WD40: leave it on for a little while then wipe off. Great stuff! After they are cleaned keep 'em clean with hydrogen peroxide (which is also great for appliances).

I too have hard water marks and have used everything under the sun, including on the advise on the internet sites with no positive results.  Will have to install softener.

Margaret · Answer

Try Magic Eraser. It works well on soap scum. The glass company that installed my shower surround told me about it.

I used to clean houses professionally and what worked every time was pure lemon oil applied with a microfiber sponge. Wipe off any excess with paper towels. It leaves a transparent barrier with a fresh lemony smell and it  repels water spots and makes them easier to clean next time around. My customers thought I was a miracle worker... I didn't tell them how easy it was. Now you know one of the trade secrets.

I am a professional housekeeper and have used straight white vinegar, sprayed on and left for about 1 minutes then attack it (gently) with one of those little single-edged razor blade scraper.  It'll come clean, but be gentle or you may scratch the glass.  After it's cleaner, spray with WD-40 and wipe dry.  Will stay clean for a long time.

Have you ever tried CLR? You can buy it at any home improvement store, or even your grocery store. Smells awful, but it works like a charm.

John · Answer

Try spraying Vinegar and scrub it lightly - may have to repeat multiple times, then a finish cleaning. You can read more ideas here http://behindtheshower.com/clean-water-spots-off-shower-glass/
