<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 485351, member: 308"]I understand and I also find ammonia a bit harsh on my skin. The smell of the Krud Kutter is difficult to describe but non unpleasant. I don't know that it will give you the desired effect on its own however. It is a cleaner but not a polisher. If you want your ites to sparkle Krud Kutter is probably not going to be satisfactory if you are used to ammonia. For glass items I use Krud Kutter to remove really bad dirt/nicotine/grease buildup. It's especially helpful in pattern design crevices. Then I'll finish it off with a quick rinse in the sink with Dawn or just a spritz with a commercial glass cleaner to get the sparkle back. For porcelain and pottery I usually just go with a water rinse just to wash the dissolved dirt off. Krud Kutter will not remove mineral deposits or staining. Please note I do not use it for routine cleaning but I do purchase items at auction from household estates so I get more than my share of filthy neglected pieces.</p><p><br /></p><p>Krud Kutter will also work to remove old glue from price stickers.
