I’m happy to say that this absolutely worked for me. I did heat up the Dawn/vinegar solution and I applied it hot. I did this after filling the bath with hot/warm water and letting that sit for 15 minutes then draining (read that somewhere else). I also let the cleaning solution sit on the trouble areas for 10 minutes. The soap scum and hard water buildup wiped right off with a soft cloth (I used cloth diapers because they are soft and very absorbent). Some of the toughest areas had to have a second treatment but it worked 100% on our acrylic bathtub and chrome fixtures. Thank you!
thank you for sharing
I tried but when the shower dried it has a white haze to it. I rinsed good everything. Helppp
WOW! I was very skeptical. I’ve tried so many different ways of getting my acrylic tub clean. This was IT! After watching your video, I immediately combined Dawn with cleaning vinegar and a little water in a spray bottle. Went immediately to my tub and sprayed it on. Started lightly rubbing with a simple sponge, and I was TOTALLY AMAZED at just how NEW my tub looked - no joke! I then cleaned my sinks and acrylic cabinets. I was on Cloud Nine last night with this solution. Trying it on toilets today.
This is awesome feedback! Appreciate you taking the time here.
I use half dawn and half distilled white vinegar. Works great on my shower doors too. The first time you use it might take a bit more effort if you haven't effectively cleaned before, but after maintaining a clean shower is easy. Every few days i just spray the shower, let it sit for 15 minutes and rinse it off. Works great on your stainless steel kitchen sinks and porcelain bathroom sinks too. Oh, use it to clean my vinyl house siding too, and my golf cart, my bbq grill, sliding glass doors and windows(on the outside of the house only) and takes rust off too. In order for my rust spots to disappear though you need to seal the leak if there is any dripping, like with a towel or a something. Then let sit for about an hour with reapplying every 15 minutes or so and the rust should wipe off. All kinds of different things! Just an FYI, DO NOT use with steel wool, like an SOSpad or steel wool scratcher, it turns rusty instantly!
That’s what i use most the time , but somettimes i def use bleach or commit cleanser
Don't use vinegar on these plastic shower surrounds. The vinegar will eat away at the protective coating and cause yellowing and then cracking. Most of the yellow stains people are trying to remove from their showers are areas where the coating had been worn away.
Worked great!! Mixed 1/2 cup Dawn with 1/2 cup vinegar. Microwaved 30 sec. in Pyrex. Sprayed on my pretty soap scummy jacuzzi tub. Waited 10 min. Wiped off with an old washcloth. I think it would have worked better if I would have shifted to a second washcloth 1/2 way through, as the back half of the tub needs another coat. I’ve tried acrylic hot tub cleaners and the recommended jacuzzi cleaner. This works better than either one.
Thank you for the great feedback!
I use these to spray after showering and then squeegee the seat. I ve had my acrylic shower for about 6 years. There is a slightly yellow scummy build up in some areas. I found using a plastic scrubber on a power drill works wonders! The moldy silicone caulk Will have to be replaced, however. Always keep the bleach mixture with water in a spray bottle and the Dawn and vinegar bottle in there! Use it after every shower! Also buy a spray car wax to put in the walls once you’ve cleaned them really well and the water will be repelled!
would have prefered seeing you clean something with buildup or soapscum so I can see that it works
This was simply to show how to keep acrylic clean. I will try to find a soap scum shower and show you how it works on actuall build up.
Yeah he has an absolutely new shower!
Any suggestions for stains from hard water or essential oils or epsom salts. I have tried vinegar, dawn etc. It seems to go below the surface.
Several people commented that they used 1/2 Dawn and 1/2 Vinegar but you are saying to use Dawn, vinegar and water. So, 1/4 Dawn in the spray bottle but what is the ratio of vinegar and water?
Yeah, he fumbled through the mixture ratio. Don't even know what it is.
After cleaning shower wall with vinegar and dawn do I need to rinse the wall with water
I think my tub is fiberglass , now I’m not understanding what the difference between Arcrylic and fiberglass is ?
What if you've already damaged your acrylic tub, will this solution still work?
Vinegar is an acid. Never use it on acrylic or other plastic tubs or showers.
