How A Potato Is The Key To A Cleaner Shower
By DANIELLE RAMOS-SULLIVAN
In the quest for eco-friendly and cost-effective household cleaning solutions, the humble potato proves to be an unlikely ally, particularly for keeping shower doors spotless.
To employ this method, begin by rinsing a potato to eliminate any dirt and debris, then cut it in half. Take one half and firmly rub the cut side against your shower doors.
Focus on areas with significant buildup, soap scum, or water stains as you scrub. Next, rinse the door with warm water to remove any potato residue and reveal a clean surface.
This approach is generally effective, but for particularly stubborn stains or heavy buildup, it may be necessary to repeat the process, preferably with a new potato.
Moreover, when tackling hard water stains, it's advantageous to first remove any existing soap scum, ensuring the potato's natural acids directly target the underlying limescale.
