We used this cleaner for our sink installation and replacing cracked PVC caps. The cleaner works well. There is nothing extraordinary to report here. It works and thats about it. The brush is pretty absorbent and you'll need channel locks to open the cap (Or I'm just weak!) Its held up for a few months now.
It does the job.
Would RecommendThis did all it said it would, except when I go to tighten the lid, no matter how tight it would still leak. So that kind of was a let down since I had to throw it away.
