Use these Pro tips to help keep your bathroom filth-free and low maintenance!
Shower doors always seem to be a big problem but there are a few things you can do to keep yourself from having to viciously scrub them. Use a wet Brillo pad to clean glass doors. It eliminates water spots or scum without scratching any glass. Get in the habit of using a squeegee after each shower. This helps avoid buildup of nasty scum deposits.
By taking a few seconds every day to spray the shower and curtain liner with a cleanser or shower mist, you avoid having to deal with tough stains when you scrub the tub and tiles during your weekly routine.
For bathtubs, be sure to spray a solution of half warm water and half white vinegar on the entire surface. Let it stand for 15 minutes and then wipe with a sponge or microfiber and rinse with clean water. For heavier stains, make a paste of one part hydrogen peroxide and two parts baking soda. Rub it on the stains and let stand for at least an hour. You should be able to wipe and rinse the stain right off. When needed, repeat until you have eradicated the stain.
To keep the mirror streak-free and spotless, use cornstarch. Adding a teaspoon of cornstarch to a cup of white vinegar and a cup of water will make your glass shine crystal clear. Be sure to wipe out the faucet and wipe down the mirror every day. Those 15 seconds can save you from massive gunk accumulation each week.
Showing your bathroom a little TLC during the week can turn it a painstaking routine into a breeze. A few seconds of maintenance every day will save you time and headaches when it comes time for the weekly bathroom cleaning. Even if you only use a few of these tips, you will notice a change not only your bathroom space but in how you feel about cleaning it. It’s about time that space became a little less dreary. Happy Cleaning!
