Great tip! What I do to clean my microwave is I microwave distilled water mixed with lemon juice long enough where it boils and there’s a steam, and the steam makes it soooo much easier to clean, and it’s without chemicals.
I use Dawn & vinegar for many cleaning tasks. You need to let it sit for 20-30 minutes before scrubbing or rinsing. Another tip: roll your bottle instead of shaking it & you won’t get so many bubbles.
In my reading on the many comments, I’m amazed at the on going advisers who bring good products to the table, wow, 68, and still learning new things! Thanks!
I've been using this combo for years. This and barkeeper's friend are pretty much the only cleaners I use. Saves me a lot of money and it cleans nearly everything. For stains I use baking soda/peroxide paste.
You can achieve a wonderful result with so much less effort by using a 75% vinegar solution and get it steamy but NOT boiling then add the BLUE Dawn dish soap in a 1:1 ratio in a spray bottle. Take this mixture a spray it on all the surfaces liberally. Then let it set for 2 hours without doing anything. After 2 hours start rinsing everything down with just plain water, perhaps from the detachable shower head. Then to make it super easy USE A BROOM, dedicated for this purpose only, to scrub all the soap scum and hard water stains away. I just let the hot water trickle out of the spout to keep my nylon broom bristles wet as I'm scrubbing. Then give your surfaces another water rinse. YOU WILL BE AMAZED at how this works. I first saw this technique on a TH-cam however I can't remember the lady's name that shared her technique but I just tried this yesterday on my shower tub that I had neglected cleaning for 3+ years. WOW was I impressed with how it looks now!
Warning: I once microwaved a cup of white vinegar, full strength, for 5 minutes. The reason I came up with this big idea, was I wanted to clean out my microwave. My son had used it the day before, and it now had a huge baked--on mess of whatever it was that he cooked. About 3 or 4 minutes in, I heard a loud bang. I ran into the kitchen to find that the microwave door had blown open, when the vinegar heated up and exploded. Since it now looked safe, I went ahead and cleaned It out, as planned. It did clean up very easily. Unbelievably, the door seemed to not be damaged. Still, I should have probably thrown it away because it could have gotten an undetected radiation leak. I'm not qualified to give advise on this subject, but personally speaking, I won't ever heat up full strength vinegar again. And, I wouldn't heat up vinegar that's strongly diluted with water, longer than 2 minutes. Actually, even taking those precautions, I don't know if I would ever do it again.If you just want to clean out your microwave, boiling a cup of water in the microwave for 5 minutes, works just as well as hot vinegar. And, no explosions.
It might've been whatever container you used to microwave it in had fissures in it, and the heat was too much for it. Even Pyrex are known to explode in certain conditions. But 5 mins in general for a small container seems really long in general, I don't think I'd even microwave water that long.
Been there done that ...scared the hell outta me but thank goodness it didn't break my microwave door, either. Oh, I'm also glad I was standing to the right of it when it happened. My microwave is above my stove. It would have hit me smack dab in the face. 😵💫🤥
I clean my microwave with lemon and water. I put water in a bowl and squeeze one lemon into the water and microwave it for 3 minutes and just let the steam work it’s magic, unplug the microwave and scrub

I used the cleaning vinegar and Dawn combo on a 60 year old cast iron tub. Applied it liberally hot, let it sit a couple hours, went back with a scrubby sponge and washed it down. Literally looks like a new tub!
I have acrylic tubs and showers, I use a Cascade dishwasher pod mixed with about 2 cups of water, sponge it on one section then wait a few minutes before scrubbing lightly with sponge and rinse. Comes out fantastic-this also is terrific for tile surrounds as well.
When my daughter was in diapers 58 years ago, there were no disposable diapers. I used cloth diapers, which stained terribly because of the high ammonia content in her urine. I tried everything but her diapers were never bright white. I read in the newspaper a hack for whitening diapers. When I changed her diapers, I always put them in a diaper pail with water until wash day. The hack suggested putting Cascade dish washer detergent in the diaper pail. It worked beautifully-the diapers were bright white.
Usually on something like that it does take little elbow grease of getting it out. Probably take a few more scrubbing over time. Why i say that as a man and yes , i do clean the bathroom for my wife. So i do learn alot from these videos.

@@JUBARA When all the restrictions are lifted, please come visit my country cottage. You will have a great time. By making cleaning products with what's in our kitchen you can save a lot of money through the year. It's unbelievable how it all adds up. Lovely to meet you Kate.
I’ve done so many time I love it. It works amazing. I would spray it in my tub and let it dry for about an hr. And I never had to scrub i just rinsed it off. It was magic.
I always used either Ajax powder cleanser or Comet powdered cleanser to clean the tub after every use. I never wanted to get in the tub that hadn’t been cleaned and sanitized. I would sprinkle the cleanser around as soon as the water drained out and I use white washcloths that I get very inexpensive at Walmart for cleaning the tub. Wet them down and start rub around and clean off the soapy residue and skin cells, then use the sprayer that I have installed in both of our bathtubs to thoroughly rinse the powder dow the drain. My tubs have always stayed shiny and clean. You letting that rust stain build up and then using a scratchy sponge is actually damaging the glaze on the tub making it more likely to stain always. My mother-in-law never could understand how my tub was so shiny. When you let a stain set into fabric, tubs, wall or whatever the harder it is to remove. Do it immediately, I live in the country too and we have rust in the water too. Those powdered cleansers also have some chlorine type chemical in them that bleach’s and disinfects.
As an owner operator of a cleaning business. Iron Out spray. Fast & easy. Dont forget to spray under faucets, shower heads & sprayers, they have screens which get clogged with iron. Washers, inside toilets, etc. This is about the harshest cleaner i use for iron issues. PS hot liquid in a closed container could burst, be safe.
