Yes, I know its boring, but I'm really trying to get better in the house. Recommendations for the best products/methods for the above please. I would preferably like a method which takes 5 minutes tops. Posted here for traffic, rather than on Housekeeping.

I use Spray Wipe Done on mine but the important thing is doing it often so it doesn't get that bad. I use a squeegee to get rid of the water daily (it helps to be the last to shower in the morning).

Whichever method you use once you've got it clean, do it often enough to keep it reasonably clear.

A lot of these methods rely on you being the last or only user of the shower. No way would my family ever clean the shower after every use and I leave for work before they do. Does no one else have this problem? Dh is brilliant domestically but he would never clean a shower

White vinegar convert 🥳🥳🥳

Do love the method shower stuff for the first wipe though, then the white vinegar for the streak free polish.

Once you get the shower screen clean and dry go over with some turtle wax or car wax, be careful to not get any on the bath or floor and it will keep it much clearer for much longer.

When mine is bad I use washing soda, but I live in a soft water area, so I don't know if that's any use in a hard water area

People who clean after showering, what about when othrr people in your house shower?

Reading recommendations with interest - I'm able to keep my shower screen clean using shower spray by method and squeegee after each use but I've noticed black mould appearing on my tiles. What's the best method to remove? Any advise gratefully received

We live in a hard water area, which is a pain in the arse. However, every time we have a shower we use a car windscreen squeegee thing to wipe the tiles and the glass screen. Or sometimes I just spray the screen with shower screen spray stuff, Aldi and Waitrose do a good one- spray and leave.
Once a week I get the limescale that collects at the bottom of the screen off by scrubbing with a Brillo pad, which you'd think would scratch the glass but it doesn't. I clean the glass with glass cleaner, wipe it with damp newspaper, dry with dry newspaper and it comes up a treat. 6 years on it's still like new.
