Indoor And Outdoor Surface Care With DirtBusters

Taking care of your household means dealing with the dirt and grime that builds up on the different kinds of surfaces, the stains that ruin the deco, all through to the odours that make family members and guests uncomfortable. DirtBusters is a brand that has numerous solutions that cater to your cleaning needs. Let’s look at what it has to offer.

Kitchen Care Made Easy

This is one of the busiest places in the household, and there is bound to be loads of grime. Spills, greasy residue, everyday dust – they accumulate on the different surfaces, creating messes that need to be attended to. For instance, greasy residue comes from a myriad of sources. When cooking with oils and fats, like vegetable oil, butter, or bacon grease, they can splatter and create a greasy residue on surfaces from countertops and stovetops, to the range hoods. When cooking with high heat, grease can become airborne and settle on nearby surfaces, including walls, cabinets, and even ceilings.

To get rid of the grease residues in the kitchen, DirtBusters has got you covered with products like the 5L Eco Degreaser Solution, With Eucalyptus. This non-toxic kitchen cleaner can be used on a wide range of surfaces, from ovens and microwaves, to cooker hoods, extraction filters, and even cupboard doors. It’s a very concentrated product, where 5L of the product are used to prepare 50 litres of cleaning solution. In line with the brand’s sustainability goals, the DirtBusters Eco Degreaser Solution is a biodegradable formulation. It is effective in removing the grime from the floors, kitchen tiles, stainless steel surfaces, splashbacks and the likes, without putting surrounding biodiversity at risk. Since there are no harsh chemicals in the formulation, you can get the cleaning done without worrying about the health of persons in the premises being jeopardised.

Over the years, appliances and surfaces begin becoming dull. The loss of shine is expected, given the heavy usage that the equipment in the kitchen are taken through. Kitchen surfaces like countertops, floors, and cabinets can lose their shine due to regular use and wear and tear. Surfaces exposed to heat and moisture are also affected, including the cabinets and walls which end up losing their lustre. For the spills and stains that weren’t cleaned up properly in time, they get dull and could even be discoloured. When one uses harsh cleaners on the surface, the aesthetic appeal of the appliances and surfaces becomes a casualty. There are also the effects of exposure to direct sunlight which can cause surfaces to fade.

The DirtBusters Multi Shine Polish kicks in to reverse this, restoring shine to your pan supports, stainless steel appliances, Plastic and Enamel surfaces, all through to oven fronts. It is a thick gloss coating that enables you to ward off the effects. This formulation has been made with a blend of silicones that coat and protect the treated surface. The resultant gloss finish that you get with the polish is resistant to high heat levels – meaning that the surfaces get to retain their shine for longer.

While this formulation was originally intended for professional oven cleaning, its versatility allows it to be used for steel and other surfaces – and can be applied with just a microfibre cloth. Simply apply a small amount of the product onto the target surface and allow it to dry. Unlike caustic solutions which contain chemicals that can be damaging to surfaces, and can cause skin and eye irritation if they come into contact with the skin, that won’t be the case with the non-caustic Multi Shine Polish. It is gentler on surfaces and does not cause damage, leave residue or put persons on the premises at risk. However, do not apply the product onto BBQs, grill pans and similar surfaces that will come into contact with food.

Floor Cleaning

Floors are bound to get soiled – and you need to pack your cleaning arsenal with adequate products and tools that will enable you to deal with the grime that builds up. There’s the dirt that is brought in under foot traffic, where the higher the levels of traffic, the more the soiling that gets transferred onto the floors from the outdoors. More dirt, mud, and debris can be tracked inside during rainy or snowy weather. Accidental spills of food, beverages, and other liquids can leave stains on floors. Even pets contribute to the soiling, from the grime that they bring in after their outdoor escapades, to the fur and dander that they leave behind. If there is poor ventilation, indoor air can become stale, allowing dust and other particles to accumulate on all surfaces.

DirtBusters range of products includes solutions that can be used to deal with the day-to-day maintenance of floors. Take the 5L DirtBusters Multi Floor Solution for instance. It’s a powerful formulation that breaks down the stubborn dirt that has accumulated on floors, neutralises the odours, and sanitises the surfaces. There’s also the DirtBusters Eco Wood Floor Cleaner Liquid, developed with natural ingredients and safely cleans wood floors. It nourishes the wood surface, that way you get to remove the grime and revive the existing finish. You can also use it on marble surfaces and similar installations that are sensitive. This product is concentrated, and each 5L of formulation can be used to prepare 250L of cleaning solution. The DirtBusters Bio Multi Clean, on the other hand, works on a vast range of surfaces, from the bathroom tiles, wood installation, worktops and shelves, to glass and stainless steel. Incorporating it into your cleaning arsenal enables you to have an economical and eco-friendly formulation that is versatile enough for multiple surfaces around the home. It’s an orange fresh formulation that will remove the dirt and grime efficiently, while relying on natural ingredients – keeping in line with your goals of home maintenance with sustainable products.

