Remedies For Removing Soap Scum

  1. In a spray bottle mix warm vinegar and half water. Spray where necessary and scrub with a sponge or scrubbing tool such as a brush or scouring pad. Rinse.
  2. Make a thick paste with baking soda and put on a magic eraser and scrub the area in a circular motion, let sit for 10 minutes, then rinse.
