The Harder Way to Clean Soap Scum off Shower Doors

There are a number of methods you can try to get soap scum off shower doors, and most of them have one thing in common—you’ll need a lot of elbow grease to eventually get rid of that soap scum. Here are a few methods you can try:

  1. Vinegar—in a spray bottle, mix 1 part white vinegar with 1 part grease-fighting dish soap. Spray the door, close it and wait 20-30 minutes. Use a cloth to scrub the surface and completely dry it. If the soap scum is really stubborn, you can try applying boiling vinegar (very carefully).
  2. Ammonia—wear rubber gloves and ventilate the bathroom. In a spray bottle, mix 1 part ammonia with 3 parts water, and spray the soap scum. Use a scrub brush to loosen the soap scum, and then rinse the surface clean.
  3. Borax or Baking Soda—mix both borax and baking soda with water to form a paste. Use a damp sponge to apply the paste. Scrub the surface and then rinse.
  4. Commercial Cleaners—spray on, let sit and then start scrubbing. Then scrub some more before rinsing off.

Note: Avoid cleaning the bathroom with vinegar or ammonia at the same time as a chlorine-based bleach. The fumes from ammonia or vinegar and bleach create a toxic environment.
