Tell me how to clean my shower without losing the will to live

[CrispsandStEtienne]

We gave up our cleaner with the cost of living crisis and have managed really well BUT...

I cannot get the glass shower door clean.

Please tell me how you do it - surely there is one product that just gets the water marks (hard water area) off?

I'm doing three different things: Cif, that stainless steel spray, and Mr Muscle glass, and I still can't get it properly clean.

THANK YOU

Viakal spray
buff with an ecloth
daily shower spray and squeegee after each use

I use Viakal.

Viakal limescale remover, sponge with green scratchy bit. Spray all over, then rub with the sponge, leave for a minute or two and then squeegee off.

Easier to do when you're having a shower in my experience.

Viakil here too.

You need a limescale remover

Yes! I always clean my shower when i’m in it 😳

I echo the above. The only way is daily squeegeeing. I don't bother with a shower spray. I just make sure that all the walls and the screen are well rinsed off, then squeegee. I then wipe the glass door dry.
Stop it building up in the first place.

Viakal here too.
And you need to rinse it off, then squeegee it off, then dry the glass for it to be pristine.
I do that if guests are coming. 😂

White wine vinegar. We also always squeedge the screen after having a shower so it doesn't get too bad.

@CrispsandStEtienne vaikal too! used it for years! sometimes use it also on the shower floor

Yup, Viakal and the scoury side of a sponge.

Washing up liquid is good for a quick clean between Viakal scrubs.

I’m in a very soft water area, but I find rinsing the screen down after every shower, and squeejying it dry, keeps it smear-free. It’s a minor pain but it works better than anything else I’ve tried.

Harpic black loo cleaner on the green scourer side of a kitchen sponge...
Cleaner here. Much cheaper and more effective..

viakal or Cilit bang. Spray it on, leave for a few minutes, then scrub with wire wool. Rinse, squeegee, buff with cloth.
Once clean, keep clean by spraying daily & squeeging.

Alternatively get a water softener and you won’t have to bother with the above!

squeegee or towel dry after each use.
and yes to descaler when, erm, scaly.

This stuff strips the chrome effect off taps etc though

Viakal and green scratchy sponge.

Then, when you've done that, and dried it- clear car wax, like Turtle Wax. Cuts way down on the need for Viakal etc.

Viakal user here too! The shower screen can be opaque (don't judge!) and yet a spray of viakal works wonders

Very hard water here.
I run the shower (very hot) round the cubicle before I get out. I then use a cloth to dry the chrome bits and a mop (with washable head) to dry off the screen. It's very boring but easy to do.

My special treat on holiday is to leave the shower without wiping!

I use bleach

Magic eraser/sponge. Don't even need any cleaning spray. Admittedly I live in a soft water area, so it might be easier to clean, but those magic sponges really work. They don't last long though.

We have a karcher window vac and just go over the screen after a shower. Takes about a minute and keeps it clean.

Vinegar

The Method shower is great. Just spray on and leave. We have really hard water, so everything gets limescale unless you keep on top of it

We use our karcher after every shower and hardly get any water marks. A faff but easier than cleaning the glass after every shower.
