Expert Tips for Removing Stubborn Water Spots on Shower Glass

Removing water spots from shower glass can be a common challenge due to the mineral deposits left behind by hard water. Here are several methods you can try to help effectively remove water spots from your shower glass:

1. Vinegar Solution
- Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle.
- Spray the solution onto the water spots and let it sit for a few minutes.
- Scrub the glass with a non-abrasive sponge or cloth.
- Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a clean cloth to prevent new spots.

2. Lemon Juice
- Squeeze fresh lemon juice onto the water spots.
- Allow it to sit for a few minutes.
- Scrub the glass with a sponge or cloth.
- Rinse well with water and dry.

3. Baking Soda Paste
- Mix baking soda with enough water to form a paste.
- Apply the paste to the water spots and let it sit for about 10-15 minutes.
- Scrub the glass gently with a sponge or soft brush.
- Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean cloth.

4. Commercial Cleaners
- There are many commercial cleaners available specifically formulated to remove water spots from glass surfaces. Follow the instructions on the product label for best results.

5. Rubbing Alcohol
- Dampen a cloth with rubbing alcohol.
- Wipe the cloth over the water spots until they are removed.
- Rinse the glass with water and dry.

6. Steam Cleaning
- If you have a steam cleaner, you can use it to effectively remove water spots from shower glass. The heat and pressure of the steam can help loosen and dissolve the mineral deposits.

7. Preventive Measures
- Consider installing a water softener to reduce the mineral content in your water, which can help prevent future water spots. 
- Use a squeegee or microfiber cloth to wipe down the shower glass after each use to prevent water spots from forming.

Remember to always test any cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area of the glass first to ensure it does not cause damage. Additionally, regular maintenance and preventive measures can help minimise the recurrence of water spots on your shower glass. Use a shower cleaner regularly to keep your glass clean.
