I tried everything on the glass. Windex, CLR, Limeaway, Kaboom, Scrubbing bubbles, etc. Nothing touched the hard water stains. So, I got on Amazon and saw what was available with great reviews. This product was highly rated, so I bought it.
It's got a kind of minty smell and it also a mint color thick gel/paste. You put it on a cloth or paper towel and buff it into the glass. I did test it in a small area by the sink wall to make sure it didn't scratch, since this is a mild abrasive. Being that it is meant for glass and other surfaces, I wasn't expecting any issues - and didn't see any.
I didn't think it required that much effort, but if your stains are really bad, you might need to use some elbow grease!
After you rub it in, you just rinse it off and then remove any streaks with Windex or similar glass cleaner. I can't believe the difference!
I swear it feels brighter in the shower, too. I still need to perfect everything with the regular glass cleaner, but it is awesome to have all those spots gone!
Some before and afters (some taken with light on, some off):
Now, I need to tackle the grout and caulking around the tile. Ugh, never ends! I hope to have something more fun to share soon. We made some changes to the basement, and I need an opinion on our doors. Have a great week!
