Has anybody used this sponge for cleaning the tub? Would it work to get rid of soap scum?

I dont think this sponge will be sturdy enough to use for heavy scrubbing. It's very soft and squishy - you can ball it up in your hand (and then it bounces back into shape). It's really better for dishes. For soap scum in tub, i have used those plastic handled scrub pads which are perfect.

You could try, but I wouldn't expect too much. I could see the steamer didn't have much effect in removing soap scum from glass shower doors, even with vinegar applied first, and tiles should be pretty much the same issue. I'd use Bon Ami ('hasn't scratched yet") to scrub it off, or a Magic Eraser pad.

As others have noted it does not remove soap scum so much as it prevents it from forming. Get the shower clean and then used once a week it will keep your shower clean. YES it DOES work on the glass and shower door. I use it on both every week and it keeps soap scum from forming there. Does the job VERY well - IF you read the directions and follow them accordingly.

I believe so. Works especially well on mildew and soap scum. Only surface to really avoid is carrera marble.

Yes, it does remove soap scum on the glass without harming the glass. If there is a build up in the shower stall, spray the shower daily for a week and use a Mr. Clean Scrubber (this was a recommendation I read before purchasing the Wet & Forget). I now use it weekly and am very pleased.

I did not the first time, because we had not used our tub in many years, but I have since then. I used it originally to get rid of the biofilm stuff. There are many others at the grocery store and hardware stores you can use after each bath with the same soapy water. Oh Yuk is the only one that will get the biofilm stuff out of your plumbing, though.

I would assume it will work. The sponge tip will rip if you are too aggressive with cleaning.

I find it easy to use a soapy sponge with abrasive side to firmly but somewhat gently scrub both sides of the screen and outer ring. Handle is washed as well. This soap scrub action seems to remove all grease residue. A thorough rinse and then allow the implement to air dry - I hang it on a cup hook. Works for me. By the way, my dishwasher is my hands!!!

We clean ours with a non abrasive sponge cleaner that holds soap. The scrubbing brushes that hold soap in the handle work fine.

Rubbing the sponge on a bar of soap works better than any liquid cleanser. I use Dr. Bronner's peppermint bar soap.

From my experience it wasn't very compatible with soap. It quit working after about 3 months. Pass on this one. Not worth the money.

I think it works well for removal of soap scum as long as you do not let it build up to thick of a layer!

Hi John! I use the soap as a part of my homemade detergent and I also have an HE washer. It works just fine for me!

It is a good cleaner. Puts a protective cote for 5 days. Some have said it is soft scrub and toothpaste. If tub is bad, like I had, I covered by Bathfitters.

It won't scratch the surface cause it won't clean the soap scum. It don't work. It's a piece of junk.

I use it with one of the nylon mesh "pouf" sponges. I'm amazed at how much foam is produced with so little soap using that sort of sponge. The sponge is good for loosening dry skin as well. Perfect combo.

If you have rust stains it works GREAT!! They go away almost instantly... I love it and use it on my fiberglass tub enclosure, my sinks and my toilets. Hope this helps...
