Cleaning a Textured Tub |
|
|
I clean houses on weekends and one house has 2 tubs and a shower that have a rough texture in the bottom. It's not even 2 years old and they are all stained. The rough texture is made to be there. It has the look and feel of those sticky things you put in your tub so that you won't slip, except it is on the whole floor of the tubs and shower.
I have tried clorox, peroxide, peroxide and baking soda, clorox cleanup, folex, pine sol, 409, dishwasher liquid soap, and have let most soak before trying to remove, but nothing has worked so far.
Any suggestions?

I agree with the magic eraser, but is there something else out there without using elbow grease.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser cleans those textured tubs better than anything on the market.

I have the same kind of tubs and the only thing that I have found that works is Soft Scrub and a stiff brush that is made to clean the tubs

Try any shampoo, i got this from another tip site and it reallly works, have used it on fiberglass and regular tubs, just dab some on a scrubber or what ever you use to clean a tub and see the results, let me know if it worked for this particular tub

Bar keeper's friend! I get it at Walmart, Raley's and I think I've seen it at Rite-Aid. $1.70-$3.00
Check out the website:

It's my main cleaning tool. I could never be without it. Try it and you'll see! :)

i would proceed with extreme caution if the tub is fibreglass. oven cleaner may destroy it
just my 2 cents

Oven cleaner can work and shouldn't harm the tub. And yes, I have found some of the dollar store versions of oven cleaner work BETTER than Easy-Off!

I have read on some other tip pages to use oven cleaner from the dollar store. One lady who said she cleans houses for a living swears by it.

I agree with the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. It will probably take some elbow grease the first time, but the rest is just maintenence.

We have these kinds of tubs in the assisted living center where I work and I found the best thing to use is a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. It works great!
