Tip for cleaning bathtub

Aug 28, 2004 3 Replies

To remove stains:



Take Cascade (or some other powder dishwashing stuff), and add a little water to mix it into a paste. Then apply that to your bathtub. Let sit 5-10 minutes. Rinse. The phosphates in the powder will try to dissolve the stains. I bet this works better than Tilex.

This would be for an enamelled metal tub? Not sure I'd want to try that on our acrylic/f.glass tub-shower enclosure? For it I find that a degreaser called 'Spray Nine' works quite well but any other suggestions for 'non scouring' (not gritty) cleaners welcomed. BTW I also have to clean a very dirty 26 foot fibreglass sail boat that's been standing outside under trees for some 12 years and has built up a dirty greyish film. TIA. Terry

It is also VERY affordable.

Hope this helps.
