just a quickie darling.
Got a new sponge for me washboy sponge thingy. Is it just me or do the new sponges appear to start off water and grout resistant? I sponged the wall down as usual and there was loads of grout left on the tiles, might even have to polish them!
Any thoughts chaps and chapesses, is it the sponge or have i lost me mojo?:huh2:

A tip from me!!!!!!!!

Soak the sponge in hot water first ..this will soften it up and away you go......make sure you wring it out well


p.s. not boiling hot as it will bring the sponge off the board....

Didn't have the problem with either of my sponges. Maybe it was your mojo playing up after all.:grin:

Cheers I will try the hot water , the new sponges were definitely 'less efficient'
If that doesn't work I'm of looking for me mojo under the bath....
Maybe it fell in the bog, who knows.
