1 Sammy  · DO NOT BUY IT DOES NOT GET OF. Soap SCRUM ON SHOWER IN ANY WAY
5 reviewer2232  · It worked for me. I had red lichen on my fascia boards and tank stand at my farm. I sprayed it on and left it for a few months. It killed the lichen.
2 Ian Brown  · Unimpressed – Followed instructions - used a slightly stronger mix but ever so slightly… No change at all to the concrete lichen marks. Waste of money
1 sufiom  · Walk away – Yes I use 30 second product. I sprey and walkaway . Come back after 4days camping and still my driveway dirty. Not good product.
1 crankyolfart  · This cleaner is a waste of time and money – Does not do what it is supposed to. Absolute rubbish. House hold bleach can do a better job at a lot less cost.

This stuff is amazing. I was baulking at cleaning my shower ...picked this up at Bunnings today...went home and sprayed the whole shower recess. No scrubbing...just a wipe over with a microfibre cloth. The glass came up so well I used it on the outside of my sliding doors....same result....spray on....hose off! I have found my miracle cleaner. Show details

I have been trying for some time to find a descent product to clean the scum off.the shower screens with no success so I was in bunnings and thought I would give this a try. It just amazes me that I cannot find a product that will do what it's supposed to do when following directions carefully. This is another such product. I am sure bunnings… Read more

and the manufacturer are happy but as a consumer I certainly am not. Extremely dissapointing and a complete waste of my time and money.

I found this bathroom floor spray fantastic, it lasts for a long time and has instant results. Ever since I couldn't use the Exit mould because of the badly designed spray bottle I have been using 30 Second mould spray from Bunnings and I. Love it.

I purchased this so called 30 second shower cleaner, claims spray and walk away no scrubbing required, I am a very clean person so just had a small amount of scale to clean but still had to use my long handled scrubbing brush for this and it took several attempts with a lot of elbow grease to remove it, as for the price at around $15.50 AUD… Read more

seriously over priced a slightly larger bottle but no more effective than the no frills green cleaner at around $3 AUD, very disappointing I certainly will not be washing my money on a second bottle of this over rated product with its false claims.

30 seconds shower spray – Fantastic product, only sprayed on a few times, all soap scum was gone. Only left on for a couple of minutes. Just spray on and leave. Show details

Results take a while – I Have used this product on several roofs. It takes some days to kill the lichen, and months for rain to erode the lichen and moss, but results are long lasting. An example is in the photo where the left side has been treated a year ago, and the right side left untreated. Other photos show a roof area around a skylight, 1 month then 10 months… Read more

apart. Application was done with a 5 litre garden sprayer at the standard dilution. I was very surprised at the results after one winter. No re spray was done but it looks like the ridges of the tiles were the only spots that needed a slight re do. Would certainly use the product again.

Does what it says – Had tough green algae on slate retaining wall (see photo 1). Tried water blasting and using vinegar solution and it wouldn't budge. Used 30 seconds spray and walk away knowing results are not immediate. Sure enough after 10 days it turned black (photo 2) and was fading. 4-5 weeks later slate wall looks brand new (photo 3). Key to this is patience. It does work.  Show details

You do need patience! I am in my 70's, and no longer able to climb onto our roof, which heavily marked with lichen. Bought a power sprayer, sprayed the tin roof from a ladder, and six months later it's clean as a whistle! Would use it again without any hesitation. Show details

I absolutely love this stuff. It keeps my glass shower walls pristine – But I use it slightly differently to the instructions. When I finish my shower, I then spray every inch of the glass with this cleaner and leave it on until my next shower when I wash it off with the shower head at the end of my shower. No scrubbing whatsoever, and I never have any watermarks on the glass in my shower. Show details

Great product – Great product.. had a very slippery wooden deck and now back to non slip. Sprayed two days ago and excellent results. Like the realistic good value price and that it is available across range of stores rather than very expensive franchise’s. Good to use a product that does what the marketing says it will. Show details

