Cleaning shower enclosures with curved glass

I just use a cloth to clean and a dry microfibre cloth to dry and buff up.

If you really want to use a squeege... could you use a straight one but in horizontal strokes?

Just get yourself one of the cheapie wiper/scrapers with rubber blade that are sold for car windscreens. This is what I've got & it does the job perfectly.

I wasted money on 2 other scrapers supposedly suited for curved shower screens & they were useless so I ditched them & decided to try the cheap car windscreen wiper/scraper & was amazed at how well it did the job. The blade isn't too long, so makes it easy to do the curved bits of the shower screen.

The other useful thing to use on a shower screen is a chamoix leather.

I got mine from Ikea, <£3!

Andy - we bought one of the curved squeegees from Aldi (or was it Lidl???) for something like £3 ish. Used it once and took it back. It was hopeless. There was no way the curved blade flattened out enough to do the job. Even the checkout lady agreed when we showed it to her.

OH thinks that an ordinary flat squeegee will do the job.

I haven't tried ours since the first time as the curved shower cubicle is in the en suite in the loft and up to now only our daughter has used it, she asked for my normal (flat) squeegee and seems to have got on OK with it.

I tend to wash the walls and door down with the shower head and a sponge when I've finished showering, squeegee and then finish the door off with a microfibre cloth. But, of course, I don't have a mobility problem and can do the bottom bit OK.

Homebase do a car squeegee with a longer handle for £4.99, would that be any good? Or there's this one. Or if you want to push the boat out Lakeland do this for £9.98, will wash the walls and squeegee them too!

We have very hard water where we are but I usually just use an eco cloth on ours every few weeks or if someone is coming! It seems to stay pretty clean and the eco cloths are fantastic.