Just a quick comment, after researching the effect of mixing vinegar and a variety of soaps like Dawn, Castille soap, etc...It appears that mixing them together causes one to weaken the effect of the other. Used separately is different. I, for example, wash pet dishes with a solution of Dawn (2-3 tbsp) and water (16 oz) in a spray bottle, rinse, spray with a vinegar and water solution (1:1) in a spray bottle and rinse again. The vinegar solution removes any soap residue (or saliva residue) in the dishes. I also use this method to wash travel mugs and bottles to eliminate any soap residue. I found a product called "Iron Out" very effective when I had hard water staining in my bathtub. I do use Dawn dish detergent alone to clean the tub and to clean grease stains from clothing (a drop rubbed into the grease stain before tossing the item into the washer)...great results!
I agree. Many of these ‘recipes’ are not based in science. For instance there’s no advantage in heating the vinegar up. Putting baking powder down a sink and following with vinegar doesn’t create the brilliant cleaning blockage clearing volcano many claim- you see action on the outside, but the vinegar works the same with or without the baking powder. It will clear some blockages and not others and is better followed with hot water to remove any grease the vinegar starts to break down. Many people also don’t realise that vinegar is not an effective germ/virus killer. Best use of vinegar is removal of hard water deposits, but it can ruin some unsealed natural stone tiles and can ruin grout also.
I’ve been using the Dawn to remove stains from clothing for years, to great effect. Use full-strength on the stain and leave to dry overnight or longer before washing. Amazingly effective.
Baking soda IS the trick here, ALSO ADD ANY ESSENTIAL OIL TO YOUR VINAGER AFTER HEATING , TO HELP WITH HORRID SMELL I LIKE ORANGE OR TEA TREE.. LET IT SIT 30 MINS THEN SCRUB I ALSO HAVE CHRONIC PAIN SO I USE A CLOTH ON THE END OF A BROOM TO GO ONTO WALLS AND RUB ALL IN TUB ETC.. ONLY SCRUB" WHERE I HAVE TO ...GREAT VIDEO THANXS !!! LOOKS AWESOME
I too live in the country and have tried dawn and vinegar good for cleaning but not the rust that seems to build up I use Barkeepers friend in the spray form and it keeps the tub and shower nice and clean. Thank you for the video
Vinegar is a must as well as Mr. Clean Magic Erasers. PS: I'd like to add that I've been experimenting with different cleaners. Ok, first of all, the mold in my tub was off the charts disgusting, so I discovered toilet bowl cleaners works for that, then, I let that sit for hours, usually when I go to work, then rinse. Lastly, I use the vinegar/Dawn mixture on the chrome fixtures and actual tub along with the magic erasers. Tub is so shiny & clean looking now!
The dawn and vinegar seems to work well with soap scum and shining up the chrome (like you mentioned) but not necessarily hard water stains in my experience. I recently moved down to Florida where I have some pretty harsh well water so my shower gets pretty rusty looking fairly fast. For me I have found two things that work. 1.) Lime-a-way. This is nice because you can spray it, leave it, and rinse it (no scrubbing) but it can be streaky and I find scrubbing doesn’t help it. 2.) Barkeeper’s Friend. This is the one where scrubbing is needed but you can be more thorough. Another con of this for me is it makes my hands peel like a lizard. Those are the two things that I have had luck with using for my hard water stains.
AMAZING!! My shower is sparkling right now. All the dirt glided off so easily. Thank you so much xo I even used it on my stove sand fridge and it got all the caked up dirt and oils off
I'm going to have to try this!! I have been using straight Isopropyl Alcohol for my chrome fixtures and bathroom mirrors, if you can stand the smell, it works great too.
Add the Dawn into the measuring cup of hot vinegar and and stir well and then you will get every drop into the spray bottle and you won't have to shake the spray bottle since you stirred the mixture together after microwaving the vinegar.
I saw a video on You Tube last year about hard water removal. In the comment section someone had suggested to use a straight razor to scrape off the hard water scum on glass beveled shower doors. I tried it on the inside of the door and it worked. That suggestion was the only thing that cleaned the door. It might take a while but to me it's worth the scrubbing time.
@@JUBARA The original I saw about a head ago. Was vinegar, dawn (blue kind) and and alcohol. I used maybe 2-3 -squirts of dish soap and same with the alcohol . Then the rest equal water and vinegar to fill. Sprayed my bathroom down. Then we had the old white subway tiles. Inlet it dig gif a hood 1-2 hours. Could not believe how clean and shiny and I hadn’t scrubbed or rinsed yet! I bet you could get away with using a lot less dish soap. Dawn goes a long long long way with just so much!
Baking soda is great for cleaning but it does often remove the finish on the article being cleaned. Can make stains return easily and they get harder to get rid of.
The key to this hack is leaving it soak over night (or several hours). I hear the vinegar to just at a boil on the stove then remove and pour it over the dawn already in the bottle. This prevents melting a plastic bottle if someone doesn’t have a glass spray bottle. This is my fav shower/tub cleaning hack.
Is an interesting video, your results were surprising what really impressed me was your sound quality and the volume could hear you speak very audibly with my volume turned way down which helps preserve the charge on the battery I wish all videos were that way thanks.
YES-- I cleaned and managed an apartment comples in CAli- with LOTS of glass-- and used this to clean the glass too... and old newspaper to wipe instead of a cloth. (no film or strings left over).. ON the Window clearner--- i used a gallon of water- with a cup of Dawn- and a cup of vinegar to the gallon-- makes a GREAT glass cleaner.!!!