Front label does not reflect what the directions say. The "30 seconds" is a brand name and not a usage direction. the "no scrub" and the "spray and walk away" on the front label do not reflect the full instructions which states scrubbing may be required and the fact that you cannot just walk away and do nothing else. Should be illegal to use "30 seconds" as a brand name when it does not reflect the directions. Show details

This was completely useless. I followed the instructions and waited for weeks, with no visible difference at all. Then I tried it at full concentration on a small spot where it would be obvious if it did anything at all. Nothing, absolutely nothing. Could as well have used water. Show details

personally one of the poorest products I’ve used not that I use many for the shower but I happen to pick this one up to give it a go waste of time. You have to pump the trigger until your hand cramps to get some of product out of the bottle, I unscrewed the cap and poured it on the surface. I wanted to use it on. There are much better product out… Read more

there. I would name the one that is excellent only I can’t remember its name. I only know it by looking at it on the shelf. I disgrace.

Absolute Rubbish – Absolute waste of money. Wet'n'Forget leaves this stuff for dead. It actually works where Spray & Walk Away doesn't. Waste of money. Funny how they have to advertise that product sooooo much.

Meh – Applied to my roof about 2-3 weeks ago. Followed the directions...exactly. No change in the dark black mold that has gathered on my asphalt roof tiles. Not impressed! Show details

Very disappointed – I did exactly per instructions for my concrete path and even after a few days it made no difference. Would never buy this or other products now from this company. Better to use a bottle of bleach or something else. Show details

Very disappointing – My concrete paths were covered in green and black algae I followed the instructions to a tee scrubbed very hard and repeated the process, not much came off. Even after using the high pressure washer the only result was from the water jet not this product. So disappointed I even used it neat straight from the bottle, still no positive result, I… Read more

believe it’s just liquid chlorine which I could get from my pool shop a lot cheaper, would NOT buy again, waste of money

Very disappointed – I bought 30 seconds Shower Cleaner from Bunnings to clean my tiled shower recess. I followed the instructions carefully, but the result was terrible. When the tiles dried, they had a white streaky residue on them - they looked far worse than before I used this product. It has taken a lot of scrubbing to remove the white streaks. Show details

Did exactly what it promised – I have a small paved sunken courtyard that doesn't get heaps of sun in winter, so the dreaded green sludge starts growing on the pavers, making them look bad and feel slimy underfoot. I then try and wash it off with a cheap pressure washer, which never works that well and takes a lot of effort. One application of this a week ago, lightly… Read more

scrubbing into the pavers with a broom as I didn't have a spray bottle, and my pavers are back to looking the same colour they were when I moved in. Amazing. As others have said, you have to wait a little for the result, when I first applied there was no difference, but gradually over a week it improved, and then we had some rain which washed the sludge residue away and after that it was all clean. Wish I knew about this product three years ago when I moved in, no more pressure washing in freezing winters for me...

Would give it 10 stars if I could – Have been using this product over last couple of years. It does take time I would say more than most people would allow for it to do its thing, and for tough jobs probably a few treatments. This stuff is amazing on concrete and marble ie headstones. Cant speak highly enough about it. If you you want fast results try something else. Show details

Really disappointed – We have a black shower and it was getting very soap stained - used 30s shower product and it removed the scum on the sides of the shower but I'm now left with a mass of white stuff on the floor of the shower that simply won't budge. Our second shower has concrete tiles - I sprayed the grout will the 30s cleaner and am now left with white streaks… Read more

all over the concrete tiles which I simply can't remove. Both showers look awful - this has put me off using any other 30s products for sure

Not the same – Have had a 5L of concentrate for some years that worked well. 4 to 1 mix, makes 25L. Bought a new 5L concentrate and found it is 1 to 1 mix and does not work as we. Active ingredient has changed. Not good!

I returned it – I cleaned half my shower with the 30 second shower spray and followed the u tube and product instructions. Water beading was worse and no difference in the cleanliness. I returned the product and there was no hesitation with a refund. Disappointed.  Show details

Pretty useless – Didn't make difference after a month or two. I sprayed my pavers with weed killer as I know that works. I wouldn't buy this again on special or not. Save your money too
