There is an endless battle against streaky, soap-splattered shower doors it seems.
While many people love to avoid doing this mundane chore, a surprising hack shared by hopes to change cleaning shower glass without costing a small fortune.
Thankfully it’s not a pricey cleaner, nor is it something that shoppers need to hunt down in specialty stores.
According to Funeral Guide, the combination of white vinegar and bicarbonate of soda holds the key to sparkling results and it’s affordable.
Cleaners can pick up a 568ml bottle of white vinegar at for just 35p, while a 200g tub of baking soda costs only 65p.

For as little as £1, these kitchen cupboard essentials can transform the shower glass with minimal effort.
Funeral guide said: “People often overlook the potential of everyday items lurking in their kitchen cupboards.
“Vinegar’s natural acidity cuts through limescale and soap scum, while bicarbonate of soda’s gentle abrasiveness ensures you won’t damage the glass.”

Start by mixing one part white vinegar with one part warm water in a spray bottle. Lightly spray the solution over your shower door, ensuring all the glass is covered. Let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes to work its magic.
Meanwhile, create a paste by mixing two tablespoons of bicarbonate of soda with just enough water to form a thick, spreadable consistency.
With a soft sponge, use the paste to gently scrub the glass in circular motions. The natural fizzing reaction between the vinegar residue and the bicarbonate will lift away stubborn deposits, leaving your shower door clearer than ever.
After scrubbing, rinse thoroughly with warm water to remove any residue. To finish, wipe the glass dry with a microfiber cloth or squeegee. For added shine, buff with a dry, lint-free cloth.
“The beauty of this method is in its simplicity,” notes Funeral Guide.
“It’s effective, environmentally friendly, and saves you from harsh chemicals found in many commercial products.”
