grease that is all over? My laundry room is in my garage and I have a laundry sink. The guys swear that it's NOT a laundry sink, it is for the guys for when they work on "Stuff" to wash up. That's fine and dandy i don't mind sharing but when there's more grease and grime in that sink than a '75 Chevy, then we have a HUGE problem and momma bear is gonna be pretty upset. The Zep All Around Cleaner and Degreaser has Oxy in it and from past experiences with Oxy type cleaners i know that it really does work... but was it going to get ALL of the grease out of my LAUNDRY sink??
I sprayed just a little spot inside the nasty greasy sink and walked away because the directions said to spray and wait one minute before wiping. I came back a few minutes later thinking that I would probably have to go get my handy dandy dish detergent because *that* stuff wasn't going to budge that mess... Boy was I wrong! I could SEE that it did without even having to work at it! I excitedly sprayed that entire sink and waited a few minutes in complete disbelief that it not only cleaned it all out but that i didn't have to work at it to do so!

 I think it's better for me to take stock in this stuff as long as I have all men living in the house lol! I am so amazed at how well it works. It's pretty powerful stuff but gentle enough to use on virtually everything like carpet and my furniture upholstery. That is so crazy to me! No more buying gallons and gallons of bleach a WEEK or huge bottles of dish detergent, I have the power of all of that in just these two cleaners alone and that's pretty cool to me. I can't wait to try other products made by Zep and I am pretty sure I will see the same result, powerful cleaners that truly do as they claim. 

I love being a Crowdtapper! Without it I would still be chasing behind the guys with dish detergent or THINKING I'm getting my food surfaces disinfected as fast as I can.. I  still have to clean up behind them but I don't have to work SO hard at it! Thank you so much Zep AND Crowdtap! 
Have you tried Zep products? What do you think of them?
