How to clean mildew off of a vinyl shower curtain. This is a simple way to remove stains from your shower curtain.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 1 empty spray bottle
  • 1 bottle of bleach
  1. Step 1

    First fill your empty spray bottle with straight bleach. Do not dilute with water. I find using straight bleach works best. Be careful not to get bleach on anything that will change color or be damaged.

  2. Step 2

    Put some old rags or towels on the floor by your tub. Put your vinyl shower curtain on the inside of the tub. Extend it open and reach around with the spray bottle. Spray liberally on mildew stains and soap scum stains. Allow the bleach to sit for at least 20 to 30 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    After 30 minutes take a large cup and fill it with hot water. Carefully pour water down the curtain. I find hot water works best for rinsing the bleach. Repeat this process until all of the bleach is removed. Allow to drip dry.
