This stuff looked odd and had tons of reviews. FOMO took over so I had to try this.I can't say that a paste is any better than liquid but it truly does work.There's something very satisfying about using it to clean my stove. Also great for cleaning doggy drool off my floor boards. Very gently with just enough grit to remove dirt.One other thing is it doesn't totally wreck my skin.Would actually make a great stocking stuffer!
