It is a great cleaning product because it keeps a scrubbing power without being abrasive, so it won't harm any finishes. I've never heard of using it on your skin, but I have heard it is a nice water softner so you can add some to your bath water for a soak. Here's a great website: www.about.com In the search box, put baking soda and there is also a link for vinegar. You can learn all about the uses for these products and combining them for some different types of cleaning recipes. Enjoy!
