by Angela V Do you get frustrated with hard water spots and soap scum stains in your bathroom’s shower glass walls? Those can be tough to clean, and they can make your otherwise clean bathroom look dirty!
I used to be a fan of bleach and commercially available products designed to quickly get rid of soap scum. Some even advertised the product as no scrub solutions.
Those strong chemicals worked, but they were harsh, had strong smells, and were irritants.
I remember needing to open windows and getting fresh air into my lungs after spraying those and cleaning my bathrooms. That couldn’t be healthy!
Once I became a mom, all that changed, and I switched my cleaning products to mostly natural solutions, without the strong chemicals I used to use regularly.
In this post, I am sharing what I use to clean my glass shower doors at home to get rid of all the unwanted water spots and soap scum quickly, with NO strong chemicals.
