Okay, all showers may not be as dirty as the one in the picture above. But sometimes, they still need a good clean.

Following this trick will give a guaranteed fast way of treating all types of dirt on most surfaces.

Best of all? You only need two ingredients and a couple of utensils:

250 ml liquid detergent

250 ml of warm white vinegar 

1 funnel

1 spray bottle

Method:

Heat the vinegar on the stove. It should be very warm, but not so much that you burn yourself.

You should still be able to dip your finger in it.

Use the funnel to fill up the spray bottle with detergent and vinegar. Mix it by simply rolling the bottle around, rather than shaking it too vigorously.

Then you can spray a small amount on the surface you want to clean and rub it lightly with a sponge. 

Tip:  Be careful with rubber seals and silicone joints, which can be damaged by vinegar.

Leave it for about 30 minutes before washing the dirty area with cold water. 

You will notice how easily stains disappear.

Feel free to use the mixture in more places than just the bathroom, so that everything is spotlessly clean. 

You may experience a certain pungent smell of vinegar at first, but do not worry: it disappears by itself after a short time.

Then, you could leave the spray bottle somewhere where you can easily pick it up when you need to do a quick clean. 

Do you know someone who should use this clever tip?
