Everyone can agree that taking a soothing bath is the perfect way to step into tranquility. Soaking in the warm water helps you unwind, and the stress seems to wash away as the water goes down the drain. Everyone can also agree that a grimy bathtub with soap scum and mineral deposits is disgusting. How do you get rid of such grime without using harmful chemicals, though?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nobody wants to clean their bathtub or shower. It\u2019s an annoying chore that people typically neglect. Unfortunately, all of that neglect results in a gross bathtub that makes the thought of soaking in a bath horrifying. A bathtub or shower is a magnet for soap scum and even mildew. This often results in water stains or rust stains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is The Answer To Bathtub Scum?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not everyone wants to use the bathtub cleaners because they are replete with toxic chemicals<\/a>. If you have ever sprayed one of these cleaners in your bathtub, you know that that aroma is pungent and causes you to cough. In case you aren\u2019t aware, that\u2019s not a positive reaction. Additionally, you have to spray a lot and scrub hard in order for these solutions to be effective. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t fight the tub and don\u2019t scrub until you inflict pain on your elbows and shoulders. Use simple ingredients to your advantage and allow them to fight through scum and stains with minimal effort on your part. The following two ingredients will help transform the look and cleanliness of your tub.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dish Soap<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

More often than not, dish soap will work to clean most showers and tubs. Some are more effective than others, as not all varieties can easily fight through built-up grime. If you only use dish soap and a little water, you can actually scrub with a broom and get the tub sparkly and clean. The purpose of dish soap is to break up oils and lift grease from flatware and utensils. It tackles the grease and soap scum that accumulates in your shower the same way. When you wash away the suds, you\u2019ll be shocked to see how clean your tub is<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

White Vinegar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Depending on the type of tub you have, a gentle cleaner like white vinegar may be better for the surface. For example, porcelain bathtubs offer a signature, shiny, luxurious appearance. To keep them that way, you can avoid damage by using a gentle cleaner that combats aromas and grime. Vinegar\u2019s high acidity level helps to loosen mineral deposits, including lime and rust. This same acidity makes it difficult for bacteria and other harmful organisms to exist in your tub. Ultimately, vinegar helps dissolve soap scum to make your tub as shiny and clean as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

DIY Bathtub Cleaner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • 1 cup dish soap\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 cup white vinegar<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • spray bottle<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • scrubber<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Instructions:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Warm the vinegar in a heat-safe glass measuring cup in a microwave until it is hot. Pour this into your spray bottle.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Pour the dish soap into the bottle after you pour in the vinegar.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Screw on the lid and shake gently to combine.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Spray liberally around your tub or shower and allow this mixture to sit for about 30 minutes to one hour. Because of the strong scent, make sure the bathroom is well-ventilated and that the fan is on.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Scrub gently and then rinse. You\u2019ll be shocked when you see how clean your tub is!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
