Best tips to clean different parts of the bathroom
How to clean bathroom faucets
How to clean bathroom faucets
Bathroom faucets are a breeding ground for water spots and soap scum. To clean them effectively, follow these tips:
- Start by wiping the faucet with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt.
- Create a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar or a mild bathroom cleaner.
- Use a soft toothbrush or old toothbrush to scrub hard-to-reach areas.
- Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry to prevent water spots.
- You can also buff the faucets with a dry microfibre cloth to make them SHINE, such as the Vileda Bathroom Cloth or Actifibre Cloth!
How to clean the shower head
Shower heads can accumulate mineral deposits over time, causing poor water flow. Here's how you can clean them:
- Remove the shower head, if possible, and soak it in a white vinegar solution.
- Use a toothbrush or an old brush to gently scrub the rubber nozzles where the water comes out. Alternatively, you can use a non-scratch sponge, such as the Vileda Scrunge Multi-Use Scrub Sponge.
- Rinse thoroughly, reattach the shower head, and test for improved water flow.
How to clean the toilet
A clean toilet not only looks better but also prevents potential odors and bacteria buildup. Here's how to clean the toilet cistern:
- Turn off the water supply to the toilet.
- Remove the cistern's lid and use a Scrunge sponge or cloth to wipe down the interior.
- For stubborn stains, use a mixture of baking soda and water.
- Wipe the exterior with a disinfectant, and don't forget the flush handle.
How to clean the bathroom floor
How to clean the bathroom floor
Maintain a pristine bathroom floor with these quick steps:
- Sweep or vacuum: Remove loose debris to prevent scratches during cleaning. Top pick by Canadians is the Vileda Oskar Broom with Dustpan.
- Choose the right cleaner: Opt for a suitable cleaner based on your floor type. We recommend Vileda PACS Hard Floor Cleaner, which uses naturally-derived enzymes to break down dirt and grease. Plus the refreshing scents of Crisp Citrus or soothing Lavender will leave your bathroom smelling like a spa.
- Mop efficiently: Pair Vileda PACS with the EasyWring™ RinseClean™ spin mop. This innovative mop separates clean and dirty water, so you are always mopping with clean water. Your floors will thank you.
- Address grout lines: Use a paste of baking soda and water for grout or a mixture of white vinegar and water for persistent stains.
Tips for cleaning bathroom tile grout
Bathroom tiles can lose their lustere when grout becomes discolored or dirty. Follow these tips for cleaning bathroom tile grout:
- Mix baking soda and water to form a paste.
- Apply the paste to the grout lines and scrub with a toothbrush.
- For stubborn stains, use a mixture of white vinegar and water.
- Rinse and dry the tiles and grout for a fresh look.
Even in the best households, unsightly discolorations and deposits on the tile grouts occur from time to time. With a little toothpaste and an old toothbrush, however, they can be cleaned perfectly. Leave it to soak in for a while, and then wipe it again with clean water.
How to keep bathroom drains clean
Maintaining clean drains is essential to prevent clogs and foul odors. Here's how you do it:
- Regularly remove hair and debris from the drain cover.
- Use a combination of baking soda and white vinegar to prevent buildup.
- Invest in drain screens to catch debris before it reaches the pipes.
