Sorry, i know that probably wasnt very helpful! :rolleyes:

No, I think that was kind of funny, cos that was my first option or last as well.

That was going to be my advice as well:rotfl:.

But as someone else said, not very green. So that's why I came here to ask. Thank you very much for everyone for their replies!

I have a lovely shower curtain that I got from Lakeland ages ago. It's beginning to look s little tired. Anyone know how I can clean it? Wiping clean no longer works.

You can actually machine wash them, use biological powder though. Other than that fill the bath with medium hot water add biological powder and soak in there for about an hour and then rinse - job done.

I always chuck mine in the washing machine and it comes out fine I have two that I alternate one white and one dark wine red and both are at least 15 years old

i shove mine in the bath with a squirt of bleach. bit then again it's white and cheap, i wouldn't care if it got damaged.

j.e.j.

Does it have a care label? some of the really cheap shower curtains can't be machine washed, but I'd imagine a lakeland one would go in the machine no problem.

Hi,

and if it comes out in tatters, Lidl have cheapies from tomorrow, £4.99, and machine washable.

Mine looks like fabric, rather than plastic and I've realised that it's only properly waterproof if I iron it after machine washing. (Must fuse the fibres or something!) I know when it needs redone as it starts to get wet and marked at the bottom.:o
Might be worth checking out the care label.:)
