Non slip shower tray and fluff

4 replies

Has anyone got an amazing way to clean the annoying fluff and 'bits' from a non- slip shower tray?

I'm SO fed up as I just can't get them clean!

We had new bathrooms fitted in October and everything else cleans up beautifully even though we're in a hard water area, but the non slip shower trays are like fluff magnets!!

I've tried:
wet microfibre cloths
dry microfibre cloths
a duster type cloth
kitchen roll
mopping
Soapy water, plain water. diluted white vinegar

Anyone else have any ideas please?
Thank you!

The instructions (!) say to just clean with soapy water and not to use anything harsher on the shower trays, so I'm reluctant to use any cleaning sprays etc...

Hoping for an amazing type of cloth that will do the job or something like that!

I’m not familiar with non-slip shower trays - are they slightly rough & pulling tiny bits off the cloths? Have you tried a soft brush instead of cloth?

I just spray with a shower spray thing... Method spray or M&S spray, immediately after showering.
I know you can get 'bits' but I just release the hand spray bit to spray them away.

Thanks for replying - not the most scintillating thread!!!

@ElleL Yes, it has a tiny 'bobbled' texture. It's mainly bits of fluff from the towels I think as it's worse when we have our new fluffy towels than it is with our older ones.
A soft brush is a good shout. I'll try that- thanks.

@Crapuscular I used to use a shower spray on our old showers, but the new enclosures and trays say not to use anything other than than soap and water (which surprisingly does a brilliant job of cleaning off any hard water bits we miss when squeegeeing (is that a word?!) after a shower).

I've tried rinsing the fluff off with water from the shower, but that doesn't seem to work... thanks for the idea though.
