When I need an answer to a question, I know just where to go. Mom's Pantry friends are the most helpful, informative group out there. Here are their suggestions when asked about homemade tub and shower cleaners:

  • Selina Wetherhold Dawn & Vinegar 1:1
  • Anita Gibson I use vinegar mixed with dish soap all the time showers right off 
  • Angela Sheffield Mainor I use Dawn & Vinegar also. Cleans awesome and I love the smell.
  • Carol Beal Equal parts of Original Dawn and vinegar. If you use the newer Dawn (higher concentration) use less. Spray on shower, let it work for a couple if minutes, scrub with white pad and rinse. Cleanest shower/tub ever!
  • Megan Perrow Marney Good old baking soda mixed to a paste with some water.
  • Kaylin Smith I have awful well water this gets everything off : I sprinkle baking powder and then spray a vinegar dawn mix and let it fizz and sit for 20 minutes then use a scrub brush and it comes off.  This also works for grout
  • Beverly Pointer  I have used a whole bottle of this mixture . Love it, it will really shine it up. 8 oz. distlled vinegar, 4 oz. lemon juice , 2 oz. dawn dish soap, 2 tsp. baking soda, 10 oz. water. Be sure to mix it up in a large container. It will really foam up
  • Sammi Easton Baking soda and salt make a paste rub it around the tub and rinse off. I never buy cleaners. I also use this on the stove
  • Maxine Berry-Wheeler 1 part blue dawn, 2 parts hydrogen peroxide. This is my go to cleaner.
  • Juanez Ferrell Dawn (1 TSP) vinegar(1 cup) and baking soda(1 cup) and a gal warm water. Works on tubs and as a floor cleaner. Really whitens grout!
  • Juanez Ferrell I love peroxide and baking soda too for grout. Mix to a paste and scrub in with a brush and wipe up
  • Lisa Young Schawe For my jet tub, I use about a cupful of dishwasher detergent & run it through the jets twice, then curb everything visible with a toothbrush. Works well!
  • Victoria Penfold For the shower and tub, sounds weird but use a used dryer sheet. It gets ride of soap scum. For tub jets, fill the tub with warm water and add laundry detergent, turn the bubbles on for 10 min and you can scoop the hair, scum and yuck out before draining... Then fill again with clean water and turn the bubbles back on to rinse out.
  • Tina Herrmann-Mehl Dawn and hot vinegar. _
  • Debi Hannon Bell I use blue (original dawn) lemon juice and vinegar. Takes off soap scum and hard water stains.
