The Most Effective Ways to Keep Your Shower Cubicle Doors and Screens Looking as Good as New

A properly-maintained bathroom and shower cubicle says a lot about your household, especially if you have guests around. Besides, having a clean bathroom and shower cubicle not only gives your guests the right impression ? it's for your own peace of mind as well. If you already have a good idea of what it takes to clean your bathroom but are not quite sure about cleaning and maintaining your shower cubicle, here's what you should know.

Cleaning your shower doors and screens

The good news is that cleaning your shower doors and screens does not take a long time, especially if you make sure to clean them every week. But what is the best and most effective way to clean your shower doors and screens? Whilst you can purchase a cleaning product especially designed for cleaning doors and screens, you can always make your own cleaning mixture from products you already have at home. This would include laundry powder, a sponge, cloth, and so on.

The mixture

Believe it or not, one of the best cleaning solutions you can use for your shower doors and screens is a mixture of laundry powder and water. Simply mix a portion of laundry powder with water until it forms into a paste. Then, apply the paste to your shower screen with a soft, microfibre cloth in a gentle yet firm scrubbing motion. Since this solution is abrasive, make sure to rinse it thoroughly afterwards.

Preventing water marks

One issue for those with shower cubicles is water marks on the doors and screens. If you want your doors and screens to be as clear and streak-free as possible, use a big sponge or squeegee (the same type used for cleaning cars and windows). After you rinse your shower screen and door, use the sponge or squeegee to wipe off any excess residue from the screen and door?s surface. This should help remove any streaks or water marks on the screen and door.

Making the glass sparkly-clean

The last step you need to know about if you want your shower cubicle?s doors and screens to be sparkly clean is to mix one part cold water with an equal part of white vinegar. Use a microfibre cloth to wipe this mixture across the shower screen and door?s surface. Afterwards, buff the glass with another piece of dry microfibre cloth. The white vinegar is very effective at bringing out the glass?s shine.

So that's it ? it's simple and easy to clean and maintain your shower cubicle?s doors and screens if you know what to do and which products to use. With a little bit of effort, your shower cubicle ? in fact, your entire bathroom ? will look as good as new.
