Time Saving Bathroom Cleaning Tips
The bathroom is often the most used room in the house and because of this
the hardest to clean and keep clean. By incorporating a few time saving bathroom
cleaning tips into your regular routine, you can cut your cleaning time, save
money on cleaning products and enjoy a cleaner bathroom for longer periods of
time.
When cleaning the bathroom, always start with the mirrors and shower doors.
By cleaning from top to bottom you will save steps. The dirt from the mirrors
and wall can sometimes fall to the floor. If done first, the dirt can then be
cleaned in one step when you sweep and mop the floors.
To clean the mirrors and shower doors, you do not need an expensive commercial
cleaner. The best cleaner and one that doesn't leave streaks, is a simple solution
of water, white vinegar and rubbing alcohol. Simply add water, 1/3 cup of vinegar
and ¼ cup of rubbing alcohol to a spray bottle and shake gently to mix.
Spray on glass surfaces and wipe with a clean white paper towel.
To clean grime and soap scum off the tub and shower stall you will need to
use a two step process. First scrub the area with a white bristle brush to loosen
grime and score the area so that a cleaner can penetrate it more readily. Next,
spray or wipe on a concentrated orange-based commercial cleaning product. Allow
the product to set for thirty minutes and the grime and soap scum should rinse
right off.
After cleaning the tub and shower stall, coat the surfaces with an expensive
car wax. If you do this twice a year it will help to repel dirt and cut cleaning
time in half.
Another great time saving bathroom cleaning tip for your shower stall is to
wipe away all of the water after each use. This will keep the dirt and grime
from building up and make weekly cleaning a breeze.
After you have cleaned the big surfaces, it is time to clean the toilet and
wipe down the counters, sinks and faucets. White vinegar is an expensive and
effective cleaner for these jobs. Simply apply the white vinegar with a cloth
and allow it to set for a few minutes. Then rinse the solution and wipe down
the surfaces.
Other simple bathroom cleaning tips include the use of a bath rug outside
the shower to collect water and dirt, the cleaning of your plastic shower curtain
by tossing it in the washing machine with your dirty cleaning rags and the use
of toothpaste and a scrub brush to shine and clean your ornate metal faucets.
