Shower door cleaning

Hello, does anyone know how to clean shower doors so that they look clear? I have tried different cleaning sprays but to no avail, they still look streaky and have deposits on them after cleaning. I have recently tried 0000 steel wool, but it only came up marginally clearer, I tried it in conjunction with Viakal vinegar spray too. I'm beginning to think it's just that I don't have enough scrubbing power in my wrists.

The best thing I have found is a magic sponge. Gets them squeaky clean. And only using water too.

I use a squeegee thing when I finish to take excess water off, then dray with a towel. Keeps it clear and bright

washing up liquid does do a good job for me but unfortunately it’s a hard water area and it’s a right bugger, I can never get it totally clear.

Ooh I've been dying to share this 😂
Two microfiber cloths, run one under the hot tap until it's dripping wet and hot, squeeze a really generous squeeze of washing up liquid onto it, don't wring the water out, squidge it so it's soapy but dripping wet.
Then rub it over the glass, keep rubbing until it feels clean, the glass should be good and soapy.
Then dry it with the other dry cloth, don't rinse the suds off, go straight to drying.
I sometimes use one of those really useless "hand" towels to dry the glass.
Let me know if it works for you

I use cif with a microfiber cloth.

If you've been using more abrasive cleaners you might have scratched the glass.
