Ok OS folks, I need your help!

My glass shower screen is, frankly, gross and needs a good clean. Can anyone give me any tips to get it sparkly and shiny? Everything I've tried so far just leaves it streaky.

    White vinegar and newspaper is good and MSE.
    If you have any mould I would use shops own neat bleach. Cleaning toothbrush for getting in the groves.

    Not particularly MSE but once you have got it clean and sparkly 10 seconds with the K*rch*r window vacuum after every shower will keep it that way. I've always been ashamed of my shower screen but this is a revelation.

    These threads have lots of advice that should help:

    Shower Screen Spray

    How do I keep a shower door sparkling?

    Once you've had more replies I'll add your thread to the first link to keep the advice together.

    I cleaned mine yesterday, using my steamer which blasts away any lingering gunge. I do this every 3 months or so. In between I just give it a quick wipe down after my daily shower using a dry glass cloth. Keeps it in reasonable order.

    OH uses a window squeegee to wipe it down after a shower. I have a bath so I do not have too :D the squeegee seems to work. I give it a go over with spray windowlene every now and again.
