Washing Dishes the Gritz Way: A Sparkling Clean Every Time!

Step 1: Prep and Sort

Before you even turn on the faucet, take a moment to prep:
✅ Scrape off excess food into the trash or compost bin.
✅ Stack similar items together—glasses, plates, utensils—to streamline the process.
✅ Soak pots and pans with stubborn grease or dried food to make scrubbing easier.

Step 2: Use the Right Tools & Products

Choosing the right cleaning products is key. At Gritz, we recommend:
🧼 Eco-friendly dish soap that cuts grease without harsh chemicals.
🧽 A non-abrasive sponge or brush to prevent scratches on delicate dishes.
💦 Warm water to help break down oils and food particles effectively.

Step 3: Wash in the Right Order

To keep the water as clean as possible, always wash in this order:
1️⃣ Glasses and cups first (to keep them sparkling and prevent greasy residue).
2️⃣ Plates and bowls next, since they typically have light food residue.
3️⃣ Utensils go in after plates, ensuring they’re fully sanitized.
4️⃣ Pots, pans, and baking dishes last—by now, any stubborn grease should be easier to remove.

Step 4: Rinse & Dry Properly

🚰 Rinse with warm water to remove all soap and residue.
🫧 Air-dry on a dish rack for a spotless finish or use a clean, lint-free towel for immediate drying.