You don’t have to heat the vinegar for it to work. Also if you put some baking soda on the stain first then spray with the vinegar and dawn solution, stains will be one quickly. When you spray the baking soda with the vinegar solution it will foam making clean up quick and easy The vinegar is natural but the dawn is not, so keep that in mind if you think you are using a totally natural cleaning solution. Since down is safe on pets (ie, you can clean oil off a duck with it), I use it regularly.
Dawn is not safe for pets... I used it once to clean off massage oil from my forearms and had an allergic reaction... Don't believe everything you see on TV
I saw what you were doing with the vinegar and Dawn. If you don't mind chemicals, I too live out in the country and my water is so rusty and hard. My tub got really bad, because of being handicapped. It was so dark orange it was disgusting. Anyway, I filled the tub about with about 4 - 5 inches of hot water. Then I put 1 bottle of the "Works" that I got for a dollar at dollar tree and half bottle of "Rust out." I let it sit for about 30 minutes. The part that was under water was completely clean without touching it. But being handicapped I brought one of those scrubbers that goes round and round that I also had to charge up. I was lucky that the concoction worked so well because I didn't have to scrub that hard on the rest of the tub. Anyway I don't use that strong stuff on a reg basis but I just thought if the rust got out of control again you might want to try it. If rusts builds up around the drain, cover with hot water and put a little Lysol rust toilet bowl cleaner in and let sit for a little bit. After rust is gone, drain and rinse cleaner out. Oh by the way, that toilet bowl cleaner, Lysol rust toilet cleaner in the black bottle is the best cleaner that I've found for hard water. Sometimes its hard to find because the stores run out so fast. Whenever I find some, I buy several bottles of it.
Hi Barb! I also have hard water and I have found CLR for the bathroom specifically and it works wonders! It foams as you spray and I let it sit for a bit, scrub a bit and rinse!
@@bonniebon7335 I used a pumice stone in the comode. I now have a water softening system but moved away from the place with the hard water anyway. The water softener system I bought when I lived there worked. I can just imagine what the shower looks like now after me being gone eight years.
I do this on my glass shower doors. So, I spray the solution all over paper towels, stick them to the wet glass and let it set for a few. I think the paper towels connect the solution to the glass, keeping it wet the whole time. Rinse and squeegee and you done!
I did this. Try using a brush on a drill to save your arms. Works well. My Aunt uses wd40 afterwards to coat surface. Smelled a bit but works. Thank yoy5.
After years of scrubbing & using every cleaner recommended to me, i was ready to replace my tub. Happened to stumble upon a Dremel scrubber while following my husband around Lowe's. It comes with various pads & a brush. It's small and fits in small, hard to reach places (whirlpool jets). Brush is perfect for removing headwater deposits from nonslip/textured surfaces. My tub was spotless in a fraction of the time I used to spend scrubbing by hand.
Dr. B's soap,vinegar and baking soda with some essential oils that's my cleaning products. Soft laundry and a clean house. Bought in bulk is still very affordable.
one thing you may want to look into is getting your well bleached. growing up we lived in the country and we had problems with high iron content. we ended up getting a water conditioner to treat it. years later when getting the foot valve replaced in the well the plumber company said that we had an iron algae growing in the well and that's where a lot of the iron was coming from. once the well had been bleached it killed the algae and we no longer had the rust problem. we still have our water conditioner but we go through much less salt now that the iron algae has been killed by the bleach.
@@delee2471 when the plumber was pulling all of the lines out of the well that's when all this rust slough was coming off on his hands which was the proof that there was iron algae in the well
I have not found a product that would take out rust water, however, the dawn and vinegar seem to do somewhat better. I still see some stain on the tub, but not as bad. Hard water is so hard to remove from any shower/tub. Thank you, for the tip.
I learned from a science teacher at my child's school that bars of soap are held together by wax and that's what sticks to the tub and makes a ring. Use liquid soap instead and you will not have a difficult ring to clean.
I sometimes use vinegar to remove rust from delicate iron parts in the garage. It works pretty well but it does take some time, a few hours on some things. That water would drive me nuts! Have you considered a filter on the supply line to the house? A large ( 1.5 quart approx) sand filter with an activated charcoal filter behind it would do nicely, not terribly expensive and could last a month or more between servicing. Thanks for showing us these results 👍
Baking soda makes all the difference. I never heated the vinegar but mixed the three ingredients with water in a spray bottle. I use it on my shower glass and it takes all the soap scum off.
Well, it may have taken more heat and soaking time; it looks like it worked. I have an acrylic tub also and live in the Country with very hard water also. I have always used old fashioned Comet scouring powder with bleach and the cheapest bleach cleaner in lemon scent, (from Walmart), with a kitchen scrubbie like your’s. It works GREAT and is not too abrasive. My tub always looks great after that combo and I use the scrubbie side not just the sponge side. I figure if that plastic scrubbie side does not hurt my ceramic lined Frying pans and pots it should be safe enough for my tub. It is. If You would prefer a more natural cleaner; I use a lemon and the lemon juice with Baking soda on the top of my glass top range. It is the only cleaner that gets the white rings to show the burners, white again. I use the lemon as my scrubbie. I cut it in half. Put baking soda all on the burners that are the worst and greasy. I take 1/2 of the lemon and squeeze all of the juice all over the range top with the burners rings getting the most of each cleaners. I then pick up any pits from the lemon and scrub with the fleshy side of the lemon all over the range top. It works AWESOMELY! I am sure that it works in the tub also. You may need 2 or 3 lemons for a whole tub though. Sorry for this novel. I just wanted to share my hacks from my hot water stained Country home also. 😊👍🏼💕 Thank You for sharing Your cleaning hacks with Us. I also cannot use too much elbow grease either. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Fibromyalgia and scleroderma in my hands. OW! So, I need a good hack that does not make those issues worse. Thank You again for sharing Your hacks that I can try also. 😊💕👍🏼👋🏼
@@flowertrn I thought of something You May have already tried but if not; plug up the center so it holds some liquid. Then let some baking soda and Hydrogen Peroxide with a little water soak on it for a couple of hours. Rinse and scrub with a kitchen scrubby and maybe that will work. Bleach on appliances like the inside of a refrigerator will yellow. You cannot get it off either. That was a Young Woman’s mistake in a first apartment cleaning. I then was told by an older Sister, “Never clean the inside of a Your refrigerator with bleach!” “Thank You, Sis; You could have told Me that before I already did it.” LOL! It was not funny at the time though. 🤣😊👍🏼💕💕👋🏼
Oven cleaner!!! That stuff works amazing!! Spray it on, let it sit a few mins, you barely have to scrub and rinse it away. Completely done and clean in minutes!! Sounds weird I know, but it works! 😉
A large $1.00 can of Comet will get rid of that also. We have hard water also and it was made for that. Also use it to clean the oven stove top. Just wet and let it set for about 20 minutes. The secret is to let it set and don't go at it right away. The longer you let it set the less scrub work you will have.
