Cleaning the shower glass

JimO from Torbay in Auckland asks, “I know its and old problem but I’m desperate to find a ‘cure-all’ for cleaning the shower glass. I’ve tried the commercial ones, even tried straight meths and Sugar Soap. None have got the ingrained soap/water marks off. Anyone else had this problem?”

    CatherineB from Auckland says, “We have found that Chemco with a Silver Lady cloth works wonders on shower glass. It’s not that expensive and Chemco lasts for a long time.”

    Kirsty from Southland has this tip. “Heat a cup of vinegar in the microwave until hot (not boiling) put in an empty spray bottle and add 1/2 – 1 cup of dish soap and shake gently to mix. Spray all over the shower glass, walls, wherever hard-to-remove soap scum and water marks are. Leave for as long as possible – preferably overnight, but an hour or so will do at a pinch. Scrub gently with a non-scratch scourer then rinse off.”

    PB from Auckland writes, “To make a good general purpose cleaner, that would probably help with cleaning shower glass, take a spray bottle, put into it 50 ml dishwashing liquid, 100 ml lemon juice and fill with white vinegar. Shake well and spray on liberally. Let stand for a few minutes and clean off. Ingrained dirt may require scrubbing.”
