Worked great for me. I’m 65 and lost my wife two years ago. Tried everything to keep the shower clean with little success…until now. She would be very happy. Not that I found this but that I didn’t give up until it was “her” type of clean. Thanks for the info!

[@sandysteinbrook]

Well, I just love hearing this story! I know you had to have smiled when you saw how clean it ended up being and knowing she would be standing there with her nod of approval. Thanks for sharing!

For 15 years I've been scrubbing the shower in the basement at my grandfather's house and it never gets clean and I've literally tried everything all the way down to engine cleaner. This actually worked it's finally clean.

[@sandysteinbrook]

That is so cool to hear! As you continue to clean with this solution it will continue to get cleaner and back to its original finish.

You have got to be kidding me. For 14 months I was trying to figure out how to get rid of the dark scummy buildup in my bathroom sink since I moved into my apartment. I did 2 parts vinegar and one part dawn. It took me less than 2 minutes to get my sink looking white as snow. You my dear are a life saver. Thankyou so much for posting this.

I am so glad this worked for you! Now you will be able to easily keep your sink clean.

Warm the vinegar you'll be amazed

[@BeachGal-mf9xd]

I've used this solution in the past and just forgot about how good it is. For months I've been staring at my scummy tub/shower combination and just dreading getting down on my hands and knees to scrub it. Just getting the energy to tackle the job was one thing, and I decided today was the day! First I tried Comet and the Pink Stuff but neither were doing a good job. I remembered my spray bottle of this solution and gave it a try. With minimal arm motion it was clean, white and sparkling again. Since I'm 76 I really don't enjoy "heavy" cleaning anymore so this has really helped me out. Thank you for sharing!

[@sandysteinbrook]

I am so glad you stumbled upon this video and remembered the Dawn and Vinegar solution! I am also glad it worked great for you too.

[@stephenspangler2790]

After months of my wife complaining that I wasn't getting the shower clean enough, I tried this DIY solution. Definitely works! I left it on for 5 minutes and some of the stubborn dirt that wouldn't come off with store bought cleaners easily wiped away. Looks ten times better! Thanks!

[@sandysteinbrook]

I am so glad you shared this! Thank you. Also for the tip to let it sit for 5 minutes on stubborn places.

Baking soda, vinegar and Dawn are my cleaners. Baking soda and vinegar for cleaning ovens is perfect. No chemicals and pretty easy to clean.

@Sherman Springfield I use all three together but mostly I make a paste with the baking soda and vinegar. I clean cookware. I use to to pass the kids plastic cups. Dawn is great to clean a tub. But google it. There's tons of cleaning ideas. I've cleaned baseboards and window tracks too.

[@ZombieslayerLeena]

Hi HeartofDixie, I was wondering what the baking soda does in your recipe. Does it act as a natural abrasive, or does it dissolve stains in some way? Im just wondering how it works. Thank you, I’m excited to try it!

[@ZombieslayerLeena]

@@heartofdixieprepping4797 I was super skeptical about the vinegar/dawn recipe nut it worked pretty good on my stand up shower. But not good enough! I’m hoping your recipe will be a home run. Ps, I sent you a question in the comment thread. :) thanks again! 🙏

[@magnoliajo696]

Thank you so much for posting this! We have a rental inspection coming up next week and I was dreading trying to get the shower and bathroom clean. You're right, it does work. I had both ingredients and used an old sponge (hand sponge) on walls and a bristle type plastic handle brush on the flooring... So far so good. And no lung damage from icky chemicals!!! What peace of mind. God bless you a hundred fold for passing on what you learned and spreading the blessing to others like me. 🙂

Thank you! I love to hear from people and their testimonials. Good luck on your inspection!

This made my shower glass doors *sparkly* clean thank you! There was MONTHS of cloudy build up on them cuz I was tired of spending a lot of money on Don Aslett Shower N Stuff (plus so many harsh chemicals I felt like I was gonna get cancer from it lol).

[@d.watson5412]

Thank you! I just mixed up this cleaner as you 'prescribed' and the shower stall and tub that would NOT come clean with 6 different cleaners plus a steam cleaner came clean with the Dawn & Vinegar! I am so grateful. I am cleaning a hoarders house. You can just imagine the unimaginable - a tub and shower used by 3 people who washed a husky and a german shepherd in it too; and never, ever, ever cleaned it in years. Nothing moved it before the dawn and vinegar. All I had to do was spray and leave it for about 3 minutes and it's coming right off. This really is a miracle cleaner. Thumbs up, subscribed and so grateul I will promise you my first born if you want him. LOL.

[@blake_229]

Works great for clothing stains too. Been using this for years. I call it Smurf juice.

[@sandysteinbrook]

Well, I just learned something new! Thank you!

