believe it or not, i use the same soap i bathe with. i have an extra poof that is small (just for this) and when i am going to clean the tub, i will go in and get ready for my shower, then just before i shower i wet the poof, rub my soap on it and get it all bubbly the scrub the tub. then i rinse the tub and the poof and take my shower. it is clean, i am clean and i didnt use any awful chemicals...


I do this too. I keep either a spa glove or a pouff around, dab a little soap on the glove/pouff & just wipe the tub slighly after each use, then rinse.

I did this with my spa glove and my soap last night. My tub has never been cleaner. I had to call my dh in to have a look. Thanks for the tip

Mr Clean Magic Eraser. Works surprisingly well.

Ditto. I use them for all my cleaning; you can't beat them for tub, tiles, walls and counters. Last weekend I was out of cotton balls and used the corner of one to remove nail polish when I was repainting my nails. They are Magic.

A magic eraser testimonial:

A few years ago our youngest daughter drew on our satin finished maple cabinets with a black sharpie....
Yep you guessed it, my wife and her magic eraser cleaned it right off when nothing else would, clorox wipes, soap, etc . I'm a firm believer.

If you visit an HVAC supply house or sometimes a music store that sells soundproofing insulation you can buy sheets of extruded melamine foam.
Exactly the same thing as magic eraser, but super cheap.

I wipe out the tub with a rag after each bath. If that doesn't get all the scum I use a little Borax, baking soda, or BonAmi.
