Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


I bought some spray paint to Spruce up a white plastic patio chair. The directions on the spray can said to "wipe with an ammonia based cleaner," and I unthinkingly obeyed. The chair was grungy with years of dust, grime, and pet grunge.

The ammonia wasn't working and I was gasping from the fumes. I suddenly came to my senses and pulled out my bottle of Thieves all purpose cleaner. I rubbed it undiluted on the stubborn areas with my fingers and waited a few minutes. I also added some straight Thieves oil, then with just the scratchy side of a kitchen sponge, the stuck on grime started coming off. Now I won't say I didn't have to use a little elbow grease, but it did work better than the commercial cleaner and did not fill my home with toxic fumes!