Vinegar is the best way to clean is disinfectant for your home . The smell goes away quickly n ur home shines n smells fresh plus rid of germs ❤️❤️❤️ yes yes yes baking soda is the best abrasion it dosent scratch n also leaves shine n cleans of odors.. love this vidoe.video.. share more 😍❤️👍
I have plastic tubs and bleach cleaner turned them yellow. I mixed cheap cream of tartar with hydrogen peroxide, which helped a lot. But the 91% isopropyl alcohol rinse really helped. I have used it alone in a spray bottle and it works great. Even on hair dye stains
I live in the country as well.. with ridiculously hard water. I have used the vinegar/baking soda dawn method with some success. Sometimes I spray hydrogen peroxide and let it sit over night.. worked really well for when I let the situation get out of hand in tub and toilet…
I use this recipe for cleaning my tub. I spray it on after I shower, leave it for an hour then use a sponge mop to clean the tub. I have back problems and the mop helps a lot. I don't know that this recipe working kn older hard water stains though.
Am fairly certain that the biggest mistake is using anything abrasive causing tiny scratches on tub or shower surface where dirt, mould, scum can build up. New tubs n showers are smooth n shiny so if you have time to polish your surface with say car polish will this help. Quick wipe down after using and try not scour n scratch or leave cleaning for so long. Best of luck from the land of the Kiwi.
try windshield washer fluid, great for all purpose in kit & bath..also car. cleans scum and dont forget bon ami..it never scratches. i use it on the vette & on windows for tree sap.
Blue is opposite yellow on the color wheel. They neutralize the opposite tone but not necessarily diss appear. Elbow grease and bleach does though. So the scrubbing and the magic eraser did more I think. Dawn is soap so it does clean. Making the solution hot helps melt the grime so it’s easier to scrub it. Baking soda for abrasion is right. But, in the end, you could accomplish all of it with comer which is probably not more toxic than the magic eraser.
Hot vinegar and baking soda is good for drain opener. I put baking soda in the drain and then pour hot vinegar in and it will foam up and clean the drain as it goes down the pipes
I combined [oxiclean spray+ white vinegar( room temperature) + diluted dawn dish soap] . I sprayed them all over the yellowed dirty bathtub and left it for 30 minutes, then I sprinkled backing soda all over and let sit for 10 minutes. Then went on scrubbing( using dish sponge with abrasive side not metal), it worked very well, it is like seeing the light after darkness, a huge difference. I saved me to have to painted and that unpredictable job.
Anything with hydrogen peroxide such as oxiclean mixed with vinegar produces peracetic acid which can be toxic. Always check if DIY combinations are. chemically safe.
I have the same hard water problem here in Oregon with well water. I usually use vinegar straight out of the bottle, wet the shower surround and walls with it, let it "dwell" for half an hour then use a scotch Brite pad. Rinse the calcium down with cold water. Vinegar is about 5 percent acid, which will eat the calcium. Don't be lazy, do it every week.
i use a recipe similar to that as a cleaner for the outside of my house and deck and lawn furniture etc It’s a cup of vinegar a cup of washing soda ( made by arm n hammer in yellow box) a gallon of water use with pressure washer even algae or mold drips down without scrubbing
I have used this solution for years. The septic guys approved it, bath installers approved it and I've never been disappointed.
Since you are already microwaving the vinegar, wipe the microwave afterwards. The vinegar steam is great for that. A 2 for 1.
What makes you think vinegar boils off with water??
Great tip! What I do to clean my microwave is I microwave distilled water mixed with lemon juice long enough where it boils and there’s a steam, and the steam makes it soooo much easier to clean, and it’s without chemicals.

When all the restrictions are lifted, please come visit my country cottage.
You will have a great time.
By making cleaning products with what's in our kitchen you can save a lot of money through the year.
It's unbelievable how it all adds up.
Lovely to meet you Kate.

I’ve done so many time I love it. It works amazing. I would spray it in my tub and let it dry for about an hr. And I never had to scrub i just rinsed it off. It was magic.
Ok next time I will leave it longer to sit. Thanks for the advice😁❤
@@JUBARA You’re so welcome. 🙂
I always used either Ajax powder cleanser or Comet powdered cleanser to clean the tub after every use. I never wanted to get in the tub that hadn’t been cleaned and sanitized. I would sprinkle the cleanser around as soon as the water drained out and I use white washcloths that I get very inexpensive at Walmart for cleaning the tub. Wet them down and start rub around and clean off the soapy residue and skin cells, then use the sprayer that I have installed in both of our bathtubs to thoroughly rinse the powder dow the drain. My tubs have always stayed shiny and clean. You letting that rust stain build up and then using a scratchy sponge is actually damaging the glaze on the tub making it more likely to stain always. My mother-in-law never could understand how my tub was so shiny. When you let a stain set into fabric, tubs, wall or whatever the harder it is to remove. Do it immediately, I live in the country too and we have rust in the water too. Those powdered cleansers also have some chlorine type chemical in them that bleach’s and disinfects.
