Actor House Peters Jr., who gained fame as ‘Mr. Clean’ in Proctor & Gamble ads throughout dozens of years, has passed away in Los Angeles at the age of 92.

Peters died of pneumonia at the Motion Picture and Television Fund Hospital in Los Angeles, said his son, Jon Peters.

The elder Peters’ most memorable role came as Mr. Clean — a muscular man with a bald head, a hoop earring and a no-nonsense attitude toward dirt and grime. From the late 1950s and into the early 1960s, Peters Jr. helped advertise the famous household cleaner with the trademark jingle, “Mr. Clean, Mr. Clean.”

Peters Jr. played many supporting roles through his career, including working with Roy Rogers and Gene Autry on their television shows. He also appeared in “Perry Mason,” “Gunsmoke,” “The Twilight Zone” and “Lassie.”

Peters was often the bad, brawny guy as an actor.  He grew up in Hollywood, the son of acting parents.  His father, House Peters Sr., has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
