The cheapest all round cleaner is simply, a squirt of bleach ( the cheapo one will do), a squirt of washing-up liquid and water. Fill a spray bottle with this mixture and it cleans almost anything. And, as it’s so cheap, you can make a fresh solution each week.

Clean tub/shower , stop water from draining out of tub, put in soap and water(about 4 inches of water,( I use dishwasher soap) use SPONGE MOP to clean walls and sides from the water in the bottom of the tub (the soap in the water in the tub will clean the bottom while your cleaning the walls with the same water,rince and let dry.Takes about 5 minutes.

Dishwasher detergent liquid or powder is also a great shower/tub cleaner for scum and bleach formula dishwasher detergents whiten enamel or fiberglass.
For the milder build up plain white vinegar and baking soda (helps to polish without scratching) and a little elbow grease.

The least expensive and most effective way I have found to get soap scum off of tub and shower surfaces is to wet the surfaces, apply Tide laundry powder to all surfaces, let sit for about 2-3 minutes and lightly scrub with a cleaning cloth. Tide is very good at dissolving the scum so a lot of elbow power is not necessary. Another benefit is that it doesn’t release a lot of fumes into the air while you’re cleaning.

I keep it this simple, One of those Mr clean magic erasers and a bit of soft scrub and my showers and tubs as well as the hydro tub are as white as the day they were installed.using a scented soft scrub really gives a nice clean smell I happen to like the lemon. If you have not cleaned for some time you might need two of those erasers.

Kaboom used to work really well…spray leave for about 10 minutes and come back and rinse…simple. You would even see all of scum run off the walls into the tub. I no longer recommend this product. I’m guessing they have changed their formula. The bottle looks the same but says something about a new scent. I think they changed more than the scent.

for cleaning showers, use cheap white vinegar and a microfibre cloth. This cleans the glass doors really well. For mold or stubborn spots, sprinkle with bicarb soda and then spritz with the cheap white vinegar, it will fizz and bubble as its cleaning. You can also put this down the drains each week to keep them smelling fresh and keep them from blocking up. Spraying your mirror with vinegar and wiping with a paper towel keeps mirrors streak free and clean. Vinegar helps kill germs. Once dry it has no odour. If you like add a drop or two of lemon essential oil to help boost its cleaning power and to leave a nice clean scent in the room.

Finally got the grime off the plastic shower floor with dishwasher powder, a scrub brush and some elbow grease. FYI: oderless oven cleaner did NOT work.

White vinegar is great for removing hard water deposits and soap scum, but be careful not to let it sit on your faucets for more than a few minutes. I will eat the finish off.

Best thing I found was concrete cleaner for the polyurethane floor of my shower….
