Motor Grease Stains in Bathtub

Can he shower somewhere else? Lol! That's a nasty burden to have to put on you. I've always had luck with a product called CLR. It cleans calcium deposits, lime, and rust, hence the CLR. It's pretty potent so I would think it'd be a cinch on motor grease, too. Just be sure when you use it that the bathroom is well ventilated and run the fan.

Ask the greasy fellow to wipe the tub down with a soapy rag, then rinse (which is easy to do with a shower head on a hose) before he exits the shower. Tell him you'll be "in the mood" more often if you have fewer backaches from scrubbing the tub. If there are stubborn spots it's probably because they are dirt mixed with dried hard water scale, and those are best attacked before they dry. It's the same reason he uses a chamois to dry his car right after washing it. For existing spots try vinegar to dissolve the scale and Pine Sol to dissolve the grease.

Use Greased Lightning spray (at Walmart). Melted baked on grease of drip pan from a smoker.

Bar Keepers Friend is good. Vinegar or Lime Away will also dissolve the minerals (that may be what the dingy stuffy is clinging to.) Let it sit a few minutes then wipe away.

Have you tryed using a degreaser on your tub? You can get a bottle at the dollar store. It should work on the tub. You can also use it on your stove and to get spots out of your clothes. Good luck...

Try Bar Keeper's Friend. It worked on my tub bottom when it was gray and dingy from very hard water deposits. It's the only thing that has worked. I use it every week!