As an owner operator of a cleaning business. Iron Out spray. Fast & easy. Dont forget to spray under faucets, shower heads & sprayers, they have screens which get clogged with iron. Washers, inside toilets, etc. This is about the harshest cleaner i use for iron issues. PS hot liquid in a closed container could burst, be safe.
Iron out can't be used on fiberglass tubs
I wouldnt use harsh chemicals in yer bathtub. Shes right to use vin
Just a quick comment, after researching the effect of mixing vinegar and a variety of soaps like Dawn, Castille soap, etc...It appears that mixing them together causes one to weaken the effect of the other. Used separately is different. I, for example, wash pet dishes with a solution of Dawn (2-3 tbsp) and water (16 oz) in a spray bottle, rinse, spray with a vinegar and water solution (1:1) in a spray bottle and rinse again. The vinegar solution removes any soap residue (or saliva residue) in the dishes. I also use this method to wash travel mugs and bottles to eliminate any soap residue. I found a product called "Iron Out" very effective when I had hard water staining in my bathtub. I do use Dawn dish detergent alone to clean the tub and to clean grease stains from clothing (a drop rubbed into the grease stain before tossing the item into the washer)...great results!
😊
Whew! That did take a lot of work. 😊
I agree. Many of these ‘recipes’ are not based in science. For instance there’s no advantage in heating the vinegar up. Putting baking powder down a sink and following with vinegar doesn’t create the brilliant cleaning blockage clearing volcano many claim- you see action on the outside, but the vinegar works the same with or without the baking powder. It will clear some blockages and not others and is better followed with hot water to remove any grease the vinegar starts to break down. Many people also don’t realise that vinegar is not an effective germ/virus killer. Best use of vinegar is removal of hard water deposits, but it can ruin some unsealed natural stone tiles and can ruin grout also.

I’ve been using the Dawn to remove stains from clothing for years, to great effect. Use full-strength on the stain and leave to dry overnight or longer before washing. Amazingly effective.
The sound when your scrubbing is so satisfying lol
I liked it too lol
Just tried this. It worked well with the baking soda. Thanks
Baking soda IS the trick here, ALSO ADD ANY ESSENTIAL OIL TO YOUR VINAGER AFTER HEATING , TO HELP WITH HORRID SMELL I LIKE ORANGE OR TEA TREE.. LET IT SIT 30 MINS THEN SCRUB
I ALSO HAVE CHRONIC PAIN SO I USE A CLOTH ON THE END OF A BROOM TO GO ONTO WALLS AND RUB ALL IN TUB ETC.. ONLY SCRUB" WHERE I HAVE TO ...GREAT VIDEO THANXS !!! LOOKS AWESOME
I use Barkeeper's friend. I use a lot less scrubbing with great results. My husband used it on the chrome on his motorcycle too and loved it.
I too live in the country and have tried dawn and vinegar good for cleaning but not the rust that seems to build up I use Barkeepers friend in the spray form and it keeps the tub and shower nice and clean. Thank you for the video
Vinegar is a must as well as Mr. Clean Magic Erasers.
PS: I'd like to add that I've been experimenting with different cleaners. Ok, first of all, the mold in my tub was off the charts disgusting, so I discovered toilet bowl cleaners works for that, then, I let that sit for hours, usually when I go to work, then rinse. Lastly, I use the vinegar/Dawn mixture on the chrome fixtures and actual tub along with the magic erasers. Tub is so shiny & clean looking now!
I use equal parts Dawn blue, water and cleaning vinegar(higher acidity) in a big spray bottle for almost everything except windows. Good stuff.
Very Nice!…Everything looks beautifully clean and sparkly!
Thank you♥️
The dawn and vinegar seems to work well with soap scum and shining up the chrome (like you mentioned) but not necessarily hard water stains in my experience. I recently moved down to Florida where I have some pretty harsh well water so my shower gets pretty rusty looking fairly fast. For me I have found two things that work. 1.) Lime-a-way. This is nice because you can spray it, leave it, and rinse it (no scrubbing) but it can be streaky and I find scrubbing doesn’t help it. 2.) Barkeeper’s Friend. This is the one where scrubbing is needed but you can be more thorough. Another con of this for me is it makes my hands peel like a lizard. Those are the two things that I have had luck with using for my hard water stains.
I'll definitely have to try that!!!😊❤
Gloves
I also used this on some tools that we rusted shut just let it soak for A day or two and it's all brand new.
Florida water is so hard..water softener is very helpful.
Barkeepers Friend= Zud cleanser...which has oxalic acid, but also pumice granules.
AMAZING!! My shower is sparkling right now. All the dirt glided off so easily. Thank you so much xo
I even used it on my stove sand fridge and it got all the caked up dirt and oils off
I'm going to have to try this!! I have been using straight Isopropyl Alcohol for my chrome fixtures and bathroom mirrors, if you can stand the smell, it works great too.
Add the Dawn into the measuring cup of hot vinegar and and stir well and then you will get every drop into the spray bottle and you won't have to shake the spray bottle since you stirred the mixture together after microwaving the vinegar.
Why use a measuring cup for Dawn and not just pour it directly into the bottle?
I use that solution for several things but FOR that HARD WATER issue CLR CAN'T BE BEAT! Fast, little scrubbing, & safe for the enviroment!
