  2. Using the magic eraser, lather the mixed solution with circular motions on the shower glass/floor; be careful as this will make the shower floor very slippery
  3. Let the solution sit for 15 min
  4. Wash off the solution with water
  5. Optional: Follow-up with additional scrubbing using the magic eraser before rinsing again

Replacing Caulk

Sometimes the caulking in the shower has mold that cannot be removed with cleaning solutions. The proper solution is to completely replace the caulking.