[@Alan_Edwards]

I have been using this mixture for a few years now in my shower and it works great on soap scum, mold and mildew. Much better than the stronger store bought cleaners actually made to get rid of mold and mildew. The bottle I had lasted a few years so it has been a while since I needed to mix more up - had to come and find the correct ratio. I think before it was like 50/50. This mixture makes a lot more sense. Thanks

I was on a web page that listed a very cryptic why you should put on liquid in your tub at night if you live alone. Then of course when you click on it it takes you want to know sites that says the 40 things hacks that you can do around the home, and there was a button is that start slideshow. Which means they were going to make me go from page to page and not even show what I clicked on the thumbnail for in the first place and somebody gets paid each time you click. So I just Googled Dawn dishwashing liquid in the bathtub and your video came right up. Thanks I hate those damn Hustlers making you click on stuff 600 times

Thanks for sharing! I need to get one of those scrub brushes and give it a try. That blue Dawn also works great for cleaning lots of things you may not want harsher cleaners on - I use it to hand wash cotton face masks (I soak them with the Dawn & hot water a while to kill germs), clean out the interior of handbags, clean up shoes (it works good on the rubber part too), clean up random spills/smells on carpet, etc.

There is nothing like Dawn. We use it for many things but here's one you've probably never heard before. A small amount on dentures, lightly rubbed and rinsed makes for a slime free surface (sorry about that) that will enable denture adhesive to work much better. I have no doubt a whole book could be published on the uses for Dawn.

This is great. I live in Europe so I don't have access to Dawn. Instead I use laundry detergent and it works just as well. Spray along inside the tub, wait 20 -30 minutes, and wipe. Works like a charm!

Its good to know that detergent other than Dawn works well too! Dawn isn't available for everyone or people can't use it for other reasons. Thanks for sharing about a different option!

I love the idea of the vinegar and the soap actually enclosed in the scrub brush chamber!!! GREAT IDEA!! Yes, me too, I can't handle sprayed vinegar or bleach! I sprayed vinegar once in my shower and the particulates in the air were inhaled by me while cleaning and it really burned my throat and nose and I coughed for a couple of days. Vinegar is a strong acid. Bleach, when sprayed, is a bad idea because it also creates chlorine particulates in the air and possibly a chlorine cloud which is really bad (she's not using bleach here though). I am looking for a non-chemical cleaner for my shower glass since I want it to sparkle :-) I am going to try 1/2 lemon with salt on it first and/or possibly vinegar mixed with baking soda to make a paste. Anything with vinegar though, I cough.

Hello! If your shower is really bad, you may need to use the other method. I've had great success with using it this way, but baking soda is such a great cleaning ingredient also, I am sure it would be a great addition.

[@janetslater129]

I kinda like this idea, although Dawn is NOT a natural dish detergent (no shame as I use the same thing). My other thought is to possibly use a funnel to help with not spilling the detergent. You can find them in any hardware section of a store for super cheap.

[@scwheeler24]

Nice. I’m going to try this for our shower tub that’s deep texture fiberglass. Being in my sixties it’s getting difficult to reach in and over it all. To do this while in there using that scrub tool sounds right up my alley. 2 👍👍

Why blue Dawn? I have orange Dawn. Will it work as well?

I made this with 16 oz vinegar and 6 oz blue Dawn. It is still too sudsy. I think I should have made a much smaller batch first. Now I have a giant bottle of this stuff that I’m afraid to use in my shower (for fear that it will take a lot of water to rinse the soap out or it will be slippery). Can I add more vinegar to dilute the mixture? At this rate it will take forever to use it up. Was thinking about throwing the whole thing out.

[@artisacat]

Also is it safe to use this mixture on delicate tiles and grout?

[@sandysteinbrook]

Yes, you can add more vinegar to dilute it. I make it in smaller batches because if it sits for a really long time (months and months), it goes rancid.

I have never tried it, but it may. I love when people comment and give new ideas.

This mixture works excellent to kill spiders outside! Stops the dead in their tracks!!

[@sandysteinbrook]

You just taught me something new!

Have you ever clean with dawn, vinegar and pine sol

[@sandysteinbrook]

I have not. Is it ok to mix vinegar and pine sol?

[@flightbun3311]

2/3 cups of white vinegar 1/3 of dish soap

[@sandysteinbrook]

Yes!

How long can you let the mixture sit in the spray bottle before having to throw it out?

[@sandysteinbrook]

I am not sure. I use it weekly, so once I make a batch, I use it up before it goes rancid. But, I am sure if it sits for months it will get nasty.

I’m gunna make and use.

Using a funnel might work well to fill your scrubber.

[@sandysteinbrook]

That is a great idea and would definitely work better. Sometimes I read the comments and think, duh, why didn't I think of that. Lol. I always learn from the comments.

[@nekkic2741]

Hi Sandy. Do you use this mixture on dishes and pots too?

[@sandysteinbrook]

I do not, but it would work wonderfully!

Ditch that scrubby handle thingy, and spray it. Then keep a Webster cobweb brush in or near the shower with a short screw-in handle on it so ya don't have to bend over so much. Websters are just enough stiff and bristly to get in corners, and they clean in a 360 degree direction; no turning your brush.

Thank you for sharing!
