What will clean years of hard water spots on shower doors?
If the tile area is not marble, granite, etc., try a 50/50 mix of white distilled vinegar and water on the glass. Use a microfiber cloth that has never seen fabric softener.
Dry using a squeegee, wiping the blade between each long stroke.
Buff dry.
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.
Welcome to my world! Once you get your arm workout done (scrubbing it good and clean) put on a coat of RainX car wax. It will help your hard work stay nicer longer. Also look into a water softener for your home. It’s amazing for your skin, cleaner dishes, etc.

A magic eraser does wonders on shower doors.
I've used a 50/50 mix of vinegar and dish soap, let it sit then scrub. CLR might work. After it's clean, apply several coats of RainX and use a squeegee after each shower to make cleaning less of a pain.
I wet papertowels with white vinegar and stick it to the area I want to clean and let it sit overnight. Spritzing occassionally to keep it moist . Rinse, and if need be, light scrubbing with a scotchbrite pad or pumice, then dry and spray with RainX Original for windshields . That will help shed the water and keep the alkali from sticking so cleaning is MUCH easier thereafter. I've gone months without having to clean.. Just a quick squeegee after showering and DONE!

1 cup of White vinegar warmed up, mixed with 1/4 cup of dawn platinum., Fill spray bottle with water. Spray the shower door and let stand about an hour. Rinse. You may have to do this a few times to get off all the hard water stains.
Get rid of grime on the interior of your glass shower door by following these simple steps:
Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 solution of Dawn dish soap and vinegar. Spray it on the hard water stains and let it work. If they are tougher stains, you may have to scrub with a plastic scrubbie!
