Cleaning dirty shower, tiles and acrylic glass

I've scrubbed the tiles and glass doors of the shower with one of those net body scrubbers and shampoo before I get out of the shower, then rinse and it seems to work. I thought if it's ok for my hair it can't be that toxic and it seems to work.

DH did take the doors off a while ago and they had a thorough scrub but it was quite a task.

Thats the way to go, Callistemon, clean as you go along and not let it build up! Actually its less than it might be as I take advantage of the gym showers as much as possible.

Well, I haven't done it as often lately, feeling guilty now.

Perhaps tomorrow 😁 🚿

I find this shifts soap scum build up, not the spray version, has to be this one. Squirt it around the area that's grubby then get to wotlek with a cloth

Have you tried a steam cleaner? I find that a very good way of cleaning tile grout.

After you've sorted it. Hang squeegee in there and wipe the shower down after use. That and a weekly de-grease will keep it good.

If the screen is plastic as you say you'll need to be very careful using anything even slightly abrasive as you will either scratch or cause even more dullness on the surface. Try squirting washing up liquid on a microfible clith and rubbing the screen down. Then rinse thoroughly using shower head. Dry with euther a window cleaning rubber or another microfibre cloth. For mould there are masses of mould removers on market. If they don't work the grouting may need redoing. Grouting being porous can turn dark even with water when needing replaced.

Cillitt Bang and Barman’s friend which I get from Lakeland works for me.

HG cleaner is fantastic and really easy to use.

I sluice the walls and screen down after every use them mop up with micro cloth.

I use, and very highly recommend, Cif Power & Shine Bathroom reusable bottle for life. You just squirt it on after every shower (fine for any surface) and it works a treat - no scrubbing off or wiping down. Refills are available online too. Good luck!

Also found that an old electric toothbrush is useful for cleaning corners around showers.
Cif cream is gentle enough not to damage the silicone sealer used.

I have a water softener and only use a squeegee for shower door and panelled walls. CIF for tray. No tiles.

I like good old Vim. It needs good rinsing afterwards, but I find it the best.

I'm sure that Vim would scratch the plastic glass, perhaps try it on a less obvious bit.

Bicarb and vinegar worked on our mock glass

Yes, we have a water softener too and the shower stays reasonably clean though soap and conditioners can clog up the grout and the edge of the frame if you don't do it regularly.
I'd say that something a bit abrasive on the grout would be good, Lakeland sell all sorts of products like this and their Customer Service people offer good advice.
The acrylic glass is another matter, it's so easy to scratch and can become cloudy too as it ages. Personally I'd be tempted to save up to replace it with a glass shower if it looks bad, it's so much easier to clean.

I recently made up nancy birtwhistle pure magic solution worked brilliantly inexpensive and doing a bit to be eco friendly I looked her up on you tube

Limescale is a pest, but a mixture of two parts salts of lemon to three parts washing-up liquid of whatever brand you use, dissolved in a kettleful boiling water, then the bucket topped up with cold water, works well on bathroom tiles and basins, and on glass, although the toilet bowl may need to be left to steep for a couple of hours ,or so.

Use the upstairs one when cleaning the downstairs one, and vice versa, or the garden!

I would be very cautious about using this mixture on perspex or any form of plastic. I have no idea if it damages these surfaces, but I suspect it does.

A glass sided shower cabinet is the sort of thing that should be dried every time it has been used. Good luck getting the rest of the household to do so! This is really best with tiles too, but none of us bother, do we?

Depending on how hard your water is and how often and for how long you shower, you may need to clean it weekly or once a month if the job is not to be too arduous.

The mixture I recommend must NEVER be used on marble or terasso, as it most certainly will damage these surfaces.

I have a window wiper blade which I use around the shower to dry the walls then I use a dry cloth to wipe the sealant. less than a minute of effort .We have the plastic wall covering, not tiles. It was installed over 5 years ago and there is no sign of mould on the sealant. Prevention is better than cure ,especially for a lazy person like me.

I just love my Vim, I couldn't survive without it!

where do you buy vim I thought they had stopped producing it, I used to love it for sinks

Another vote for Viakal
So quick, effective and smells lovely

I don’t wear gloves or a mask though

Have you tired bar keepers friend? ( The powdered one) . Don’t buy it on amazon though as it cost a lot on there but it is 1.99 in Savers.
I always clean mine after every use but my daughter doesn’t and I used this last time she asked me to sort it out for her. She actually commented and asked me if I had it retiled while she was away.
