Soap scum: be gone!!
Well, that didn't work so I guess I'll have to clean. Bummer.
A friend told me to try vinegar and Dawn dish detergent to remove soap scum. I'll admit: I l.o.a.t.h.e. cleaning our tubs and showers and had a LOT of scum on the sides. I wasn't sure this mixture would do the trick. She told me to microwave the vinegar for 2 minutes, put it in a spray bottle then add about 1/2 a cup of baking soda and shake gently. I'm telling ya, the vinegar smelled horrid!! Who knew vinegar smells so bad when heated? Oh, you did? Well I had no idea. You may want to wear a mask...the smell choked me up. Anyway, I sprayed the mixture on the sides and bottom of my tub and shower and let it to sit for about 2 hours. I was told the scum would wipe away easy peasy. I did have to scrub but not nearly as hard as I've had to scrub while using other cleaners. I was very happy with the outcome and my now sparkly, shiny shower and tub! Just use caution; I wouldn't use this mixture when little ones are around. The smell really is THAT bad.
