I have been trying to find this cleaner since living in Birmingham, Alabama. I had found it at Dollar General stores and now they no longer sell this cleaner. It was my favorite for years.

There is a story about Top Job Cleaner posted on the world wide web back in 1994 that that states Top Job cleaner was green in color, and contained ammonia. I would assume it is no longer available as the article stated that Proctor&Gamble was "merging" it with Mr. Clean products. My suggestion is you try Fabuloso Ammonia. It is scented, and smells slightly better than plain ammonia. Ammonia stinks like crazy, but also is one of the best cleaners there is. Here is the link to that article: www.nytimes.com/

I cannot find Top Job anywhere. I cannot find it in any store. Where can I purchase it? If not in store can I order on line because I have a cleaning business and like this product very much. My mom used it when I was a kid. Please let me know where or if I can order on line. My location is Holland, PA

I have some luck at the Dollar Stores .You might also try a product called Awesome. It is a very good all-purpose cleaner.
I am unable to find the Top Job cleaning product in my local grocery store. I would appreciate any information you can send me. My location is the Largo, FL area. Thank you.

I believe Mr. Clean and Top Job product have been combined. Look for a Mr. Clean product that is similar to Top Job. I used to use Top Job for everything, but no longer can find it. I believe this was related to some kind of buy out between companies. Charlene
This was in the NY Times...THE MEDIA BUSINESS: Advertising; Mopping up a poor performer, Procter & Gamble merges Top Job into its Mr. Clean brand.
I was looking for Top Job, too. Thank you
No mr. Clean is nothing like top job top job is the best that you could ever buy and as far as mr. Clean goes it smells like dog piss
Top Job was the best to use washing a vehicle. Better shine than any car wash cleaner!
Where can I purchase Top Job basic cleaner and degreaser?
Walmart is out of stock: www.walmart.com/
I think they may have stopped making it.
You can do a home made cleaner with water, vinegar and a little Dawn dish soap. Put it in a bottle, shake well, use like you would top job.
I don't measure...but use twice as much water a vinegar and a few squirts of Dawn
If you need more grease cutting, add more Dawn.
Jet.com has it, but it is out of stock at the moment. jet.com/
Ebay has right now!!!! You can buy by the case or singe gallon bottle, also at Walmart and often shipping is FREE!
Hi again. I just got off the phone with the KIK company that makes this product--or made it. They discontinued it in January 2019. So sad. The lovely gal I spoke to said they have a new version that is comparable called Greased Lightening that should be in the US and Canada in Target stores and some Wal-Marts.
What happened to Top Job cleaner?

The last time I saw it in our are (LA) was at a Dollar Tree type store.

I am also fruitlessly looking for Top Job. I have tried all the other cleaners and none are as good as Top Job (no it's not Quick Job I'm talking about).
I used to use Top Job floor cleaner all the time on my kitchen floors. I can't seem to find it anywhere! Does any one know who has it? i even went to their website they were no help!
