Cleaning Tips from Dottie

I do home cleanings and have several tips that really work for me.

So many bathrooms have the sliding doors on showers. The ones that aren't glass a polycarbonite or something like that (plastic) after scrubbing them they still looked dull and spotted.

I let them dry thoroughly and then take a cloth and spray Pledge Lemon Oil Cleaner on them they shine look like new and help to repel the soap buildup, it makes the chrome shine as well.

For the tub surround and bathtubs I use shampoo, any chepabrand will work, take one of the body scrubber mitts the ones that are a little scratchy, and scrub the tub or shower stall and it will really shine, the shampoo cuts the soap film.

I also use a strong white vinegar in a spray bottle an spray around the faucets if there is any lime buildup let it sit for a bit and it will take the deposits away.

I always suggest a small spray bottle for my clients to keep in the kitchen and clean the counter tops etc. it is the best anti bacterial spray around. Be careful and do not use on granite.

A mixture of white vinegar water and a drop of Dawn is a awesome window and mirror cleaner they come squeeky clean and no streaks.

Great for laminate floors too.
