How This Product Could Be Improved Upon
Several years ago I noticed lemon-scented Bar Keepers Friend, and I purchased this product. I liked the new scent, but I can no longer find lemon-scented Bar Keepers Friend. I would like to see Bar Keepers Friend available in a couple of different scents. This product currently has no scent, and adding a fresh clean scent would make this rust removing cleanser even more appealing to those who want an effective rust removal product.
