Caring for Clear Glass Shower Doors

RE: Caring for Clear Glass Shower Doors Post By patti (Guest Post) (09/25/2008) My glass doors were horrible. I purchased CLR Kitchen & bth cleaner from the supermarket (also sold in Target). You spray it on wait 5 minutes wipe with a sponge then thoroughly rinse. It took a few times to get it clean. Now once every other week I do it and it comes right off.

I cleaned the shower with Rain-x and then dried it, was that the wrong thing to do?

We still squegee the shower walls and the door each time. I haven't had to scrub,(but I do clean it once every other month,)since we made the change.Clean it up and try it for 1 week,what have you got to loose except alot of aggravation.I know the soap manufacturers are losing money on us.

It works for me. Report Spam or Abuse I tried several things... Post By Rita (Guest Post) (03/01/2007) I used several tips to remove the soap scum build-up in hubby's shower. I tried everything from commercial solutions to vinegar and baking soda... and the BEST thing and THE one that really WORKED for me was MR. CLEAN MAGIC ERASER. Now that the shower door is sparkly clean again, I have a store-bought solution that hubby is supposed to spray onto the shower door each time he finishes his shower and does not have to rinse it off, and it's working well for now... however, I am so PROUD of the Magic Eraser, and I would suggest it to anyone for removing the scum if it DOES build up.... sorry I don't know a natural solution to tell you to make to spray onto the door to prevent build-up, unless it's vinegar, which was suggested to me. Good luck!

My sister says she had to buy some shower spray by Tilex to spray each time she takes a shower to eliminate water spots? Is there a more reasonable frugal way to eliminate this problem? I haven't used it yet, but I did buy a squeegee to use. My husband wonders if vinegar would work or a combination of that and water? I just love this website! Thanks for any suggestions. Starlight Answers: Squeegee I had an entirely glass shower enclosure that stayed spot free for years - immediately after showering, put that squeegee to work - the spots appear because they are left there to dry. If you squeegee them off, they can't spot! (10/03/2005) Car Wax Try a good quality car wax, RainX or I have even heard baby oil on the doors to prevent soap scum build up and help the water run off the doors. Be very careful not to get it on the sides or bottom of the tub. (10/03/2005) By dosize Wipe Down the Door I agree that the squeegee will work really well. Another idea is to just wipe the door down with your towel after each use. I had a glass door in the shower at my last house and had virtually no maintainance because I wiped it each time. (10/03/2005) By Katie A. Magic Eraser I swear I love these things: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser's. Try them once and I promise you wont go back to using anything else on your shower doors. They work with only water and makes everything shine. (10/03/2005) By Tracey RainX For new doors, treat them with Rainex like for car windshields and the water will fly off. It is still also a good idea to use a squeegee after each use.(01/30/2006) By Walter Kessler Report Spam or Abuse
