We have iron in our water so I know what you mean. I use the works. It is pretty inexpensive and does a good job. There is one for toilet bowls and one for tub and sink. I use both. You can find it in any grocery or department store.

As the designated shower cleaner in my home, I have squeegeed and sponged, scrubbed, scoured, and rubbed until my fingers were white. Removing mildew from the grout and residues from the tub and tiles is hard work, and I hated it. So, three years ago, when I first heard on radio about a product--called Clean Shower--that could relieve me of this unpleasant chore, I checked it out immediately. I wasn't disappointed. In my view, Clean Shower and products like it are the best thing to appear on grocery shelves since sliced bread. I stock up when these products are on sale; I clip coupons for them; my bathrooms are never without them.

Thanks for this tip, I will have to try this one out too, although I do like the results I am getting from soft scrub, and scrubbing bubbles. Is it in a spray or a foam?

Shower cleaners come in spray plastic bottles. Drying and cleaning after a shower is as easy as applying a few squirts of the pleasantly scented solution on the still-wet shower walls, shower curtain, and tub. I even use it on bathroom sinks. As long as a shower is reasonably clean to begin with, continuous use of these products will keep the shower clean.

use half a lemon with salt sprinkled ob it works every time

just wipe it with the lemon and the salt and rinse off the acid in the lemon works wonders and the salt works as a non abrasive scourer

I havent heard of this method either. there are some very useful tips here for us to try. does the salt and the lemon eat away the scum. do you have to go back and wipe it down with a dry rag after that?

I use Scrub Free. Just spray on, wait a few minutes, and wipe off. A blue 3M sponge, scratcher will NOT scratch the surface, either! It was recommended for my stovetop and new countertops. So now, I use it in the shower, too! To make the time longer between Scrub Freeing, I got an automatic shower cleaner from Scrubbin Bubbles...Dow Brand. It's awesome. Now, I only have to Scrub Free every 4 or 6 weeks! There's coupons somewhere on line!

Hi. I use soft scrub, and scrubbing bubbles in my shower and it seems to work really well. All you have to do is spray it on, wait a little bit and wipe it off with a soft rag.