I saw a video on You Tube last year about hard water removal. In the comment section someone had suggested to use a straight razor to scrape off the hard water scum on glass beveled shower doors. I tried it on the inside of the door and it worked. That suggestion was the only thing that cleaned the door. It might take a while but to me it's worth the scrubbing time.
Cleaning vinager with dawn blue dish soap in a tube scrubber does a great job too!
Great tip!
Wow I am impressed ! I live in the country and have hard water . Thank you
I didn't think it would work and I already use dawn to clean my shower but you convinced me to try it. Subscribed sis. Thanks
Thank you ❤️
I use the brillo disposable soap pads they work well
Hey hun. I used dish soap to clean my tubs when u run out of cleaning products. It works wonders. Great video!
Thank you so much!!!!😊❤
@@JUBARA
The original I saw about a head ago. Was vinegar, dawn (blue kind) and and alcohol.
I used maybe 2-3 -squirts of dish soap and same with the alcohol . Then the rest equal water and vinegar to fill.
Sprayed my bathroom down. Then we had the old white subway tiles.
Inlet it dig gif a hood 1-2 hours. Could not believe how clean and shiny and I hadn’t scrubbed or rinsed yet!
I bet you could get away with using a lot less dish soap.
Dawn goes a long long long way with just so much!
You might want to consider installing a whole house water filter that would remove the iron minerals in your water!, thanks for the video 😊
Not only easy, but healthy!!!! I cant wait to try this!!!
Yes! Works really well!
I use vinegar and dawn to clean everything. Add Epson salt and u have a great weed killer. 😊 I use the cheapest blue dawn. It has less emollient.
Vinegar and dawn is so good🤗 thanks for the tip about epson salt, I had no idea😊
Sorry I wrote Epson, it's Epsom. Lol
That was fantastic. Resent people lived in the apartment I live in now and they never took up the bath mat. So I'm going to try this solution ❤️
Wow, I'm so glad I found this video!! Such a simple, but super effective hack. Thanks for sharing
Thanks so much 🤗♥️
Baking soda is great for cleaning but it does often remove the finish on the article being cleaned. Can make stains return easily and they get harder to get rid of.
Wow!!! I never thought of heating up the vinegar!! I'm getting ready to clean house and I will hear it up first.
I recently purchased an electric scrub brush. I am going to use it with this mixture. Gonna spray that shower down & scrub the next day.
The key to this hack is leaving it soak over night (or several hours). I hear the vinegar to just at a boil on the stove then remove and pour it over the dawn already in the bottle. This prevents melting a plastic bottle if someone doesn’t have a glass spray bottle. This is my fav shower/tub cleaning hack.
Is an interesting video, your results were surprising what really impressed me was your sound quality and the volume could hear you speak very audibly with my volume turned way down which helps preserve the charge on the battery I wish all videos were that way thanks.
Use a portable drill with a scrub brush helps a ton. Saves a lot of elbow grease and time
YES-- I cleaned and managed an apartment comples in CAli- with LOTS of glass-- and used this to clean the glass too... and old newspaper to wipe instead of a cloth. (no film or strings left over).. ON the Window clearner--- i used a gallon of water- with a cup of Dawn- and a cup of vinegar to the gallon-- makes a GREAT glass cleaner.!!!
You don’t have to heat the vinegar for it to work. Also if you put some baking soda on the stain first then spray with the vinegar and dawn solution, stains will be one quickly. When you spray the baking soda with the vinegar solution it will foam making clean up quick and easy The vinegar is natural but the dawn is not, so keep that in mind if you think you are using a totally natural cleaning solution. Since down is safe on pets (ie, you can clean oil off a duck with it), I use it regularly.
Ridiculous. Another clueless housewife “hack”. They neutralize each other when combined.
Dawn is not safe for pets... I used it once to clean off massage oil from my forearms and had an allergic reaction... Don't believe everything you see on TV
I saw what you were doing with the vinegar and Dawn. If you don't mind chemicals, I too live out in the country and my water is so rusty and hard. My tub got really bad, because of being handicapped. It was so dark orange it was disgusting. Anyway, I filled the tub about with about 4 - 5 inches of hot water. Then I put 1 bottle of the "Works" that I got for a dollar at dollar tree and half bottle of "Rust out." I let it sit for about 30 minutes. The part that was under water was completely clean without touching it. But being handicapped I brought one of those scrubbers that goes round and round that I also had to charge up. I was lucky that the concoction worked so well because I didn't have to scrub that hard on the rest of the tub. Anyway I don't use that strong stuff on a reg basis but I just thought if the rust got out of control again you might want to try it. If rusts builds up around the drain, cover with hot water and put a little Lysol rust toilet bowl cleaner in and let sit for a little bit. After rust is gone, drain and rinse cleaner out. Oh by the way, that toilet bowl cleaner, Lysol rust toilet cleaner in the black bottle is the best cleaner that I've found for hard water. Sometimes its hard to find because the stores run out so fast. Whenever I find some, I buy several bottles of it.
Will destroy fiberglass tubs.
Hi Barb! I also have hard water and I have found CLR for the bathroom specifically and it works wonders! It foams as you spray and I let it sit for a bit, scrub a bit and rinse!
I'll have to go get me some of that for sure. 😁❤ thank you!
I found CLR to be useless for the hard water stains that I had. On the glass shower stall I had to use steel wool and scrub.
@@jeffstanley4593 A pumice stone will suffice and it won't scratch.
@@bonniebon7335 I used a pumice stone in the comode. I now have a water softening system but moved away from the place with the hard water anyway. The water softener system I bought when I lived there worked. I can just imagine what the shower looks like now after me being gone eight years.