You can also get products that target those particularly troublesome stains. For instance, if your furry friend has made a mess on the floor, the DirtBusters Pet Pro Multi Surface Floor Cleaner Solution With Deodoriser will get the task done. This concentrated formulation has been developed for hard floor cleaning, getting rid of the stains left behind after urine accidents, and neutralising the odours as well. That way you can restore things to normal, and not have to worry about your pet repeatedly marking that same spot. It’s suitable for a wide range of surfaces, from sealed wood, tile structures, and linoleum, all through to washing the kennel floors. It’s a biodegradable formulation, and also comes with an ocean mist fragrance, enabling you to deliver a thorough clean and leave a pleasant scent in its wake. The non-toxic formulation is safe for use around pets, and you can make the application with a multi floor cleaning machine

Bringing The Sparkle Back To Your Windows

With their constant exposure to the elements, windows get soiled pretty quickly. Over time, dust and debris can accumulate on glass panes making them look dirty and dull. Smoke and other pollutants in the air can settle on them as well, making them look dirty. Buildings in heavily polluted areas – like in cities or in industrial zones, are the most affected. Add this to every day dust accumulating on the glass. When it rains, the droplets rolling down the windows through the layers of dust create unsightly streaks Dead insects and the body waste of the critters scurrying around the windows can stick to the structure, leaving unsightly marks. That yellowish-green film you see over the spring and summer months is from pollen from plants and trees sticking to the windows. Even casually touching windows with dirty hands can leave oily fingerprints.

The dirt and grime on the windows obstruct the view of the outdoors, and reduce the amount of natural light getting into the space. The curb appeal takes a hit, with the building looking unappealing and poorly maintained. When left unattended to, it reduces the lifespan of the windows, leading to costly repairs or replacements. To take care of your windows, the brand provides solutions like the DirtBusters Window Vac Solution Glass Cleaner Concentrate. This non-toxic and biodegradable formulation is especially intended for glass panes, allowing you to give them a streak-free shine. It gets rid of the water marks on the windows, smudges and fingerprint markets, and the grime left behind by bugs, as well as other greasy residue. You can use it with any window vac machine, and it is a concentrated product, where each litre of product can be used to whip up 20L of window cleaning agent. You can also use it on mirrors and glass shower screens.

Jewellery Cleaning – Taking Care Of Your Gems

That elegant jewellery that complements your daily outfits is also susceptible to dirt and grime. Oils from our skin build up on it over time, creating a greasy residue. Do you wear your jewellery and watches while exercising or doing other activities that cause you to sweat? The sweat mixes up with natural oils and dirt, making them more soiled. Spraying perfume or cologne on your neck or wrists also adds to this. As you walk around outside with those earrings, necklaces and body piercings, they can come into contact with dirt, dust, and other environmental pollutants. Exposure to chemicals, such as those found in household cleaning products or swimming pools, can also cause jewellery to become dirty and greasy over time. Keeping your pieces in their original elegant condition requires proper care. How do you go about it?

Ultrasonic cleaning effectively removes dirt, grime, and other contaminants from even the most hard-to-reach areas of your jewellery or watches. This includes oils, grease, and other substances that can build up over time and damage your items. Here, high-frequency sound waves are used to create millions of tiny bubbles in a liquid solution, which then implode, creating microscopic pressure waves. This process can reach into the small crevices and gaps in jewellery and watches to dislodge dirt, dust, and grime – even for those that are difficult to clean by hand. The DirtBusters Ultrasonic Cleaning Solution is an eco-friendly formulation that is used in the ultrasonic machines – hence the name, or can use it by hand when cleaning your jewellery and watches. It is a neutral PH formulation, which you can rely on to restore the sparkle to your diamonds, silver and gold gems, copper and brass pieces, and other kinds of jewellery. From gemstones to watches and their straps, the product enables you to get rid of the grime and grease that are in them, without exposing yourself to harsh chemicals. It’s relied on by thousands of professional jewellers to keep their pieces in top condition. With a dilution rate of 10:1, where 100ml of product can be used to prepare 1L of cleaning solution, it is a cost-effective way of taking proper care of your delicate ware. However, it should not be used on plated opals.

Maintaining Your Rides With DirtBusters

Getting cleaning agents that have been purposely developed for working on motorbike and car surfaces is a key part of maintaining them. After all, you won’t want to be in a situation where the soaps and detergents you use end up ruining the paintwork of your ride, or damaging the metal and plastic parts. DirtBusters has taken the lead in providing formulations that will enable you to take care of your vehicles, motorcycles and even boats, that way you can keep them gleaming all through.

