Help me clean my shower screen

I've moved into a new place with a lovely shower room but I can't keep the shower screen clean. It was spotless when I moved in - did they ever use it?
I've tried all the eco vinegar methods but can't get the screen completely smear free. Is is impossible?? I clean after ever use but there's still smears ??

Method Shower Spray immediately after showering. No need to wipe or scrub. Especially advisable to do it straight away if you have hard water.

Scrubby spray brush that you can fill with detergent.
One part vinegar 2 parts washing up liquid.
Keep in/ near shower and wash down after use.

Second Viakal

What do you use with the vinegar? Newspaper was a revelation to me for cleaning the shower screen, works amazingly with regular glass cleaning spray. My DP worked cleaning hostels in Australia when he was travelling and it was a tip he picked up there!

This. We have a squeegee in the shower which we use most times then a good spray with method and leave on. We also buy the stainless steel cleaner for the shower itself.

A little bit of washing up liquid on a damp microfibre cloth. Than dry immediately with a dry microfibre cloth

Another vote for Method shower spray, the passion fruit scented one is lush

Aldi shower spray. Cheap as chips. Tesco do one as well but it doesn't smell as good.

Endlesscleaning · 19/08/2021 23:20

Ecover limescale remover. Rinse and squeegee off. Go over with window cleaner and microfibre cloth.

We also use Method daily shower spray. I would also recommend getting a water softener if it's to do with hard water as it will cause issues for your central heating too eventually.

I’ll try Method shower spray, have never heard of it.

What has worked for me the best so far is scrubbing using the Pink stuff.

gulliblestravels · 19/08/2021 23:25

Viakal thirded.

PleaseReferToMeAsBritneySpears · 19/08/2021 23:27

Viakal weekly
Simple human squeegee after each shower

timetochangeagainforever · 19/08/2021 23:29

Thanks all. ll try method thanks. Use the brand for other products. Just pissed off that I can't recreate the smear free shower screen that was when i moved in. Feeling a failure!
I shall clean the screen and never use the shower again ! 🤣

What's a scrub daddy?
PleaseReferToMeAsBritneySpears · 19/08/2021 23:33

You can and you will!

floridapalmtree · 19/08/2021 23:34

Viakal much better than Method shower spray.

Wingedharpy · 20/08/2021 00:45

Clean AND dry every nook and cranny after every use - while you are still standing inside it naked.
'Ti's the only way.

Losttheequipment · 20/08/2021 00:47

Viakal definitely

My mother was doing that years ago!
Fitschkels · 20/08/2021 23:25

Spray viakal everywhere then give a light scrub with a sponge/scourer
Rinse off
Squeegee off excess water
Polish with a dry e-cloth for glass
When the ecloth is a little damp from doing that you then wipe the non shower side of the screen with it, nothing else needed that side

SingingSands · 20/08/2021 23:42

I use e-cloth glass and polishing cloths to clean my shower screen and they bring it up sparkling.

PivotPivotPivottt · 20/08/2021 23:47

I'm a cleaner and use glass cleaner spray and Minky glass cloths leaves the screens streak free every time. Also use this on the chrome parts of the shower for a nice shine.
