Answer 4

I make a homemade shower-cleaning mixture: You'll need 1 cup of vinegar, 1/2 cup baking soda, 1 cup ammonia, and a gallon and a half of hot water. Apply to the walls of your shower. (You may need rubber gloves) Use a sponge to scrub well and rinse with hot water.  I also keep a spray bottle in the shower and give it a quick spray each day to keep the soap scum from forming.  This makes the real cleaning on the weekend much easier.

Answer 5

Are you talking about soap scum from your bathtub?  I have tried everything but I like Tilex cleaner the best! Make sure you read the directions before using!!!!  I have heard that using ammonia cleans soap scum and make sure you don`t breathe too much of the fumes..open the bathroom window...after you clean your tub, sink, or shower...wipe down the walls and bottom and then apply furniture polish to the area.  This will help you to eliminate soap scum. Don`t get the bathroom tub too oily as you may slip and hurt yourself.  It is a good idea to also wipe down the walls and bottom of the shower or tub everytime you shower or when you use the bathtub..This will cut down the soap scum!!!

Answer 6

The Magic Eraser by Mr. Clean

Answer 7

good old fashioned elbow grease

Answer 8

Get the quart sized bottle of "Greased Lightening" and use one of those sponges with the green "scrubber" type back. This product is available at most supermarkets, WalMart, Home Depot, Lowes, etc. Great stuff.....I use it for all tough cleaning jobs.

Answer 9

BarKeeper's Friend & Zud. Allow cleaner & water paste to set to dissolve minerals and scum. Rub off with damp cloth. Repeat applications may be necessary for severe buildup. For a little extra action that will not harm fiberglass, is the pink & white ScotchBrite pad to facilitate removal.