Vehicle Care

Here you have a range of products to use at home for family vehicles, those in the valet industry, to car wash businesses. The products from the brand cater to interior and exterior vehicle cleaning, while sticking to the business mantra of using eco-friendly products. It’s all about getting your vehicles clean without relying on harsh chemicals, with formulations that are safe for the user, those around them and the environment as a whole. Popular products in this category include:

Snow Foams – Here you have products like the 5L DirtBusters Car Snow Cherry Fragrance Foam Shampoo (With Polymer Wax). it’s a pre-wash treatment that, once applied on the car surfaces, breaks down the grease that it picked up while on the road, as well as the films of residue that accumulate over time. This extra thick foam will cling to the car surface, giving it more time to chemically act on the dirt and the dirt grime, for it to be easily lifted off the surface. It’s effective on the car body, rims and wheels, and you won’t have to worry about it damaging the paint finish itself. The professional standard and hydrophobic formulation comes with polymer wax, enabling you to deliver a high shine and steak-free cleaning results. Thereafter, water droplets as you go about your journeys will simply bead up and roll off the car, allowing it to retain its clean and shiny look for longer. You can use the 5L DirtBusters Car Snow Cherry Fragrance Foam Shampoo with different types of pressure washer attachments, including lance, gun, foamer and cannon units. Since this formulation has been developed for contact-less usage, risks of scratches or marks are avoided.

The DirtBusters Car Snow Cherry Fragrance Foam Shampoo is a concentrated product. It is diluted with water with a 1:1 ratio. As such, with cleaning 5L of product, you will be able to prepare 10 litres of cleaning solution, giving you more usage out of every unit purchased. Simply prepare the solution, and spray it all over the vehicle. The product does the heavy work for you. Give it a few minutes of dwell time, then rinse off the contents with clean water. Follow this with time a dry buff using formulations like the Wash & Wax or the Waterless Car Cleaner. The cherry fragrance of this product adds to the fresh appeal of the newly cleaned car.

There is also the 5L Lemon Fragrance Foam Shampoo, which can be used on its own for a quick clean, as the first step (prewashing) before following up with other car cleaning products. This product remains consistent with its thick form, which once applied onto the car, will encapsulate the dirt and grease that is on the vehicle. The wax elements of the product leave the car shining, and it is also safe for both the bodywork and its wheels. Another alternative you can go for is the 5L Vanilla Fragrance Foam Shampoo, which also delivers hydrophobic protection – that way the car can remain cleaner for longer. The Snow Foam products are non-caustic making them safe for the cars being worked on, and the personnel handling them. You get to ensure that the vehicles receive a thorough clean without damaging the paint finishes. You can use the product on vans, trucks, camper vans, luxury mobile homes – keep your rides in optimal conditions for your travels.

One special mention: The pH-neutral Ignition Transmission Snow Foam. This premium cleaning agent is a popular product for professional detailers, leaving no strands behind while setting a protective coating. The product can be used as a prewash treatment, breaking down the grease and dirt on the car body before going ahead with the usual shampoo washing. In case there are already layers of wax or polish that have been applied onto the car, these will be safe given that the DirtBusters Ignition Transmission Snow Foam is a sealant-friendly product.

Wash & Waxes

A post-ride clean-up will keep your bike in good condition for longer. Sure, all that mud can be a “badge of honour”, showing off your adventures off-road – like for the case of dirt bikes, but leaving it unattended can lead to mechanical and electrical problems, and further breakdowns down the road. Leaving the bike caked in mud wears down the seals, and accelerates the corrosion process. Ignoring the gunk that is on the chain and allowing it to accumulate weakens down the sprockets, and messes with the entire drive chain.

Cleaning motorbikes is quite different from washing cars. This is mainly because most of the ride’s mechanical running gear has been exposed – right through to the switchgear and controls. Everything still needs to be cleaned – from the wheels to the saddle and brakes, all while retaining the paint and chrome of your bike. The 5L DirtBusters Motorbike Wash comes in to enable you to achieve this. This premium cleaning agent has been developed with carnauba wax, getting rid of the dirt, oil and grease deposits, and setting a quality streak-free shine on your bike. The extra-rinse agents that are in the formulation enable the cleaned bike to dry quickly, and yield gleaming results. The wax agents on the other hand continue protecting the bike, even ensuring any water that winds up on it beads off. That way, you can use the 5L DirtBusters Motorbike Wash to give your bike that desired showroom shine that lasts for longer.

For the application, start by diluting the product. This is a highly concentrated product, and two capfuls of product will be enough for every bucket of water. In fact, with just 5L of the product, you can prepare up to 1000L of motorbike cleaning solution. This contributes to reducing the cost that you incur in the routine maintenance of your bike.

