In this video I tested "magic" chemical free ways to clean your dirty nasty icky grimy textured plastic or fiberglass shower floor!
Bonus cleaning of a glass shower door!
Textured plastic and fiberglass shower floors have an awful ability to lock in grime, dirt and body oils taking comfort away from a space that should feel clean. So I tested a few "magic" cleaning "hacks" and found the best, least odor combination with the least effort and best result.
First method on both the textured shower floor and glass shower door.
-Steam cleaner and hand scrubbing.
-Works best with direct blasting of steam to heat up the grime and some serious elbow grease to get the nasty cleaned up.
PROS
-Zero Chemicals not even vinegar
-Creates a clean surface
-Use a drill connected
CONS
-elbow grease lots of high effort scrubbing needed (can be solved by getting a drill attachment scrubber)
-time consuming
Second method
Cover the floor in a lot of baking soda then add some old towels on top.
1. Pour boiling water on top [boiling white vinegar tested (don't boil vinegar... just don't)]. You can also add some dish soap if you would like but honestly it did not make any difference. Stick with boiling water and be cautious.
2. let towels cool down
3. scrub with the towels, the better you scrub the better the results
SKIP the optional soap and vinegar spray and scrub others mention as combining soap and vinegar creates and awful smell and did not help at all instead scrub scrub scrub.
PROS
-easy so little effort required for so much result
CONS
-smells
-does not work 100% on it's own. Be prepared to scrub. Always with any method be prepared to scrub or use the drill bit brush and make scrubbing easy.
(((((( With no extra work method 1 came out with a cleaner floor but method 2 was much less time consuming. With the final step both methods yielded the same result even after weeks.
The final step. Some serious scrubbing. BUT there is a way to cheat and make the scrubbing easy. DO YOUR ARMS A FAVOR and get a drill brush scrubber attachment. Use that on everything with a little bit of baking soda and water paste. ))))))
For the shower glass
SKIP the steam cleaner
Just use baking soda paste and a drill brush then rinse it off.
Be gentle with the glass it is glass it can break.

Take care of yourself.