I have tried CLR several times And it does not work for me. I’m not saying the product is bad, but again, I have very hard water very old tub.
I do this on my glass shower doors. So, I spray the solution all over paper towels, stick them to the wet glass and let it set for a few. I think the paper towels connect the solution to the glass, keeping it wet the whole time. Rinse and squeegee and you done!
I did this. Try using a brush on a drill to save your arms. Works well. My Aunt uses wd40 afterwards to coat surface. Smelled a bit but works. Thank yoy5.
Does she apply WD40 after each clean or once month? How often?
Thanks for this great DIY bath tub cleaning hack!!🙏🏿😊
Remarkable difference.
First class work.
Bar keeper's friend in a liquid works wonderful. I have an iron problem ( yellowing) and it took it right off.
After years of scrubbing & using every cleaner recommended to me, i was ready to replace my tub. Happened to stumble upon a Dremel scrubber while following my husband around Lowe's. It comes with various pads & a brush. It's small and fits in small, hard to reach places (whirlpool jets). Brush is perfect for removing headwater deposits from nonslip/textured surfaces. My tub was spotless in a fraction of the time I used to spend scrubbing by hand.
Thanks for sharing ! What you did was particularly effective, save my day!
So glad to have helped 🙌
This combination actually works great. I use it all of the time but for better results let it sit for minute and use a scrubber instead of a sponge
This is so good! I tried it. I used yellow Ajax as well
Dr. B's soap,vinegar and baking soda with some essential oils that's my cleaning products. Soft laundry and a clean house. Bought in bulk is still very affordable.
Yes! Dr. B's is 💯 in my book✅ too!~ 💚*🙏🏽
one thing you may want to look into is getting your well bleached. growing up we lived in the country and we had problems with high iron content. we ended up getting a water conditioner to treat it. years later when getting the foot valve replaced in the well the plumber company said that we had an iron algae growing in the well and that's where a lot of the iron was coming from. once the well had been bleached it killed the algae and we no longer had the rust problem. we still have our water conditioner but we go through much less salt now that the iron algae has been killed by the bleach.
Was the bleaching done by a company or did you add the bleach? If so what is the ratio of bleach to water well size?
@@delee2471 the bleaching was done by the plumber who replaced the foot valve in the well. Any plumber can bleach the well.
@@delee2471 when the plumber was pulling all of the lines out of the well that's when all this rust slough was coming off on his hands which was the proof that there was iron algae in the well
Thanks for info & your quick reply !
Wow! What a big difference!
I have not found a product that would take out rust water, however, the dawn and vinegar seem to do somewhat better. I still see some stain on the tub, but not as bad. Hard water is so hard to remove from any shower/tub. Thank you, for the tip.
Gby yes this is the best thing that ai could ever used to clean my bathroom glass doors and everything it’s the best waoo!!
I learned from a science teacher at my child's school that bars of soap are held together by wax and that's what sticks to the tub and makes a ring. Use liquid soap instead and you will not have a difficult ring to clean.
@@nanasloves two different things. You make homemade, the lady is talking about commercial.
You are right! I didn’t know that steric acid can be considered a wax.
I sometimes use vinegar to remove rust from delicate iron parts in the garage. It works pretty well but it does take some time, a few hours on some things. That water would drive me nuts! Have you considered a filter on the supply line to the house? A large ( 1.5 quart approx) sand filter with an activated charcoal filter behind it would do nicely, not terribly expensive and could last a month or more between servicing.
Thanks for showing us these results 👍
Wet & Forget is bomb!!!! You spray it and wait about 30 minutes and you can literally wipe it clean without scrubbing.
Baking soda makes all the difference. I never heated the vinegar but mixed the three ingredients with water in a spray bottle. I use it on my shower glass and it takes all the soap scum off.
I use a very similar solution for cleaning bird feeders, baths, etc. my solution is half vinegar, half water, with just a few drops of Dawn.
Well, it may have taken more heat and soaking time; it looks like it worked. I have an acrylic tub also and live in the Country with very hard water also. I have always used old fashioned Comet scouring powder with bleach and the cheapest bleach cleaner in lemon scent, (from Walmart), with a kitchen scrubbie like your’s. It works GREAT and is not too abrasive. My tub always looks great after that combo and I use the scrubbie side not just the sponge side. I figure if that plastic scrubbie side does not hurt my ceramic lined Frying pans and pots it should be safe enough for my tub. It is.
If You would prefer a more natural cleaner; I use a lemon and the lemon juice with Baking soda on the top of my glass top range. It is the only cleaner that gets the white rings to show the burners, white again. I use the lemon as my scrubbie. I cut it in half. Put baking soda all on the burners that are the worst and greasy. I take 1/2 of the lemon and squeeze all of the juice all over the range top with the burners rings getting the most of each cleaners. I then pick up any pits from the lemon and scrub with the fleshy side of the lemon all over the range top. It works AWESOMELY! I am sure that it works in the tub also. You may need 2 or 3 lemons for a whole tub though. Sorry for this novel. I just wanted to share my hacks from my hot water stained Country home also. 😊👍🏼💕
Thank You for sharing Your cleaning hacks with Us. I also cannot use too much elbow grease either. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Fibromyalgia and scleroderma in my hands. OW! So, I need a good hack that does not make those issues worse. Thank You again for sharing Your hacks that I can try also. 😊💕👍🏼👋🏼
Thank you so much for all the tips♥️♥️♥️♥️
@@JUBARA You are very welcome.
