Mr. Clean Unretires and Launches New Innovation to Tackle Messes

The biggest Magic Eraser upgrade in 20 years – plus the new Shower & Tub Scrubber for America’s toughest clean

CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Mr. Clean steps out of retirement - newly inspired, freshly energized, and ready to reveal the biggest innovation of his legendary career.

“Legacies last forever, and Mr. Clean’s was nowhere near finished. We’re thrilled he’s back, because there’s a whole lot of magic in the new product lineup and there is no one we’d rather partner with than the legend himself," said Dave Landers, Vice President, North America Surface Care, Procter & Gamble.

During his retirement, Mr. Clean did anything but take it easy, and he shared every moment of it on his social feeds. Mr. Clean competed in athletic events, pampered himself in the bathroom, and strolled beaches like a man on a mission. Every one of those hobbies sparked inspiration for something big: tougher Magic Erasers, a better way to clean showers and tubs, and a lineup of scents that smell like he bottled his beach vacations.

“Today, I’m proud to share that I’m back,” said Mr. Clean, the larger‑than‑life cleaning icon. “I tried to stay retired, but the ideas got too big. The magic of cleaning called me back.”

The Mr. Clean innovation includes: the biggest upgrade to Magic Eraser in 20 years, the new Shower & Tub Scrubber, and new scents for the Multi-Purpose Cleaner line-up.

Its 360-degree pivoting head allows users to effortlessly cut through soap scum and grime – even in hard-to-reach areas – leaving buildup with nowhere to hide.
