RE: things magic eraser cant do
It cannot remove permanent marker from most surfaces, but I found something that can easily. Aerosol hair spray that's right, write something on surface with marker and spray it. Watch the ink lift right off just wipe away with paper towel and it's gone!

I use it to clean my white mac book, works great! Also use it for my white flip flops, and dirty bathtubs, that will not clean with a normal cleaner.

You can use it dry to clean tarnished silverware. The tarnish dissapears. Its AWESOME! It also got rust spots off of my knives (stainless steel).

RE: Uses for the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser
I use a combination of Mr Clean Magic Eraser and Mr Clean Orange Cleaner to clean stubborn dry erase marker boards. We have marker boards here that have had writing on them for 10 years. Two passes with the "Magic Orange" combo cleans all of it off, and then one final pass with a papertowel and a few spritzes of Orange Clean makes the board spotless. Its an unbeatable combination, which works on formica counter tops, table tops, stainless steel sinks, refridgerator shelves, etc. The Orange Clean is gentle enough to not chemically damage surfaces, like granite, but I do not recommend using the Magic Eraser on granite as it dulls the finish.

RE: Uses for the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser
It got hair dye off my forehead and ears with ease. Some claimed it burned, I thought it just tingled a bit. we also use it every summer (we go through a box or 2), to clean off our white boat seats (the vinyl). The rims of our cars, the garage entry door, baseboards.. i literally use this for every tough cleaning job i have around my house. Beware of use on wood, it will leave a nasty white residue.

Washroom stalls.
I work at a large church and found that the eraser does not work at all to remove permanent marker or most things written on metal stall doors or walls for the washrrom stalls.

My 5 yr old son took a magic marker and drew on my kitchen cabinet door and some on the kitchen wall. Do magic erasers work to remove these works of Art?

Believe it or not, it works great for demabrasion on your face or skin, but rub lightly!

It will definately scratch high gloss formica countertops. You can see the scratches if the light is behind the formica. But you can't feel or see it form above. Don't use much pressure at all.

The magic eraser will work well with a spray bottle of vinegar to remove built up soapscum and water deposits from the tub and shower. Crayon marks come off washable wallpaper with very little effort too.

RE: Uses for the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser
I'm going to try it for some of the posted uses. However, the first time I tried it on my painted wall it took off black marks but left very visible "erase" marks which I had to repaint. Wouldn't recommend it for flat painted areas.

Can anyone tell me if this works to take off the black rubber marking from the lawn mower wheels off vinyl fencing?
Editor's Note: I think it would work. It may take a little of the shine off the vinyl though.

These work great on mildew stains for outside wooden furniture. We have two white wooden rockers that needed to be repainted because of mildew stains...I tried the eraser and it made them sparkling white again!

Editor's Note: According to: http://www.sptimes.com/2004/07/24/Homes/A_hand_for_Mr_Clean.shtml
"Hidden secret"
Procter & Gamble first discovered the cleaning aid that became the Magic Eraser a few years ago in Japan. "It was a hidden secret even in Japan," Gilbreath, the brand manager, said. It's a cleaning stick made of melamine foam. Melamine is a resin used in construction and the automotive industry as a sound barrier and flame retardant. It also imparts strength and is used in such products as dinnerware and laminate counter tops.
When the foam is dampened slightly, "It takes off stuff that used to take a lot of elbow grease and other special cleaners or abrasive products. It literally is a magic eraser," Gilbreath said.

Not sure if anyone out there has tried this, but I have an Apple laptop, an iBook, and well, after using it for awhile, you get that dark spot where your wrists sit, and I've tried cleaning solutions, but it just lightens it a bit. I decided to try this and it works amazingly well!! I LUV this thing, and am trying it on everything I can think of! So try it on your laptops!

RE: Uses for the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser
My roommate and I tried the eraser on our off-white linoleum kitchen floor last night and ended up "erasing" almost all of the floor with only 2 sponges. She literally had JUST finished mopping and complained that the floor still looked dirty. This eraser broke right through the tough cracks and pulled out dirt like nothing I have ever seen before! We are so excited and love our floor now! I really wish they would make the same type of product that would clean your entire floor without having to get on your hands and knees. But then again, the results make it worth a sore back. I LOVE THIS THING!

If you are ready to bury your, or someone else's, dishes in the backyard because nothing you've tried will remove the coating of slime, mold and grease that has built up over the last six months in the sink, give the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser a try! Yes, there is, finally, "salvation for slobs"!

RE: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser on Pergo Floors
I think you are talking about shoe scuff marks, right? The Magic Erasers are slightly abrasive but I think it would be okay for Pergo. They say on them not to use on highly polished surfaces. Get Magic Eraser wet, squeeze out the excess water and scrub lightly. If it seems to be working, continue but just remember that it can dull the finish if you scrub too hard.

At a birthday party, a strawberry got squished into my cream colored carpet. I sprayed it with the oxy clean spray and let it sit and then used my Mr. Clean Magic Eraser to scrub the stain and it came right out.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser for Clothing Stains
Use a wet Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and scrub stains on clothes. I recently did this with Spaghetti sauce on a shirt that I did not have time to rewash and it came right out. I have also used this on pen that had been washed and dried several times. The stain is not completely gone, but light enough to wear the shirt again.

A way of removing hard water stains.
I allways get the hard water, orange coloured stains on my bath tub. I find that the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser sponges remove the stains very well. After scrubbing for a bit they begin to disapear.

It easily took the mildew stains off the rubber seals on my fridge. Nothing else even touched them. I also use them to take the black scuff marks off the legs of my white kitchen chairs. It takes some of the shine off the finish, but it still looks better than scuffs.

Using Magic Erasers
Mr. Clean Magic Erasers, I Like to cut them up before use, they
last longer this way. I also use one small square to clean my dry erase message board (dry of course). It cleans the board much more thoroughly than anything that I've tried.

These work great to clean white leather athletic shoes. I make the sponges last longer by cutting them into 3 or 4 pieces. I have found them at my local dollar store 3 pack for a dollar and they are just as good as the Mr. Clean brand.
