  I use Dawn dish soap & a loofah to scrub our shower.

  Believe it or not I use a wet fabric softener sheet for the glass in the shower and then rinse and dry it - it works surprisingly well! For the bottom of the shower I use the Clorox clinging toilet cleaner. Just squirt it in there and scrub it around so it covers evenly - if you don't you'll be able to see where it was squirted on later. Then I let it sit for a few minutes and scrub as I rinse it away.

  DH is in construction and is so filthy he changes into clean work clothes before he gets in his truck to dirve home.  Our shower is disgusting only after a couple of days.  I have also never had much elbow grease.  I used to use a Magic Eraser, but I have found that a microfiber cloth and my normal bathroom cleaner works the best.

  For glass shower doors, vinegar works wonders.

  For the tub, I just use the yellow Lysol and a sponge. I also use the Method shower spray after I shower to help prevent buildup.

  Scrub Free.  I spray it on, leave for 5-10 minutes, then scrub a little & rinse.  I think the less bar soap you use, the less scum accumulates.  Shower gel is good for keeping the scum-factor low.  And I use Arm & Hammer daily shower spray after each shower.

  This may not be a huge help because I can't think of the name off-hand but it's in the cleaning section at Lowe's, I can't find it online. It's not a name I have ever heard of. It comes in powder form or liquid/paste (like soft scrub). It is made to get rust and all the build up and what-not off of many different surfaces without ruining the finish. It cost $2.48 and works phenomenal! My shower had so much build up on it from our water, none of my green cleaners would get it off without scrubbing away the finish.

  I put a thin layer of clorox powder in the tub, then turn on the shower to get it damp and then let it sit while I clean the rest of the bathroom. After about a half hour or so I give it a good scrub with a bristle brush and viola!

  I use Comet on my shower walls and glass door. I wear gloves, use a wet rag and Comet, and the soaps wipes right off.
