Polident sure did work on my shower head! CLR, Lime-a-way, etc have not really done anything but I soaked over night and actually got wet this morning! Thanks Cactus Stitchin

You are right, use Windex, but buy a gallon of distilled water and use that every once in a while to help it shine. We quit using bar soap long ago, so no soap scum problems here, so I have no idea how to deal with that.

If at all possible, get a water softener and a water filter of some kind. We have never been sorry we got ours.

Try WD 40 spray. Just spray it on let sit or a few minutes and most of the spots will wipe off. Go on line and type in what WD40 c
an do! It works .

I am adding this to my shopping list too. I don't have a bad problem, but the shower heads do need a cleaning. I thought I had tried everything out there, but I had never heard of this product. Is it available in the grocery area, or the hardware at WM?

LemiShine is in the dishwashing area of WalMart.

I think it may have been here I learned of the dryer sheet for stubborn baked foods on pans or baking dishes like after scalloped potatoes! All I can say is WOW it has made clean up a wonder, I find I don't have to leave it soak overnight, just a short time and it loosens baked on food.

I too use dryer sheets for cleaning my brushed nickel fixtures. I also use dryer sheets for cleaning adhesives from my iron sole plate. I just take a used dryer sheet or two and run a hot iron back and forth over the dryer sheet, no more of the expensive tube of chemical iron sole plate cleaner for me. Again a tip learned on this board, I'm sure.

I will be trying it to clean the base of fixtures per your suggestion! PLUS like the tip of using a used tissue box for storage.[/QUOTE]

I hope the dryer sheets work for you! Thanks for the reminder about the iron sole plate cleaning. My new iron has a Teflon coated sole plate and is icky. Nothing has cleaned it...thanks for the reminder!

The used dryer sheets also work at cleaning fiberglass showers.

I use vinegar on mine but I don't have brushed nickel. I think it should be fine though. I soak paper towel in the vinegar & lay the paper towel & vinegar on the spot I want to clean. Leave it about 1/2 hour & it looks like new again

I made note of all the suggestions and have tried the vinegar first. That seemed to work very well for me. I appreciate all who took the time to respond. Thank you to everyone.
