Just bought the mikey tile tool from john :rockon:.

For Showers:

What cleaning products for ceramic?

What tools/pads to scrub with?

For stone?

Caulking, what tools to remove that moldy old caulk and what product to place new?

Glass doors?

EVERY time we push tile/grout hard the calls start flooding in for showers and i just dont have a good system down yet.
I have several to practice on now so can you please do this 1 more time.

Mike, what are you using for mold on stone showers? Also, I see you have Stone Scrub on the list above, which I already have on the truck, do I need Magic Al's Metal & Glass Magic? Aren't they similar products? I really don't like cleaning showers but when I ever I tell my customers that I clean tile they always want a quote on their shower. I appreciate your help.

Simular but different. Stone Scrub is more of a cleaner, Glass and Metal is more of a polish.

I like 40 volume liquid for mold on walls and crevices. .. And those cool toof brushes.

On the hard water spots on glass, try a Bounce fabric sheet. Any brand will work.

Best to rinse pretty quick or each panel win done.

Mist with water then scrub with dryer sheet. Amazing how it cut the mineral deposits right off.

Rinse off the suds. If they don't have shower head hose, use solution line with open QD I guess.

The fabric softner does the work. The fuzzy sheet get in the pits of the glass.

Trick I came across trying to clean my own glass. House keeping forum popped up on a search. B
