I used 99p white vinegar to remove hard water marks from my shower door

Despite using a squeegee after every shower, soap scum, which is a mixture of hard water and oils, were building up on my shower screen.

They had become so stubborn that they were not coming off with any specialist cleaning spray I had in the cupboard.

After using white vinegar for a lot of other cleaning tasks, I decided to put it to use to see if it worked on removing the marks.

White vinegar is hailed as an eco-friendly affordable cleaning product, often used to target limescale as well as soften laundry.

The product is naturally acidic, and can help to cut through dirt, grime as well as calcium carbonate which makes up limescale deposits.

To clean the glass I used my Stardrops White Vinegar Spray which I purchased from Asda for just 99p.

I sprayed the product liberally onto the glass, making sure there was a towel underneath to catch the excess vinegar.

The product was then left to work for 15 minutes before I took a clean microfibre cloth and gently buffed the product away.

I thought I would need to scrub slightly on the stubborn marks because nothing else had worked, but the vinegar managed to completely get rid of them.

The scent of white vinegar did get a little overpowering due to leaving it for 15 minutes, so next time I think I will mix it with some washing up liquid to lift the strong scent.

Mira Showers recommended purchasing a squeegee to use after every shower to prevent water marks and limescale from reappearing on the shower doors.

Some feature a holder that sticks to the shower wall, making them easy to grab when needed.

After showing, make sure to remove all of the moisture from the glass to stop the watermarks from appearing, and it is also recommended to take a daily shower cleaning spray to keep the glass sparkling clean.

Mira Showers said: “Keep your bathroom well ventilated to help water evaporate quickly from your shower screen.

“Droplet marks are more likely to appear when water sits on the glass for long periods. If your bathroom is poorly ventilated due to small windows, no extractor fan, or you’re having problems with damp, find out how to reduce bathroom condensation.

“If you have space for some decorative accessories, consider buying bathroom-friendly plants that absorb moisture.”

Due to not having a ventilation fan, it can be hard to keep moisture levels down, so I also use a dehumidifier in order to keep marks from appearing.
