wall. Relax. It's just tile cleaner agitated by your scrubbing
action, mixed with the soap and hard water deposits you are
cleaning off.
"See through" this mess (Rule 5) so you can tell when it's clean
underneath and can quit cleaning one area and move on to
another. You do this by learning to tell the difference between
how your brush feels when it is cutting through the scum versus
when it is down to the clean bare surface. One way to learn this
difference is to scrub a clean tile high on the wall and then scrub
a dirty one. Notice the difference in friction between the two
areas as you scrub. Or use your fingers on the clean versus dirty
areas to be able to feel the difference.
When you come to the soap dish,
clean it with your toothbrush. First
scrape off the soap that has
collected in the dish with the handle
end of your toothbrush. Now brush
out the remaining soap with the
bristle end. Use Red Juice only if
necessary. Final rinsing comes
when you rinse the tub/shower
area.
Shower Doors and Runners
After you have scrubbed the tile
wall, continue around to the inside
of the shower door. Switch to the
white pad for the shower doors, as
it's more effective on this smooth
surface than the tile brush. (But only
a white pad-—never a green pad,
which can scratch the glass.) Don’t
attempt to try to clean a shower
curtain, just ignore it and skip ahead. Move the doors so that
you can reach inside to clean them. If the shower doors overlap
and you can't clean the area where they overlap by moving the
doors, then spray some Red Juice on your white pad, wrap the
pad around your scraper, and slide it into the gap between the
