Your 6-step outdoor cleaning checklist

Kit & Kin BBQ Cleaning Tips 1. Tackle the BBQ

Greasy grills? Not a problem! Our multi-surface cleaner makes light work of all those food splatters and smoke stains. Spray directly onto cool grill surfaces, inside and out, leave for a few minutes, then use a wire brush or sponge and give it a rinse. It’ll make all that scrubbing easier, without any overpowering chemical smell.

Kit & Kin Garden Furniture Cleaning 2. Wipe down garden tables & chairs

Outdoor furniture can quickly gather dust, pollen, and sticky little fingerprints. A few spritzes of our all-purpose cleaner will help wipe away germs and grime, while being safe for those little hands - as well as your pets! Just spray, wipe, and let the sunshine do the drying.

Kit & Kin Outdoor Cleaning Tips 3. Freshen up pushchairs, wellies & outdoor toys

Whether it’s muddy wheels, mucky boots or toys left out in the rain, our multi-surface cleaner is your all-round hero for cleaning anything and everything. It’s tough on muck and mildew, yet gentle enough to use on all of your little one’s bits and bobs.

Our top tip? Our multi-surface cleaner can be diluted - ideal for soaking toys for a really deep clean, or for keeping in a bottle by your door to give toys a quick wipe down before bringing them back into the house.

Kit & Kin Outside Window Cleaning 4. Shine up your greenhouse or shed windows

Got smudgy glass in your greenhouse or shed? Our eco glass cleaner leaves windows sparkling without streaks or strong fumes. It’s a quick win that’ll put the finishing touch on your outdoor space - your tomato plants will thank you!

Kit & Kin Outdoor Furniture Cleaner 5. Revive your outdoor cushions

Been storing your seat pads and garden cushions over winter? Give them a quick spot-clean using our eco washing up liquid, to tackle any mildew or dirty marks. For a deeper clean, pop your covers in the wash with our hypoallergenic laundry liquid - it’s gentle on skin and powerful on stains.

Kit & Kin Outside House Cleaning 6. Clean plant pots, containers & ornaments

Terracotta pots, planters and garden ornaments can collect algae and dirt over time. Mix a few drops of our non-toxic washing-up liquid with warm water and give them a good scrub. It’s the perfect way to prep for new plants and flowers - thanks to our chemical-free formula, there’ll be no harsh residues left behind.

Our top tip? Use an old toothbrush to get into all those nooks and crannies - your garden gnomes have never looked so good!
