"Magic Eraser" to clean new mask residue?

[Artimas]

Has anyone tried the Mr. Clean "Magic Eraser" to clean new mask residue?

I was thinking about trying it on my new mask. It's slightly abrasive and works really well cleaning stuff around the house, it might work better than toothpaste.

was just mentioned in this thread the other day for slates and masks

I posted about it on the other thread. It works for me. I do a quick burn w/ a lighter, then magic eraser. No problems. Soft scrub and every other new mask cleaning solution is slightly abrasive. I'm not saying it will work with every mask or with any fancy coatings, but I haven't had any problems with it.

I don't know how it will work with extra coatings, but on the basic tempered glass mask I bought recently, The extra strength magic eraser and toothpaste seem to work great! I didn't want to try the lighter, didn't want to risk screwin up the skirt on a new mask, and I have only fog tested in the Kitchen so far though. I'll know for sure later this month.

The degreaser hand cleaners, that have a little grit in them, work really well, too
