Cleaning shower doors

Morning ya'll! I hope this week finds everyone happy and healthy. Here are a few cleaning tips to try the next time you go in to tackle the job of cleaning the bathroom. Personally, I hate trying to clean the shower. We have a big garden tub so they gave us this little square shower in the corner. When I'm cleaning the door it is hanging open, over the carpet, and cleaning goo just drips all over the floor.

Of course, I could always stand inside the shower, with the door closed, to clean it. Except then I am stuck inside this 30" x 30" space with cleaning fumes. It is very claustrophobic and I cough continuously from the odor of the cleaning supplies. Ick! Besides, just one or two showers later and the door is all cloudy with gunk again. Anyway, here are some tips for trying to get those shower doors all sparkly clean.

To clean shower doors...

1)Try using Resolve® carpet cleaner on clear shower doors to remove soap scum. (I've heard this is suppose to work well.)

2) Make ammonia solution of 1/2 C. ammonia in 1 gal. water. Pour solution into a spray bottle. Spray the shower door. Use a sponge or stiff bristle brush to scrub. Rinse well.
Warning: Keep room well ventilated while working! Ammonia can irritate your skin, so wear gloves while cleaning with this solution. Ammonia and bleach form a toxic gas when mixed together. Do NOT mix the two cleaners!

3) Vinegar works well on soap scum, especially hot vinegar. Try heating up vinegar in the microwave, clean the microwave (as the vinegar will have loosened any stuck on food) and take the vinegar to the bathroom to clean the soap scum from the shower curtain and walls.

Don't forget, if you have a cleaning tip or a cleaning brand that works great for you, be sure to leave a comment and let everyone else know. Thanks!

BTW, I made a post, not too long ago, about cleaning your fridge with a half & half mixture of warm water and white vinegar. When Rylie and I cleaned out the fride a few weeks ago we used that mixture and it worked really great. I think it even helped with that "fridge" odor.

Have a great day.
Hugs,
Jill Marie

I'm the kind of guy who passions to try new things. Presently I'm making my personal solar panels. I'm managing it all alone without the assistance of my staff. I am using the internet as the only way to acheive this. I ran across a truly awesome site which explains how to contruct photovoltaic panels and so on. The internet site explains all the steps required to solar panel construction.

I'm not really sure about how precise the information given there iz. If some experts over here who had xp with these works can have a look and give your feedback in the page it will be awesome and I'd highly value it, cause I extremely passion solar panel construction.

Tnx for reading this. U people are the best.
