Two things about cleaning

[MadameCheese]

Firstly how do I get my bath nice and clean (we are in a hard water area)? Secondly has anyone tried the new co-op eco range and if so how do they rate compared with ecover products?

I tried the new Ecover bathroom cleaner (it's in a spray bottle), hadn't used it before, and it's fab. We're in a very hard water area and it is very effective.

Not tried the co-op though, sorry.

Used that loads but it seems to do BA!

I like the Method stuff, but not sure whether it's all talk, or really eco-friendly. I noticed the other day that Oxfam does a range of cleaners etc, but haven't tried them.

Oh. seems to work on our bathroom, or maybe I'm not very fussy

Believe me I am a scum queen but feel it would be good to put DS in a relatively clean bath

Amazing how DCs cause one to raise one's standards, isn't it?

Ha ha! His room is the cleanest in the house!

And then lower them right down again. My house is a fucking tip now there are two of them. Little shits.

I'm obviously feeling really positive! Vinegar and bicarb is amazing, truly. Especially on taps. Vinegar on limescale is a truly miraculous thing.

Ace, what just shove it straight on?

I find a white vinegar solution and a microfibre cloth gets my bath sparkling (very hard water area). Also use the Ecover limescale cleaner for hard to get areas around taps and that works well too.

astonish is quite good.

Make up a paste with the bicarb. I have a 50/50 vinegar and water solution that I use for general cleaning and it's great on chrome. You do have to dry it though.

If you get a cleaning grade one rather than an eating grade vinegar, the smell isn't as strong so you don't have a bathroom that smells of chip shop.

For soap scum in the bath NOTHING beats regular ecover washing up liquid. It works better than the bathroom spray!
