I clean the glass shower doors with a homemade window cleaner but still have stains. Also, how do you get hard water stains off the metal shower handle?

    Hi Judy. I make a paste with baking soda and vinegar. When you make it it will bubble up which is normal. I scrub it on and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes then rinse and repeat if necessary. I am not sure if this is what you use but it does work for me. Good Luck!

    Here are 3 options:

    Cut a grapefruit in half, cover with kosher salt and use as a scrubber.

    Lysol Power Scum cleaner in the blue trigger spray bottle with a Magic Eraser or a scrub brush.

    Wet & forget shower for a slower, no scrub solution. You can use 2x a week to accelerate the cleaning process then once a week to keep it clean.


    Consider getting a powered spin scrubber. It really makes house work easier than scrubbing.

    Hello! These suggestions and links might help your shower glass store cleaning concerns


    In our situation We have to be disciplined make preventive measures with each use to combat our hard water situation.

    Prevent soap scum and mold buildup by using a squeegee, sponge, or absorbent towel on the frameless glass door and ceramic walls of the enclosure after every shower. Doing so helps remove residue before it hardens, while also eliminating the moisture that mold and mildew need in order to thrive. The sponge or towel will need be wrung out well and allow it to dry completely between each use. Launder the towel or throw the sponge in the dishwasher to disinfect regularly. This sorta routine care helps make the weekly cleaning manageable preventing mold mildew sosp scum and hard water stains.