The premium Super Cera line – This Iine is particularly developed for those keen on giving their vehicle a top shine, and is popular amongst detailers and dedicated car enthusiasts. Take the 150g DirtBusters Super Cera Car Wax for instance, developed using T1 grade Brazilian Carnauba wax, that has been blended with modern synthetic hard waxes. Looking for a concourse premium finish? Then this is the product to go for. It delivers a deep wet look gloss shine courtesy of the Brazilian carnauba T1, renowned all over the world for this effect. The synthetic hard waxes come in to enable the blend to withstand the elements and high temperatures by creating strong bonds, that way the shine can be maintained for longer and also preserves the car’s own paintwork. For instance, when it comes to everyday rain protection, the treatment causes the droplets to bead up and run off the surface. In fact, the shine that you get from the 150g DirtBusters Super Cera Car Wax can last for up to 6 months. The coconut fragrance of the product adds to the elegance, leaving your car with its unique scent that lasts for days.

Keeping your caravan or boat looking sharp during your adventures

Don’t let a dirty caravan or boat spoil your next adventure. DirtBusters cleaning solutions are specially formulated to give your home away from home a thorough clean, while being kind to the environment. Give your caravan or boat a professional-grade clean, inside and out. There’s plenty that can cause your rides to get soiled while you’re out on your journeys.

Insects splatter and leave debris collect on the body of a caravan during a long drive. When parking under a tree, the caravan collects leaves, twigs, and other plant matter, while if it’s near a river it picks up mud and sand from the riverbank. Bird droppings can also accumulate on the roof especially if you’re parked under a tree for shade. While traveling on dusty roads, the wheels kick up dirt and debris onto its exterior. For those parked close to the city, there’s the grime and pollution from car exhaust and industrial activity. At the campsite, there’s the dust and dirt blown by the wind. If you’re taking your caravan to the beach, it can get coated in sand and saltwater spray from the ocean.

Formulations like the 5L DirtBusters Caravan Motorhome Wash & Wax Shampoo come in to keep your ride clean. The professional-grade carnauba wash and wax is engineered to safely remove all dirt, mud, grease, and oil deposits, leaving a premium carnauba wax finish that protects your caravan’s paintwork. Plus, with extra rinse aids, the solution dries quickly and streak-free, giving your caravan that desired shine. And with its high concentration, only two capfuls per bucket are needed, meaning you can prepare up to 1000 litres of cleaning solution with every unit purchased.

You also don’t want a dirty and smelly waste tank ruining your outdoor escapades. That’s where the formaldehyde-free DirtBusters Organic Caravan Motorhome Toilet Fluid & Rinse All-in-one Solution comes in. It’s a natural cleaning agent that breaks down waste, neutralizes odours, and maintains a clean and odour-free waste tank. With just 60ml per 10 litres of waste tank capacity, a 2-liter container can last up to 20 treatments. And it’s safe for all caravan, motorhome, and porta potty toilet waste tanks. The heavy duty DirtBusters Organic Caravan Waste Tank Treatment Dissolvable Sachets come with 50g of natural bacteria and enzyme-rich powder, enriched with plant extracts to break down solids and neutralise odours. With their plastic-free packaging, you can feel good about using a non-toxic, biodegradable alternative to traditional tank treatment products. Simply dissolve 1 sachet in your empty waste tank, add 1-2 litres of water, and let the organic components do their job. The high dilution rate of 1 sachet per tank, each 6 or 12 sachet pack can last for multiple treatments.

For boats on the other hand, while at a marina they accumulate grime and fingerprints from people getting on and off. After a day of water sports, the boat’s upholstery and flooring can get stained from sunscreen and other personal care products. Its deck when parked at a busy dock gets stained from spilled drinks and food. If you leave it docked for a while gets covered in barnacles and other marine growth. The splashing saltwater at the marina leaves a residue that dulls the surface. Going on a fishing trip? Fish guts and scales getting on the deck and hull can make them messy.

To take care of your boat, the brand gives you solutions like the DirtBusters Boat Wash & Wax Cleaning Shampoo. This is a formulation that has been developed with premium grade carnauba wax, that leaves a streak-free shine on your boat surfaces. The treatment gets rid of the grease and oils that are on the boat, and you won’t have to worry about chemicals that will put the quality of life at risk. You can use it on any kind of water vessel, from canal boats to yachts headed out to the open seas. The 5L product is concentrated and can yield up to 1000L of cleaning solution to be used on the boat exterior surfaces, as well as glass and chrome installations. To use it, mix 2 capfuls of product in a bucket of water, then apply the solution onto the target surface using a sponge or cloth. Rinse the area, and buff it dry with chamois leather or microfibre cloth.
