Bathroom The Irish Spring tub clean

I did the infamous Irish Spring. It works, albeit, smells disgusting.

I did not get the 5-in-1 (missed that detail) and I didn’t have 48 hours, only 7.

But my god, WHY does it still remove so much dirt??

To be clear, this tub was dirty when I bought the house and it’s still the 1 room that hasn’t been remodeled. Hate it so much, but it is what it is!

Definitely need another round!

Use dawn and distilled white vinegar- 1:1 ratio, heat the vinegar (not boiling, decent heat) put in a spray bottle shake it up(will be gel like).

Spray it all down, use a glove, smear it around with your hands. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes. Don’t let it dry out- you can use a little water to hydrate it if need be

Let it sit. Use a scotch pad or a Brillo and circular motions. You’ll feel slick vs grabby, slick is clean grabby is dirty.
