how if possable can you machine wash shower curtains?

Answer 1

Sure, I've washed vinyl and cloth shower curtains - use a non-chlorine bleach and throw a couple of towels in with the curtain for scrubbing action. You can toss it it the dryer for a couple of minutes to loosen up any wrinkles.

Answer 2

I've seen this recommended in Woman's Day or some magazine like that. They said to put plastic shower curtains in your washing machine with a little soap and some bath towels. I think the plush of the bath towels were to help it get clean.

Answer 3

most shower curtains can be machine washed. read the back of the tag on the curtains and follow the directions

Answer 4

Yes and no. If it's a cheap thing, no, I'd wash it in the tub. If sturdy, then yes, wash in washing machine. Usually that's sufficient. If you still look a bit scumy after, run thru again with vinegar.

Answer 5

Wash them in the gentle cycle with bleach or soak them in the bathtub with bleach. Only a little soap, Dawn is the best. If there is mildew, the bleach will take it right off. If it's limescale, add a little CLR to the load

Answer 6

Use the delicate cycle of your washing machine, but use a strong detergent.

Answer 7

if there is are plastic- wash them in a basin or laundry tub with cleaning soap/warm water and hang to dry. if fabric- put them in a delicates bag with holes in it and wash on gentle cycle/ tumble dry low.

Answer 8

I just take it down and throw it in the washer. Even the cheap plastic ones come clean for me.

Answer 9

yeah it's possible, just throw it in the wash, but I'd use cold water for sure, and if it's a cheap 2.00 job, just toss it and get a new one! happy cleaning

Answer 10
