When you think of Jif, you probably picture gleaming kitchen counters and spotless bathroom tiles. But this powerhouse all purpose cream cleanser has far more range than most give it credit for.

Whether you're a professional cleaner or a facility manager responsible for large, high-traffic environments, the Jif Cream Cleanser brings versatility, efficiency, and surprising cleaning potential to your toolkit.

Let’s take a look at the unexpected surfaces Jif handles brilliantly and why it may be the only cleaner you need.

10,000 Ways to Use Jif (Well, Almost)

Jif is one of the most versatile commercial cleaning solutions on the market. Beyond your everyday sinks and surfaces, here are some overlooked areas where it excels:

  • Outdoor Furniture - Plastic chairs, patio tables, and garden benches are often coated with mildew and outdoor grime. Jif powers through buildup without damaging surfaces, perfect for courtyards, outdoor cafés, and staff areas.
  • White Sneakers & Rubber Soles - In schools, gyms, and recreational facilities, scuffed sneakers and rubber flooring are constant battles. Jif restores that like-new brightness with ease.
  • Stainless Steel Appliances & Fixtures - Whether it’s elevator panels, stainless steel trolleys, or commercial equipment, Jif delivers a polished, streak-free finish that elevates any high-traffic interior.
  • Grout & Tiled Flooring - Tiled corridors and restrooms often suffer from deep-set grime. Jif’s creamy formula clings to grout lines, making it a powerful grout cleaning product that lifts stains without scratching.
  • Handrails & Door Handles - These high-touch areas collect fingerprints, grease, and unseen grime. Jif cuts through residue while delivering a hygienic, polished result.
  • Light Switch Plates & Wall Marks - Scuff marks and grime around switches or painted walls are common in commercial spaces. Jif can remove these gently, just test on a small area first.
  • Bins & Waste Stations - Plastic and metal bins, especially in food courts or public spaces can harbor grime and odours. Jif helps cut through buildup while leaving a clean surface.
  • Vehicle Door Panels & Thresholds - Fleet managers or facility vehicles often accumulate grease and dirt in door frames or footwells. Jif removes this grime without damaging finishes.
  • Fridge Seals & Appliance Rubber Edges - These hidden spots often trap crumbs, and gunk. A small amount of Jif applied with a cloth or brush lifts build-up effectively.
  • Locker Rooms & Benches - Used in gyms, schools, or staff areas, Jif refreshes surfaces exposed to sweat and heavy use, ideal as a dependable bathroom cleaner.

These are just a few of the places where Jif delivers exceptional results. But what really makes it a go-to product for facilities teams and commercial cleaners?