Tried but soap scrum is still there. But thanks.
thank you
I wanted to see how you "rinsed" it off!
I can't have a shower without a handheld shower head/hose to clean the shower. Way too much of a hassle to clean the shower with a fixed shower head
Thank you! Thank you! 😊 😘
We have a fiberglass one piece walk-in shower unit and it's been a challenge trying to get the years or soap scum and hard water off the walls. We've tried every conceivable product out there to no avail. In addition, many of these UA-cam tutorials don't really help with addressing this major concern which I know other folks out there have. Certainly this video doesn't.
I know it's a year too late. Buy Lava soap (bar soap) from Walmart. I usually wear gloves but you don't have to. Use it like any other bar soap (work into nice later on your hand) and clean each surface like you would clean your own skin. Should get rid of the soap scum and hard water.
Forgot to add, buy Gel-Gloss from Lowe's and apply it to your shower using paper towel and buff it with same paper towel.
Did you ever find a solution. I have the same problem you have with soap scum and hard water. The soap and vinegar solution didn’t cut it. Thanks.
@@stevenreichertart That concoction was a bunch of crap. We are just going to contract someone to refinish the fiberglass shower.
@@dexterdenoon6112 thanks and good luck refinishing
What about if you have to use something harsher to get rid of mold on grout/caulk?
You Have remove the moldy silicone caulk and Replace. I’m doing mine myself. Of course, I talked with a bathroom reissue person and watched these videos.
Did you even scrub the wall?
Does this cleaning solution apply to yellowing walls??
Try it hot with a plastic scrubber on a power drill and you should see great results!
Please advise. Appears Dawn dishwashing soap is not available in Australia where I am. Do you know any equivalent I can use? I have mixed white vinegar with Palmolive Washing up detergent for now.
mate im in aus too. just use morning fresh - same same
Where you get the squeegee?
Yellowing around acrylic bathtub...what to clean it with?
The yellowing is caused by using things like vinegar on it. It is where the protective coating has been eaten away by the acidity of the vinegar. The only way to fix it is to replace the tub.
I have it too.....before trying this and this didn't do anything. I even let it sit over night. Dawn and vinager did nothing😑
@@MAGAMANYou have a recommendation of what to use? What about using a dilute solution of vinegar instead of full strength?
Is this safe for septic systems?
Yes, no issue at all... Thank you
Dave i around it now
Time for an update video manufacturer says NO DAWN
I have a bone coloured acryi. Tub with orange coloured stain at bottom I’ve tried soap scum remover which can’t take it all off. Would this work? Any ideas?
That’s a tuff one when it’s a stain embedded into the polymer. Worst case locate a local tub resurfacing company who may have the proper stain remover or resurface back to a bone color. Hope this helped you!
It's not a stain, its damage caused by using harsh chemicals on your plastic tub. the ore you scrub on it, the worse it will get. The only fix is to replace the tub.
It sounds like bleach stain. Pour hydrogen peroxide over it.
What ratio of vinegar and water?
Fill the spray bottle with 1/4 cup Dawn. Then add white vinegar to before the neck of the bottle. Shake and spray.
@@famlbk thank you!
I wish he told us what kind of scrub he was using. For the life of me, I can't find it online. I suspect it's not meant for bathrooms.

Fabulous! I was looking for a mini toxic homemade cleaner! 2 questions: can you use a microfiber cloth?
Also, what’s special about Dawn? I typically have eco dish soaps-will they work well?
Nothing beats Dawn. Absolutely nothing. Cuts through everything, best dish soap hands down.
Vinegar is acidic? Wouldn’t this eat into the acrylic?
Yes, it will destroy the coating on the tub.
what is the name of the tool you are using to clean the shower? I want one

Did nothing. Does not work.
Norwex and get rid of all of the chemicals.... you won't need all that stuff to clean it like new!!!!! what a shame
It doesn’t look that clean
what looks dirty? he cleaned an already clean shower for an example
This is the BEST that we have found. Keep searching, im sure there are other UA-camrs that have something that fits your needs,
Dawns toxic as hell!
Sounds like horse shit to me. You have never cleaned one!
