Mr. Clean Magic Eraser is a cleaning product that consists of an eraser-shaped pad of white micro foam that can remove stains from walls, plastic, metal and other surfaces.
Function
Magic Erasers are made of melamine foam that has a fine porous surface that allows it to abrasively rub off stains such as a super-fine sandpaper.
Benefits
Magic erasers are very portable and simple to use, and can remove a wide variety of stains that are normally difficult to get out such as paint, crayon and marker.
Drawbacks
Magic erasers can wear out quickly because the cleaning action is done by abrasive rubbing that can tear the foam pad.
Cost
A pack of four Mr. Clean Magic Erasers costs around $5 as of October 2009; packages that contain more pads will cost more, but the average cost per eraser is usually less.
Potential
Magic Erasers are great for cleaning up after young children playing with crayons or paint, and are useful for cleaning stains on cars.
