I love/hate to squeegee. It was my husband's idea. We do it after every shower (or whoever showers last) on the shower walls and doors. It was a pain at first, but now I am used to it, and it is SO worth it. The soap scum doesn't build up, so it hardly gets dirty. I can go longer between cleanings, and since I don't have to scrub at all, I don't dread the cleanings anymore.
We have a fiberglass shower stall (or something like that) with glass doors. Our friends who have tile do it, too.
This is when I am glad my husband is a bit of a neat freak. The 30 second squeegee is one of my favorite housekeeping rules - one that actually works for me.
Try it, and be sure to be consistent!

Just for the record, I thought I should clarify that we don't use any shower spray with these daily squeegeeings, we just wipe down the water and soap that is already there - sorry if that was confusing! (Cheaper and more earth-friendly this way!)

That is such a great tip. I am going to share this with my sister who has a shower stall that would work on!
I really should do this! I hate buying and rebuying sprays (and then don't feel good about using them!)
We do this too.
Yes, we have one of those. Consitency is key! We're not very consistent with it :(
This is a great tip and we did it all the time when we had shower doors. We stopped when we moved and have a curtain instead. But I don't remember why! I should find that squeegee and put it back on the wall!
Great idea.. that will help with our showers!!!!!!!!!!
I also use a squeegee for my 7 foot tall shower door. But, then I have a bottle of cleaner to spray on the fiberglass walls and tile above. The ingredients are: 1/2 cup white vinegar, 3 tbsp of Jet-Dry, 3 tbsp of d/w liquid. Fill the rest of the bottle with water. Give it a shake and spray after you shower. I haven't scrubbed my walls in months!
i was wondering if this really worked well..i had looked into it because we're getting rid of all our chemical cleaners because of my daughter's asthma and allergy. thanks for the review!
