There are some really tricky bits in a bathroom, aren\u2019t there? Behind the toilet, around the laundry basket – and just how to clean between sliding shower doors?<\/p>\n

Never fear, we can help you with these pesky problems! Read on for our hints and tips to help you make your bathroom a sparkling wonderland.<\/p>\n

How To Clean Between Sliding Shower Doors?<\/h2>\n

Shower doors can get pretty disgusting, can\u2019t they? Keeping them as shiny as the rest of your bathroom can be tricky, especially if they are the sliding type!<\/p>\n

Cleaning between them is not the easiest thing in the world to do, but it can make a world of difference.<\/p>\n

Showers, although they are technically clean places, can really show up the grime – water marks<\/a>, shampoo streaks, and even minerals from the water itself.<\/p>\n

You want to clean these regularly, to prevent a build up of dirt, grime, and even bacteria that can cause health problems.<\/p>\n

You can do this in a few different ways:<\/p>\n

Use a sponge stick<\/h3>\n

A cylindrical one is the best option for this type of cleaning, because it can get into the small areas.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Soak the sponge in your chosen cleaning liquid, ensuring that it absorbs as much fluid as possible.<\/li>\n
  2. Squeeze the sponge through the overlap of your shower door, making sure the sponge reaches all the way to the other side.<\/li>\n
  3. Scrub the sponge back and forth vigorously, to get as much of the dirt and grime as you can.<\/li>\n
  4. Remove the sponge and rinse it out, then soak it in clean water and repeat the above process.<\/li>\n
  5. Take a dry sponge and repeat the process again. This time you are trying to remove the excess water so you don\u2019t get streaks, or worse, rust.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Use a high pressure hose<\/h3>\n

    This can be great for cleaning, not least because it requires very little effort on your part!<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Apply soapy water through the gap of your sliding door, making sure you cover as much surface area as you can.<\/li>\n
    2. Using a high pressure hose, spray clean water over the area, washing away the soap and watching the shine emerge!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Use vinegar and baking soda<\/h3>\n

      These two combined are an excellent cleaning partnership – and they are super cheap and all natural too.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Make a paste with the baking soda and vinegar<\/a> – a half and half ratio will be fine.<\/li>\n
      2. Spread it liberally on the areas you wish to clean, making sure you get through the gap of your sliding doors.<\/li>\n
      3. Rinse it away with a hose, the shower or a jug of clean water. This method will leave a really good, clean result.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Can You Remove Sliding Shower Doors To Clean?<\/h2>\n

        Although it can be a bit more of a faff to remove the doors entirely rather than clean them in situ, it can give better results.<\/p>\n

        Removing your shower doors is actually not too hard, and it gives you a chance to clean them all over.<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Remove the stopper at the bottom of the door – this will be a screw, holding a black rubber stopper.<\/li>\n
        • Pull the door outwards slightly, until it is just held on by the top frame – be careful doing this, and ensure you have a good grip on the door!<\/li>\n
        • Rest the door on a flat, safe surface and clean it well. Pat it dry afterwards, to maximise the shine.<\/li>\n
        • Reinstall the door by pushing the panel into the top frame and securing it, then lowering it to the lower track. Screw in the screw, replace the rubber stopper and you\u2019re all done!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
