We have always had tile and a clear glass shower door. Both my husband and I use a squeegee after every shower. Never have a problem with soap scum. My shower looks just like new because we both take good care to squeegee after every shower. I have not had any problems for 12 years. Shower still looks like new.

Great vlog Melissa. I’ve had a squeegee in our shower forever and it takes a few seconds to wipe down the glass and walls. I’ve never had to scrub/ spend lots of time cleaning this as a result. We also have a built in water softener which means there’s no hard water / limescale build up as a result which also helps. They are an investment but worth it if you live in a hard water area

This is just fantastic... WhiteVinegar&DishSoap = completely soap-scum-free glass doors AT LAST : I've tolerated the last four years with so-so clear glass door and screen. I sprayed, left it for 15 minutes, spread the mixture around lightly with a household sponge and rinsed the lot off. What surprised me was that the process didn't generate a never-ending load of soap suds to wash away from so much dish soap [washing-up liquid, as we say in the UK!]. It was so easy! Now, the glasswork is just like the day the new shower area was installed. Brilliant - very many thanks.

For some time, due to mental health and physical constraints, my shower wasn't cleaned as regularly as it should have been. I then began using a squeegy but could not bend or squat properly to doe the floor so I switched to using a towel which seemed to work but I still have an issue with bending etc. I then found a small head mop with extending handle and microfibre removable pad and that has been a game changer. I don't have to bend and just squeeze out the pad, using a second one if necessary and reuse them a few times before machine washing. The glass and tiles are cleaned without effort. I do have some permanent hard water stains on the glass but it is clean which is the main thing.

It has a hook on the end, so I hang it on the bar soap holder attached to the shower system. My mom kept telling me I had to dry the shower every time with a towel, so instead I got the squeegee. Less work with a squeegee, don't have to rub another load of laundry! Takes 30-45 seconds with the squeegee, and I get some squat exercises in!! I'll try your vinegar and dish soap recipe to clean any soap scum that sneaks in. Iike the idea of baking soda and dishsoap for my tile floor because it's glazed. What say you? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for this! I have a rental house that we are moving into and the tub was so gross. Fiberglass surround from the 80's and a porcelain tub that is still in good shape but filthy. I had to use a razor blade to scrape the soap scum off in sheets. It was like I was shaving a bar of soap! After this, still soap scum left, so I tried the dish soap/baking soda and it made a big difference! Moreso than CLR or even toilet bowl cleaner I had previously tried.

I have a wipe-down towel I wipe everything down with after each shower. Wash it with the other towels. I haven't had to scrub down shower in over 4 years. It was too much grief to replace the shower, I didn't want to mess around moving forward. I have no glass though, might not do as well as a squeegee on glass, but I think it would be drier. Maybe squeegee on glass, towel for non-glass areas for best results.

Every member of my family have to squidgee and paper towel the walls and squidgee only the floor after showering. This will prevent mould build up too. Soap scum still forms on the bottom of the glass over time so I use an Australian product called Mr Sheen for glass, wood surfaces etc. Leave it on for about half an hour then wipe down with a micro fibre cloth then rinse and squidgee. It’s perfect.

Our rule is to squeeze or dry the shower after every use. I then scrub every few days - at least once a week with vinegar and dish soap mixture. I use a dish scrubber that allows the mixture in the handle, dedicated to the shower. Just easier for me than another spray bottle. I also work on the glass shower door every six months car windshield stuff designed to make rain run off quickly. Seems to help with the glass.

The glass manufacturer added a coating and I can’t use a squeegee or it could scratch it and void the warranty. So we use a squeegee on the tile and microfiber cloth on the glass. I also thoroughly dry the faucet and all metal. It’s been 9 months and it looks like new. I never imagined I would stick with this routine, but it takes about two minutes and saves me so much more in depth cleaning time-it’s been worth it!! Also, I’m almost dry when I finish, so almost no water outside the shower! 😊

@@creuvette29 no, it can’t because the ph is so different. White vinegar has a ph of 2.4 (very acidic) and rubbing alcohol is neutral, somewhere between 6 and 8 (water is neutral at 7). Then consider that more than half the solution is water (neutral) and the Sal Suds is quite alkaline which will bring the final product into the alkaline territory, which is what (unsealed) grout likes.

There you are, I hardly get notices of new videos anymore, miss you and your wonderful remedies. QUESTION: do you have a solution for dried hard on water spots on windshields and kitchen counter tops? I wipe my tiles constantly but if I miss some and it dries it leaves a circle line that won't come off. I have tried everything I can think of and no success. I would be soooooo grateful, yes, I have hard water. I live in Mexico we don't have glass showers, all tile. But we do have hard water issues with the tiling.

I hear you talking about the stronger strength vinegar can you use this on tiling too? I used regular vinegar didn't even touch it on my tiling, at all. Will higher strength eat the surface? I have a strong vinegar, but I think it is more than 10. My car windshields are a mess, I am sad. Just happened.

What is the best way to clean a jetted Jacuzzi tub? We are in our late 60's and early 70's and don't use the jetted Jacuzzi tub, but we do take showers in the same area. Problem is, the jets collect soap scum and have that orange and sometimes black mold growing in the jet alcoves. Our housekeeper doesn't do a very good job of cleaning them, it seems.

Soap dissolves grease and oil. Soap scum is none of those. The only thing that dishsoap does is create a thicker viscosity for the vinegar to adhere longer. Why people use soap to dissolve soap boggles my mind. If you have faucets that are encrusted with soap scum, saturate strips of paper towels and let sit on the bad areas for half an hour to an hour. The soap scum will come right off. I spray my shower walls with vinegar and then mix salt, baking soda, and a small amount of water to form a paste. Then I scrub it off in a circular motion and rinse. We squeegee our glass shower doors every day, which helps them stay clean and clear. But to deep clean the rest, I use the method above - no dish soap! Also, using shower gel is better than a soap bar for preventing soap scum.

I squeegee my shower after every shower. I haven’t had to scrub it at all. I notice the spots around the handle that I can’t get to are the only spots that have soap scum

I have a clear glass brand new shower door. The squeegee method is great in principle,, but there's a bar in the middle of each panel which makes the squeegee method kind of disjointed. I cannot make smooth passes all the way to the bottom of the door, which is annoying...

I have a very small amount of rust around the drain in my bathroom sink and on the shower drain cover. I am not comfortable using harsh chemicals. Would rather use DIY. Any ideas? No I don’t like to clean my shower/tub! Would rather vacuum and mop with microfiber cloth mop. Nice watch!!!

I use a squeegee after every shower. The doors and the walls, and then squeegee the floor directing the water to the drain.

In general, abrasive things are not good for glass, as they can scratch. Eraser sponges are all at least somewhat abrasive iirc, and some of them even have extra-abrasive sides. That's not to say you can't use ANYTHING abrasive on glass, just that you should test in a hidden area first to make absolutely certain it is not damaging it.

How often do I clean my shower? Well we bought the place in '89, so I guess I'd say once every 34 years.

The problem with the squeegee is you need to do that right after showering with the water off, so you're standing there for a few minutes naked, and cold cleaning the glass. Honestly, I hate it, I sometimes do clean the glass that way, but it's a pain. I would love to have a walk in tiled shower enclosed, like you walk in turn the corner, and shower, no glass doors, but I can't afford the remodel.
