Getting Clean Can Leave Behind Quite a Mess
The bathroom is a sanctuary for cleanliness… until it isn’t. Using bathroom amenities can relieve and refresh, but extensive use without deep cleaning can create some problems. It’s important to keep an eye on how fog and soap scum contribute to staining on windows, doors and mirrors.
Why Does My Glass Shower Door Fog Up?
Do you ever turn on your shower and realize that your glass door almost immediately begins to fog up? That’s because condensation, or warm water droplets collide with the cool surface of the glass. Hot showers increase humidity and air temperature, causing your shower door to fog up. To help minimize fogging on shower doors and mirrors, try lowering the water temperature, turning on the fan or showering with the door open.
What Is Soap Scum and How is it Formed?
Soap scum is the white, chalky layer that forms on shower curtains and doors when soap is used with hard water, or water with high mineral content. As noted by the U.S. Geological Survey, hard water isn’t necessarily bad. However, it’s pesky and can contribute to mold stains in your shower.
Can You Use Window Cleaners and Squeegees on Your Shower Door?
OK, so you’ve discovered some soap scum in the bathroom. Do squeegees work well in getting rid of hard water, and can you use traditional glass cleaners to wipe away the grime?
Is Using Your Bathroom Squeegee Enough?
Shower squeegees are great for wiping away moisture from shower walls, glass doors and mirrors, but using a squeegee alone will not necessarily prevent soap scum and hard-water build-up. Instead, use the squeegee to wipe away bathroom cleaning sprays after they have been applied.
How Often Should You Clean Your Glass Shower Doors?
Shower doors and walls should be sprayed or wiped down daily, after each use to maintain a clean bathroom and prevent soap scum, mold and mildew stains. It’s a good idea to deep clean showers and tubs on a periodic basis – we suggest weekly or monthly to remove any stains that have occurred. Luckily, OxiClean™ bathroom cleaners make keeping up with cleaning easy.
