We all love big shower glass doors but it’s pretty hard to clean them especially if you have hard water in your home. We gathered the best glass cleaner for your shower so you could use it to maintain sparkling clean glass and avoid those harsh water stains.
Best glass cleaners for your shower glass doors.
Best overall
Sprayway Ammonia Free Glass Cleaner
Very inexpensive, foam glass cleaner that is suitable for glass and fiberglass shower doors and won’t leave any streaks. Will dissolve mild soap scum, so you won’t need to work hard to remove it. Best overall, just follow the instruction!
Best Natural
Home-made mix of equal parts vinegar and dish soap. This mix can help with hard water stains and a good glass cleaner for shower doors. Use with caution if your shower is tiled with natural stone since vinegar can stain it. Otherwise it’s a great natural cleaning solution that helps with maintenance cleaning every other week.
Best for soap scum
Rejuvenate No Scrub Soap Scum Remover works well on real glass shower doors that don’t have too much of a build up. If a shower hasn’t been cleaned properly in a long time and/or have a heavy build up, I would recommend to use CLR – this cleaner has a professional strength but available literally everywhere. This is the best solution to remove a heavy build up without much scrubbing. Must have even if you clean your shower on a regular basis but have a very hard water.
Best for mold and mildew
If you have a real mold issue in your house, we would suggest to call a specialist since it should be treated by professionals since products for mold are super strong and proper caution should be used. If you’re just experience a simple mildew due to poorly ventilated areas, any product with bleach will help you to remove stains. For example, regular Clorox spray for bathroom will help you to remove unwanted stains.
Best for hard water
CLR is the best cleaner for hard water deposits, especially if your shower hasn’t been cleaned properly in a while. Alternative solution – is to prevent a build up by cleaning shower doors regularly. Using squeegee after each shower will help to prevent any kind of build up on the doors.
Best Daily
You won’t need to use any cleaner everyday if you just use a squeegee after each shower. This will allow to prevent a hard water build up and glass will always look like new.
Best multipurpose
Bio Clean Eco Friendly Hard Water Stain Remover is great not only for glass doors but it works on different surfaces – chrome, tile, fiberglass, porcelain and even boat! Huge plus it’s eco friendly while having a great cleaning power!
Best squeegee
Any professional squeegee from Amazon or Home Depot. Regular plastic household squeegees do not work very well, so look for a professional thin steel squeegee with hard rubber
How to clean shower glass doors.
There are many different methods to clean a shower glass door but let’s assume we have a routine weekly cleaning. If you don’t have any build ups, just use a regular (preferred) shower cleaner and I would recommend to use regular cotton rags and not microfiber. Microfiber can leave a residue on glass so it will be visible and shower won’t be as spotless as it supposed to be. If shower door is cleaned after each shower with a squeegee, then a regular cleaning once a week is more than sufficient to keep your shower sparkling.
Cleaning solutions for shower glass doors can be used on many similar surfaces: windows, mirrors, etc. If you use something more stronger than a daily cleaner, we would suggest to read label first to avoid any unpleasant surprises.
