Default Water Spots on Bathroom Fixtures

Has anyone had any luck removing water spots from bathroom fixtures? Nothing that I've tried so far works.

Thanks, Bill from Duval

Here's one a nurse told us about. She said they dab a little rubbing achohol on a cloth to clean their fistures. We tried it and it seems to work just fine.

There are many things that will remove water spots from bathroom fixture and I probably know most of them. I say clean them every three weeks. There is too much else fun to do. Life is short. Eat dessert first.

I've been using the alcohol method for years. Works really well, and disinfects too.

My Susi has found that this works best. Spray everything with the fume free Magic Tile and Grout cleaner and then use Magic Eraser from Mr Clean to remove all spots. Dry with a micro fiber cloth. This works on all fixtures, shower glass and tile and does so quickly and easily with very little elbow grease. Everything sparkles when she is done.

Clorox spray with bleach works for me when I deep clean. Otherwise, just wiping it down every morning eliminates the spots....takes only a few seconds.

Baby oil and/or any kind of oil base (olive oil, cooking oils, or cosmetic oils) and wipe. This will repel the water from the faucets. Simple? No more white spots......b
