Second, the shower or bathtub (or both)If you have a bathtub, fill it up with warm, soapy water (add bleach, a tub cleaner, or a DIY natural house cleaner). Now start scrubbing its outer walls and base and let it sit while you approach the other areas. If you have a shower, then secure a plastic bag filled with vinegar around the shower head to get rid of all the calcium buildup. The shower partition usually gets a cloudy coating due to soap and moisture. Rinse it with plain water and use a squeegee or a sponge to wipe it, and then scrub it with soap or a homemade solution. Rinse the glass screen immediately after scrubbing, else it can get stains or marks from the soap or cleaner. This task should not take more than 10 minutes.Tip: For a homemade shower panel cleaner, mix a half-cup of hydrogen peroxide, a half-cup of isopropyl alcohol, one teaspoon liquid dishwashing soap in a spray bottle. Next, fill the bottle with water and, after closing it, shake the bottle slowly to combine the ingredients without making them foam up. See how these shower enclosures bring a wow to bathrooms
