My Mom told me that there is an old saying that the “Blacksmith’s horses run barefoot”  That’s a cute way of saying that when you make your living doing something, it is generally the last thing you want to do when you get home.   Case in point, I have been cleaning house for some lovely people for the last 4 years and you would not want to see what my shower looks like.  :-P

I am trying to find some highly effective home remedies that are non-toxic and generally get the job done.  For the most part, using things like vinegar and lemon juice head the list but I am open to other suggestions.

One of the things that has given me grief over the years has been soap and water deposits on glass shower doors.  I have been using tub and tile cleaner to try to loosen the gunk and then Windex to clean the glass but it wasn’t the best solution.  A couple of weeks ago I was reading an old email about the uses of WD40.  One of the things listed was shower doors so I tried it.  Since it penetrates, I sprayed it on and let it sit a few minutes.  When I cleaned the door it came much cleaner with less effort than any of the other methods I had tried.  That’s what I’m talking about!

If you have any tried and true favorites, please comment and share with the rest of us.
