I don't know if anyone else has trouble getting theirs clean but I just found something that works. I tested some toilet bowl cleaner from clorox on a corner to make sure it wouldn't etch the door. I washed it off almost immediately and the door looks new!!! No hard water stains and I used a sponge then dried it no scrubbing. Had to pass that on I thought it may help someone else.

you want to be real careful what you clean with and how you mix cleaning stuff. every so often somebody tries removing those toilet bowl stains with chlorine bleach then when that doesn't do it they toss in some ammonia cleaner and get a lung full of phosgene gas, the stuff they used in ww1. some where in my bookmarks i've got a site that lists common stuff around a house that will work as well if not better than the commercial "hazmat" stuff, i'll try to dig it up and post it

Alka Seltzer to clean the toilet. I'm serious! drop in a couple of the tablets and let it sit for a few minutes. Then just go in with the toilet brush and give it a quick scrub. That stuff is amazing!

Lemon Juice on shower doors. Slice a lemon in half, squeeze it just enough to get the juice running ~ then rub it on the door. Lemon juice eats through anything. It's almost as good as "Momma Spit". LOL! :D

Grapefruit juice works well. You could use a solution
of 1-1/2 parts vinegar to 1 part water, or a good
baking soda solution.
Be careful when using bleach/ammonia...the mixture
produces gas that can kill you.

"gases that can kill you", thats the one i mentioned, "phosgene" one of the original military gases you can make all by yourself at home if you get real unlucky.

You can make bathtub napalm with diesel fuel and
2-3 bars of soap...lots of nasty stuff can be made
very easily. :(

Works for me.

No fuss. No muss.

My shower has been clean for years. Just dust. That's all.
