How to Clean a Glass Shower Door
Step 1: Make the DIY solution
Combine one part vinegar with three parts water in a microwave-safe bowl. Then microwave it for one minute. After the liquid has cooled, pour it into an empty spray bottle.
Tip: You can avoid a vinegar scent by mixing a drop of essential oil into the mix.
Tip: If your shower is made of stone vinegar may damage it, in this case, use dishwashing liquid instead of vinegar.
Step 2: Spray and leave it
Spray a coating of the mix on the door, making sure the entire surface is covered evenly. Allow the solution to do its magic for about three to five minutes.
Step 3: Dry it
You will want to dry this from top to bottom, dry the glass using a microfiber cloth. When it has dried, you can use the cloth to buff out any streaks or smudges left behind. Then leave the shower open to ensure any residual moisture evaporates.
What is the best cleaner for glass shower doors?
You can also dip a scrub sponge into baking soda and scrub the glass. The baking soda will act like an abrasive, while the vinegar spray will dissolve the hard water spots. Then rinse the shower glass off with water.
Can I use Windex (US) or Windolene (UK) on my shower door?
As Windex is not available in the UK, the closest product is Windolene, however, it does not contain the same formula. Windex glass cleaner contains a substance called ammonia.
To replicate this, you could try using Windolene and add a little bit of household ammonia to it. If you do this, spray down the shower doors and then wipe it off with a cloth. This will help you remove streaks and smudges from the surface.
