Greased Lightning Super Strength Cleaner.  Y’all, this is some strong stuff.  I did have to use a scrubber so a little bit of paint came off, too, but that’s a very small sacrifice to make, I think.  If the surface I was cleaning hadn’t been vertical, I probably would not have needed to scrub because the product would have been able to sink in a bit better.  But, believe me, I am not complaining.  It worked like a charm.

Disclaimer: As a Greased Lightning Strike Force Blogger, I received the sample bottle in the photo, as well as a year’s supply of cleaning products to try, but I was not supplied with this opinion or the dirt and grime I used to form it.