What would you use for getting rid yellowing of my shower tray caused by bathmat tried everything 🤔
@@flowertrn I thought of something You May have already tried but if not; plug up the center so it holds some liquid. Then let some baking soda and Hydrogen Peroxide with a little water soak on it for a couple of hours. Rinse and scrub with a kitchen scrubby and maybe that will work. Bleach on appliances like the inside of a refrigerator will yellow. You cannot get it off either. That was a Young Woman’s mistake in a first apartment cleaning. I then was told by an older Sister, “Never clean the inside of a Your refrigerator with bleach!”
“Thank You, Sis; You could have told Me that before I already did it.” LOL! It was not funny at the time though. 🤣😊👍🏼💕💕👋🏼
bleach is a carcinogen and destructive to lungs and skin; should not be used in your home
Yessssss! thanks so much. I also use this on my stove top for stuff food stains
Oven cleaner!!! That stuff works amazing!! Spray it on, let it sit a few mins, you barely have to scrub and rinse it away. Completely done and clean in minutes!! Sounds weird I know, but it works! 😉
@Riki Johannsen Do you mean oven cleaner on fiberglass?
A large $1.00 can of Comet will get rid of that also. We have hard water also and it was made for that. Also use it to clean the oven stove top. Just wet and let it set for about 20 minutes. The secret is to let it set and don't go at it right away. The longer you let it set the less scrub work you will have.
Bar keeper. Make a paste. Leave it overnight. Go back next day. Start scrubbing. Make another paste. Scrub again. It works!
Vinegar is the best way to clean is disinfectant for your home . The smell goes away quickly n ur home shines n smells fresh plus rid of germs ❤️❤️❤️ yes yes yes baking soda is the best abrasion it dosent scratch n also leaves shine n cleans of odors.. love this vidoe.video.. share more 😍❤️👍
I agree♥️
I’ve heard the spray dawn works great for shower also. It also has to be the blue one.
I have plastic tubs and bleach cleaner turned them yellow. I mixed cheap cream of tartar with hydrogen peroxide, which helped a lot. But the 91% isopropyl alcohol rinse really helped. I have used it alone in a spray bottle and it works great. Even on hair dye stains
Home Depot or Lowes carries this and it works very well= Non Scratch Tub and Shower Scrubber Head with Extension Handle
I live in the country as well.. with ridiculously hard water. I have used the vinegar/baking soda dawn method with some success. Sometimes I spray hydrogen peroxide and let it sit over night.. worked really well for when I let the situation get out of hand in tub and toilet…
I use this recipe for cleaning my tub. I spray it on after I shower, leave it for an hour then use a sponge mop to clean the tub. I have back problems and the mop helps a lot. I don't know that this recipe working kn older hard water stains though.
Can you tell me if they still make jubilee wax from the fifties? It was so good it made things shine.
Yes, I bought some several years ago on amazon
Thank you …going to use this mixture…hope it works ! ❤😊
Am fairly certain that the biggest mistake is using anything abrasive causing tiny scratches on tub or shower surface where dirt, mould, scum can build up. New tubs n showers are smooth n shiny so if you have time to polish your surface with say car polish will this help. Quick wipe down after using and try not scour n scratch or leave cleaning for so long. Best of luck from the land of the Kiwi.
Quick wipe down after every use is the ticket. 😊
try windshield washer fluid, great for all purpose in kit & bath..also car. cleans scum
and dont forget bon ami..it never scratches. i use it on the vette & on windows for tree sap.
Blue is opposite yellow on the color wheel. They neutralize the opposite tone but not necessarily diss appear. Elbow grease and bleach does though. So the scrubbing and the magic eraser did more I think. Dawn is soap so it does clean. Making the solution hot helps melt the grime so it’s easier to scrub it. Baking soda for abrasion is right. But, in the end, you could accomplish all of it with comer which is probably not more toxic than the magic eraser.
Hot vinegar and baking soda is good for drain opener. I put baking soda in the drain and then pour hot vinegar in and it will foam up and clean the drain as it goes down the pipes
It looks shine it, it works pretty good, 🤞 I'will try vinegar 🌺
I combined [oxiclean spray+ white vinegar( room temperature) + diluted dawn dish soap] . I sprayed them all over the yellowed dirty bathtub and left it for 30 minutes, then I sprinkled backing soda all over and let sit for 10 minutes. Then went on scrubbing( using dish sponge with abrasive side not metal), it worked very well, it is like seeing the light after darkness, a huge difference. I saved me to have to painted and that unpredictable job.
Anything with hydrogen peroxide such as oxiclean mixed with vinegar produces peracetic acid which can be toxic. Always check if DIY combinations are. chemically safe.
I TRIED THIS AND IT'S 🖤💜💜💜💜🖤🖤🖤💜💜💜💜 THANK YOU SO MUCH.
READY AND QUICK
💞💞💞💞💞😍😍
You’re welcome!!!🤗 I’m glad it worked for you♥️
I use just a little Zud on a damp paper towel to remove any rust stain. Just follow directions on the can.
I use this to clean my floor, bathroom and kitchen. Only not hot. Dawn is good
I have the same hard water problem here in Oregon with well water. I usually use vinegar straight out of the bottle, wet the shower surround and walls with it, let it "dwell" for half an hour then use a scotch Brite pad. Rinse the calcium down with cold water. Vinegar is about 5 percent acid, which will eat the calcium. Don't be lazy, do it every week.
How dare u say she is lazy maybe she let it sit just so she could mk a video . wow the things people say about a women they don't even know smh
I use vinegar, and baking soda it works that’s just and old school thing. Vinegar also gets rid of bad odors. And for the shine just use windex
i use a recipe similar to that as a cleaner for the outside of my house and deck and lawn furniture etc It’s a cup of vinegar a cup of washing soda ( made by arm n hammer in yellow box)
a gallon of water use with pressure washer even algae or mold drips down without scrubbing
Hi..good job. What material is your bathtub made of -
