We have a bathroom that is set up to be a complete wet area which makes the cleaning of it easier than other floors. However, as it is a wet area the entire floor is covered in raised dimples that seem to collect dirt and soap scum.
I have tried all sorts of cleaning products from microfiber cloths to harsh liquid cleaners to clean the floor. Often the majority of the dirt was gone but there was always a grey shadow left behind. Especially in the shower where we stand.
I started to become concerned at how I could possibly be damaging the floor with the amount of force that I was using to clean it. That's when my Dad suggested a product called "Shower Power" which is a citrus based cleaner and a bit of patience.
Simply put, apply the cleaning solution and let it soak in to do it's job.
Step 1
Spray a generous amount of cleaning solution on the floor. Be careful, the floor can become quite slippery.Step 2
Gently move the cleaning solution around with a firm bristled brush. I'm usually on my hands and knees by now to avoid slipping and falling over. You are not trying to scrub the floor clean, you are just moving the solution around so that the solution coats the entire floor.Wait 3 - 5 minutes.
Step 3
Gently scrub the floor with the firm bristled brush. Again, you are not trying to clean the floor, you are simply moving any dirt that has loosened to allow the cleaning solution to penetrate into the dirt underneath.Wait 3 - 5 minutes.
Step 4
Rinse the floor with clean water.In our bathroom I just turn on the shower head and flush it all down the drain but a mop and bucket will also work.
You don't have to use Shower Power in order to get these results. I have used a few cleaners with similar results. It's all about letting the cleaner soak and do it's job.
