I use CLR cleaner. We also use a weegee after we shower. This helps keep the scrum from forming. After I clean it well, I apply Car or Boat wax. This helps the water to repel. Good luck and don't let it get away from you after you get it cleaned

Have you tried "The Works Tub & Shower". Need a little elbow grease with this; but we helped friends move. Cleaned their new bathroom. As The Works slid down the walls, you could actually see the soap scum disappear!

Am I the only one who uses Arm and Hammer Scrub Free with Oxy on shower and sink? Spray, leave on, quick wipe, spray rinse with handheld shower spray, done! Loved it for years more than any other similar other product.

I live in central Florida and we have a lot of limestone here plus mildew due to humidity so I was always scrubbing. I installed a shower curtain with the rod across the door. When showering I pull the curtain across the shower door so it doesn't get wet. I also keep a chamois-type cloth (like the ones you use on cars) in the shower. After a shower I take a minute to rub down the walls and fixtures. Seldom have to scrub now.

Orange juice. Sounds crazy but if you get the cheapest OJ the kind not in the frige section. Put it in a spray bottle and spay it on a let it sit it then rinse off. . I had a problem with hard water and then one day there was rust in the water that turned the tub orange. The water company as going to replace the tub. I don't know why I decided to dump an expired bottle of OJ in the tub but I did and it cleaned the entire thing no hard water build up and no rust. The tub never had to be replaced.
