  • This is the best cleaning hack you will ever come across when it comes to cleaning a shower screen. With no harsh chemicals or scrubbing required, this is by far the best cleaning hack you need to know. Most cleaning products claim to easily clean the built up soap scum, grime, hard water stains and what ever other dirty materials are on the glass shower screen. Through experience and im sure most will agree that the majority of products are either harsh chemicals or require significant elbow grease to remove just a little bit of the mess. This is the fastest, safest and easiest way i have found to clean it in seconds through the use of a utility blade, razor blade or scraper blade which ever you prefer to call it.

    You sir are a genius!! This worked so well!!! I still used some gumption on a wet cloth afterwards to scrub the last little bit off but because 99% of the soap scum was already removed there was very little scrubbing needed. This restored a 15 year old show screen to near new. This is why youtube is such a great resource. Thanks again for sharing.

      @@Dreamskater100 You have to use some liquid. Vinegar has some advantages in loosening or dissolving hard water deposits. Also try not to scrub with the Magic Eraser. Simple wiping is more effective. Wipe lightly a few times and rinse the Magic Eraser. Wipe again a few times and rinse. The third time is usually the last time. If your Magic Eraser seems to compress or wear out in the process, then you are using too much force. I cleaned 400 square feet of dirty tile flooring with one Magic Eraser mop head.

    We use the same method on brand new houses doing the builders clean ready for handover to the owner. A very very sharp blade is the key.
    Plenty of spray or lubricant. Mortar or anything stuck to the window, soak it and slide the blade up to it, then flush.
    If you use a cloth it will trap the mortar etc and drag it across the window.
    Some citrus spray or vinegar first to loosen and do it, works a treat. Another thing is grade 4 steel wool, it won't scratch glass, very gentle but effective.

    Great hack! Thanks! I'll definitely try this.
    For the record, I think this is not "bacteria" and filth, for the most part it's simply soap / shampoo, that drops on the walls around you, when you take a shower, then it dries and this is what you've got - thick soap residue, that builds up more and more, if you don't clean it regularly.

    Number 4 Steel wool with a bit of soap on it cleans off all the soap scum that builds up on your screen, it won’t scratch your glass no matter how hard you try to. I got this tip from the manufacturer of my screen enclosure, they even posted some out to me, works great. In all honesty, if you spray the glass, when you have finished scrubbing yourself, just to get rid of the fresh soap droplets, it really takes quite a while for it to build up again. Have a go, nothing to loose, try it on an old mirror or similar, number 4 steel wool, lubricated with a bit of soap, won’t scratch the surface.

    I've used a razor before and it definitely helps, but an even easier way is to mix hot vinegar and dish soap in a bowl. Use a sponge to spread across all the glass. Let sit an hour or two. The soap scum will basically fall right off as you go over it with the sponge again. This works on the glass, the floor, the walls, the shower handle, etc.
