How to Clean A Large Shower Floor Or Deep Bathtub

Large shower floors and deep bathtubs look like they are hard to clean. This cleaning tip might make it a whole lot easier.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Soap Scum Remover, or Bathroom Cleaner That Removes Soap Scum
• A Shammy or String Mop
• A Bucket
• Sponge Mop

1. 

   Spray a good coating of soap scum remover on the floor of the shower or inside of the bathtub. Let the remover stand on the floor or bathtub for about 10 minutes.

2. Fill the bucket with very warm water. Dip the mop in the bucket and wring it out just to where it is not dripping.

3. Mop the shower floor, or mop out the inside of the tub from the rim to the base. The soap scum remover should be sudsing as you mop.

4. Rinse the shower or tub, using the bucket. If the shower or tub has a shower head with a spray hose, then this will make rinsing very easy.

5. If the walls of a shower are very tall, then you can spray the remover on the walls, and use a damp sponge mop to clean them. A good rinsing aid for the walls of a shower is a very big, very wet rag. Dip it into your bucket, and barely ring it out. It will take the soap off and rinse at the same time.

Tips & Warnings

• Shammy mops are better than string or rag mops. They soak up more water and dirt.
• Use the recommended cleaner for your tub or shower if it is a special brand or the maker recommends a certain type.
