Hard water spots and soap scum develop when water evaporates, leaving minerals and soap residue behind, says an environmental, healthy Cleaning Service in Evanston, Il. If you let the water dry on your shower walls, they will get dirty rather quickly. If you dry the shower walls with a towel or a shower squeegee before you exit, however, you will greatly reduce the amount of cleaning you have to do.
Regular soap is produced by combining animal fat with lye. When this type of soap is used in hard water, it produces soap scum. On the other hand, Castile soap is a very gentle natural product made from vegetable oil. No matter how hard the water is, Castile soap does not form soap scum. There are several natural Castile soaps on the market that all can safely be used.
Preventing soap scum from settling is far easier than removing it after it has built up. Keep a shower squeegee, a scrub brush, and an old toothbrush in the shower. After each shower, squeegee the walls dry or use a towel to dry the walls and door. This prevents soap scum from developing and keeps your shower clean.
Bathtubs, on the other hand, should be scrubbed, rinsed, and dried after each use due to the hot, soapy water that adheres to the bathtub walls, even if you use Castile soap says an environmental healthy Cleaning Service in Evanston, Il. You always will have to wipe or scrub the bathtub and rinse out the residue after each bath, or your bathtub will quickly become grimy.
