This DIY cleaner works everytime!

[@patfiegener5369]

I am not trying to be disrespectful, but showing how a product works on what looks like a perfectly clean tub is not a good example. Please show it being used on a dirty tub or shower.

[@michelledcarter]

I was thinking wow this tub looks new, however she can't help that it does. If she used a friend's home, then people would complain, about that didn't look like her tub from her other videos. Then she would have to explain this is her friend's tub, then her friend would get comments like: she is nasty with that tub looking like that. This is probably why we don't get many dirty, gross videos. This channel is suppose to inspire us to try it for ourselves. I do have a neighbor who has an older bath tub and I'm going to see if I can try this on hers. Hopefully you take this comment in kind. 🙏😊

[@Megan-py7jo]

My tub looks like this. It looks “clean” from a distance but there is loads of soap scum buildup (so I imagine that’s hard to capture on camera). Awhile back I used this exact same “recipe” and it worked wonders! Far better than any store bought cleaner and the added bonus is that baking soda is a natural abrasive!

[@michelledcarter]

@@Megan-py7jo Wonderful! I have similar issues, forgot to say I will try on my own tub too. 🤗

[@SilverHawk214]

I've got a really stained tub (rental) to try this DIY cleaner on. I'll try to remember top let y'all know how it goes.

[@joannaluca8495]

Well just try it on yours?! If she would have a filthy tub people would complain about it so no win win situation.

[@MochiTea012]

I have tried this on a clean tub and a fairly dirty one. The dirty one required a handle brush and more elbow grease but it got the job done. The mixture works great on the faucet and taps too.

[@mariesunga8942]

I've tried this and baking soda works amazing on soap scum. A gentle, yet effective abrasive solution.

[@jg1551]

I combine water, Dawn and vinegar. I spray the tub, let it sit for a few minutes then wipe with wet cloth, rinse. Done.

[@janet1744]

JG thank you.

[@zheahra]

Thanks

[@paulaw418]

If it's truly dirty or has a lot of soap residue, HEAT THE VINEGAR up in the microwave before adding to the soap. But just until hot, do not get it to boiling temp. Or else you'll melt the plastic spray bottle and/or lose the effectiveness of the vinegar.

[@MyDaisy66]

I make this all the time. Its very cheap to make. Not only does it clean but it makes the Bath, sink, tiles and loo shine. I don’t bother with the essential oils though. Great stuff 👍🏻

[@ashakabeta]

I cleaned my tub and shower with this. It worked very well. The trick is not letting it get too dirty in the first place. Then, it's a much easier task! I'm also disabled so .. you can do it! Btw, I use lemon and tea tree.

[@amandalyoung676]

This is my favorite combo. I do it daily with one difference. I use a softer broom that I purchased specifically for shower-use only. This saves my back TREMENDOUSLY! Changed my life. Then I shower and after that I always wipe the whole shower/tub out because my water is hard and THAT aae will cause a dirty appearance if left to dry. This woman filming sells some microfiber cloths that are 😇🤲AmaZing for this. 😉🙆🏼‍♀️ I sometimes just wrap one around the broom and also swab out the tub like that when my back is very achy and/or I'm feeling lazy.

[@ashakabeta]

@@amandalyoung676 I wish I could buy some but I simply can't afford them. I can't even afford cheap ones. I'm resorting to making rags out of old clothes, but I Love my bath tub broom too! Yessss..

[@dibright1445]

@@ashakabeta $tree sells these head wraps to use after washing your hair. I absolutely love them, I never use a regular towel. They are microfiber and last a long time. I do wash them with my towels. I know you shouldn’t do that with microfiber, but where I just use them on my hair they are fine. I bet they would work just like the expensive ones. Hope this helps you. ❤

[@Sophiecandy]

I've been housecleaning for over 20 years. I've tried it all. Magic Erasers and tubs - no soap or scrubbing required - I cannot express it enough how flawless these work on tubs and tile. It's a secret weapon if I start dating someone new and I can't comprehend their lack of bathroom cleanliness. 5 minutes during a shower I'm already taking and the tub is safe and sound.

[@debbief1271]

I have a fiberglass tub and iron in my water constantly battling this rust+ mold issue. Will this work for our home also?

[@acmulhern]

It should do. I have a similar situation and haven't had a problem. Maybe you could test it in a small spot and see if it does anything before doing the entire tub.

[@ScrubNSqueeze]

The dish soap? It depends on which one you use but they’re usually very mildly scented, and baking soda doesn’t have a smell.

Baking soda can scratch your tub, and for limescale its useless you need vinegar or citric acid to get rid of limescale. Ds is good for the grease and soap residue 😊 combine ds with vinegar 😉

I do the cleaning in the bathroom but with bleach in spray only and while I shower. That's the fastest and easiest way...also, I do it every 2 to 3 days.

I hope your bathroom is well ventilated... That would give me a headache.

@@AmandaLovesOldFords Is not, but is just a little bit of bleach diluted in water...it hardly smells. Now I'm doing it with water, destilled vinegar and a lemon. Also works great.

[@Lashlove16]

This is the best works great for the sink and inside of the toilet

[@StuartLohe]

Makes perfect sense - both dish soap and baking soda work on grease, so soap scum will be obliterated. Vinegar cleaner, on the other hand, works on hard water spots.

[@KittenBowl1]

For hard water spot removal you need acid. You can use baking soda and detergent cleanser to remove soap scum. Before rinsing, sprits with diluted vinegar. It would bubble up acid acting with baking soda (alkaline), and leave it for 5 min. Then rinse. It should remove hard water deposit. Steam cleaner is also effective for removing hard water deposits with diluted vinegar.

[@jessicafrye4543]

You also used essential oils, how many drops did u use? Does any dish soap work? Is your dish soap scented?

[@SnapszDuhh]

Dawn dish soap is really good.

[@KittenBowl1]

A few drops.

[@acmulhern]

I love all your recipes and they have changed my life. But please, don't use essential oils. They're so bad for the environment and they don't add much. It's much better to just use a diffuser if you like the smell and you still want to use them. But essential oil sales have boomed in the past decade and it is a very destructive industry.
