What is the best cleaner for removing soap scum for a fiberglass shower & tub?

Question

I have tried several of the off the shelf common cleaners. Have any idea?

Answer 1

comet and a brillo pad

Answer 2

Magic Eraser by Mr. Clean. I was skeptical when I first started using the product and now I won't live without it. It takes absolutely no scrubbing. Recently, I was hired to clean someone's house (as college student makes money any way possible). This person's tub had not been cleaned for LITERALLY 6 years. It was disgusting. I gagged frequently. But it took absolutely no scrubbing to remove 97% of the stains. I just went over the area. Rinsed frequently. I now use the product for everything -- wood work, scrubbing corners (where my mops do not reach), and any textured surface. It's incredible on textured and smooth surfaces. I now buy one for the entire family.

You do not want to use anything abrasive on fiberglass or enamel. Here is a safe formula that works unbelievably well and easy, with hardly any work on your part. It will not hurt the finish. Mix a thhick paste of baking soda and vinegar (it will bubble like crazy), then paint it on the areas to be cleaned. Let it sit for awhile. Using a sponge with the scrubby on one side (it's gotta be non-metal scrubby) simply give a little scrub and then rinse. It will sparkle like new.

Answer 4

I use a spray called Scrub Free with Oxy-just spray it on, let sit for a few minutes, and wipe. It works great-I live in an area with very hard water and it not only removes the soap scum but the hard water stains as well.

Answer 5

I have the thing but i don't remember the name. I don't have the problem in my new home so I don't have any. Anyway, go to a boat store and buy the cleaner that cleans the outside of fiberglass boats, works like a charm. Ace hardware handled in my town before I moved. Makes sense, doesn't it? Try it, it will work with no scrubbing!!

Check out some non abrasive cleaners. On my site http://www.exquisite-bathroom-vessel-sinks.com/care_and_cleaning_vessel_sinks.html I've listed some for various materials that may help. And if you're wanting something a bit more 'green', there is info as well. Good luck!

I use that new foaming soft scrub. You spray it on and let it sit a bit and then wash it off. Also I use this shower spray from Mr. Clean. Yo ujust spray it after each bath or shower and I swear to you it keeps your tub and tiles clean for long periods of time. Hope that helps :)
