I use Mr Clean Magic Erasers it will take some scrubbing but you use water on the eraser and start in one area and clean thoroughly
you can find soap scum products to use in the stores but the fumes are hard on you too
Give this a try: Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 solution of Dawn dish soap and vinegar. Spray it on the soap scum and let it work. If they are tougher stains, you may have to scrub with a plastic scrubber!
Oven cleaner has some powerful ingredients in it that is designed to get to the bottom of some pretty nasty grime. The dirtiness on the inside of your oven is usually a lot harder to clean than a shower. Therefore, the cleaner usually works wonders on getting even the most stubborn scum and stains up.
Easy Off No Fume oven cleaner in the BLUE can. Works on enamel, porcelain, and fiberglass. Will clean the textured surface on fiberglass tubs.
The blue trigger spray Lysol shower scum with a power scrubber would be my recommendation.
Another option is "wet & forget shower", which is a slower working over time. I use it weekly on my shower and never have to clean it any more.
How about lemon essential oil? The citric acid in the essential oil may break up the soap scum. You can also try a mixture of dawn soap and vinegar.
Old fiberglass yellows over time, so it may not come clean. But I used Dollar Tree Awesome Orange to clean soap scum in the bathroom for clients, and it just melts the stuff off. Another product for fiberglass is Gel Gloss that is made to clean and shine old fiberglass tubs, found at Walmart or on Amazon.
Scrub with bleach is all you can do. I know, it's gross!
CLR will work.. Spray on full strength let sit for a bit them wash off... A magic eraser may also help
I use Young Living's Thieves cleaner
