    Default Need tips to clean tub and shower

    I have tried several different cleaners but I just can't seem to find one that really cleans the soap scum off my tub and shower. If anyone has any thoughts or tips, I would love to hear them. I'm sure there may be others, too, who could use this information. Thank you in advance.

    Me too! Some of the ones I tried just about killed my lungs with the fumes.

    I vote for scrubbing bubbles, too. also, it comes in a pump spray bottle.

    I just use liquid dish soap and a scrub brush. When everything is clean, I give the fiberglass tub and doors a wipe with Nuvinyl as it keeps it clean a lot longer.

    I've found that the cleaners that have Oxy in the name work well for me.

    Mr Clean Magic Erasers with any cleaner works wonders for me! I generally use vinegar and blue Dawn mixed toether for everything. I have used the generic magic erasers too and they work.

    well once you do get it clean, try 'Wet & Forget", I found it at Lowes & I love it! Really helps keep my showers clean. I also have a 'designated' toilet brush, when I scrub the bath & shower, saves my back!!

    This is what I use and if it's difficult to get down to scrub the bottom or get a small mop specifically for this purpose only like a microfiber. It's hard for me to get down on the knees. This little mop works great.

    No matter what I use and no matter the room, if I'm able, I open a window so it can get some fresh air also. Just really makes a difference.
