Bathroom – Cleaning tips
Tips & Tricks — June 15, 2009 at 11:47
Rub ordinary car wax into your ceramic bathroom tiling to clean and refinish. Let it stand 10 minutes and buff or polish.- Use a typewriter eraser to clean spaces between bathroom tiles.
- Loosen dirt before cleaning the bathroom by filling the tub with the hottest water possible. The steam will loosen the dirt faster.
- To clean mineral deposits from a clogged shower head, boil it with half a cup of white vinegar and one quart of vinegar for a while
- Soak a plastic shower head in a hot vinegar and water mixture to unclog it.
- Before hanging shower curtains, soak them in a salt water solution to prevent mildew.
- Wash mildewed shower curtains in hot soapy water, rub with lemon juice, and let them dry in the sun.
- Dip a cloth in kerosene or rubbing alcohol to remove scum and spots from your bathroom fixtures.
- Use a piece of very fine plain steel wool to remove film from the shower stall.
- Lighter fluid will remove most dark, stubborn stains from sink and bathtub.
- Restore whiteness to a yellowed bathtub by rubbing with a salt and turpentine solution.
- Dip a stiff brush in a kerosene and warm water solution to clean the bath mat.
- Spread a paste of hydrogen peroxide and cream of tartar over the rusted area, and add a few drops of ammonia. Let it stand or 2 or 3 hours.
- Rust stains on tile can be removed with kerosene.
- Try using one of the rust removers (found on this site) to remove toilet bowl rings.
- Rub glass shower doors with a white vinegar dampened sponge to remove soap residue.
- Insert a sponge into the leg of an old nylon stocking and knot the end. Use it to scrub sinks, bathtub, tile, etc.
- If your medicine cabinet has two sliding mirrors, slide one side open before taking a hot bath or shower. After the bath, you’ll have one clean mirror instead of two that are steamed and foggy.
- If you suffer from back problems, use a child’s toy mop to clean your bathtub–you won’t have to stoop over to clean.
- Stand a rubber bath on end to let it drain–prevents mildew and mold.
- If you run about an inch of cold water before adding hot water in the bath, there will be absolutely no steam in your bathroom.
- It’s a good idea to go through your medicine several times a year and throw away medicines that are old or outdated. They could be dangerous.
- Clean your bathroom after a steamy bath or shower. The walls, fixtures, etc., will be much easier to clean, because the steam will have loosened the dirt.
