Vinegar and Lemon Juice: The Secret to Spotless Glass Shower Stalls
Household cleaning enthusiasts have discovered a safe and effective way to maintain glass shower stalls. A simple mixture of vinegar and lemon juice, when used correctly, can clean and protect these surfaces. However, caution is advised when using this solution on certain materials.
To clean glass shower stalls, mix vinegar or lemon juice with water in a 1:2 ratio. Spray or apply the mixture onto the glass, then let it sit for five to ten minutes. After this, wipe and rinse the surface thoroughly. This method effectively removes soap residue and prevents new stains.
For added protection, consider the 'potato trick'. Impregnating the shower stall with a potato can help water roll off surfaces, reducing the risk of water marks and stains. Additionally, using a shower squeegee and drying surfaces, fittings, joints, and seals after each shower can minimize the risk of lime deposits and mold growth. To clean a bathtub cabinet ceiling, use a mixture of water and white vinegar in equal parts. Apply it with a soft cloth or sponge, then rinse with water and dry to remove residue.
While vinegar and lemon juice mixtures are effective for cleaning glass shower stalls, they should be avoided on rubber seals, natural stone tiles, tile joints, and silicone joints to prevent damage. Regular cleaning and maintenance, including the use of a shower squeegee and the potato trick, can help keep shower stalls clean and stain-free.
