Has anyone here used those Mr. Clean Magic Erasers or other brands of
no scratch cleaning pads? Basically they are pads of polypropylene and
the mark-up in price must be outragous. Recently I found a piece of
packing foam in a package for a mirror. I tried it out and it worked
as well as the Magic Eraser in cleaning my fiberglass bathtub. I went
out to the trash and got the rest of the packing foam. After using
them for a couple of weeks I can now say, I have enough cleaning pads
to last a year.

I've tried styrafoam and found it is messy and doesn't work. You
might have to buy one of the name brand foam pad to see what I'm
talking about to match it up to the right kind of packing foam.

Personally, I don't understand what is so difficult about something like
using baking soda on a damp sponge.
