Could I scour a badly stained bathtub with this? If so? What attachment?

Certainly not with the included wheels, maybe with a flap disk or something. The included wheels are very aggressive and would would make huge marks very quickly.

You probably could, but, scouring is probably not the recomended method. There are cleaners out there that would do a fairly good job without ruining the finish on the tub. Talk to your hardware store expert. I believe Kaboom may be one of their suggestions. Remember that stains, lime build up an soap scum may take different products to do the cleaning. Good luck!

Yes use a flap disc...4 1/2" with 180 grit or more. Its a great tool still holding up great

I agree with the previous responder. I would be careful using something that aggressive on the finish. Have had great results with Bar Keepers helper when nothing else worked...particularly around rust.

This is not meant for use in a bathtub so I would suggest not using it in a bathtub. I would only use this for an aquarium type set up.

I soaked it in my bathtub! lol Worked well, but lost a few small pieces of the insert bamboo :( haven't steamed with it yet to see how well it works, it is a birthday gift for my daughter

Hello, I was checking to see what the ratio of polyester/polymide was for these cloths and saw your question. I am a 'green' housecleaner and use these to remove soap scum off of shower doors and tiles! The secret is to not make the microfiber cloth too damp. Just a light spray of vinegar and water and the soap scum will rub away beautifully. However, for your bathtub, the cloth would get too damp and not be effective. I use Bon Ami scrubbing powder and a sponge (scrubber side) for the bathtub and it works really well, as does baking soda in a pinch.

I wouldn't.. it's much stiffer than you think it is... and the plastic bristles I believe would scratch.. I used it to clean grout, and it scratched the tile.

I suppose it would work okay but I think it would be awkward because of the long handle. You can buy short handled versions that may be better for cleaning the tub.

My dog horked on a tile floor which discolored the grout (1/3"). The Shark Steam pocket mop cleaned it up great! I removed the mop head and used the steam directly on the grout. I don't recommend it unless you're extremely careful, after all it is steam, VERY VERY HOT.

No, probably not. I wouldn't try. It could make the spot worse. I used to own a carpet cleaning company. It depends on what the spot is. Sometimes you can use 1 part vinegar to 3 parts water and blot it our with a rag. Sometimes Oxi-Clean works well with a wet n' Dry vac to suck out the spot. You can also rent a machine from your hardware store or call a professional.

I'm sorry, I don't know about use with stained or finished surfaces. Works great on bare wood.

If you have a fiberglass or plastic type tub, this product will stain it. These type tub and sinks stain very easily I wouldn't have one of this material for this very reason. Have a resin sink in our laundry room and it's a mess with stains and you can't get them off

I have used the attachment on microfiber and found it did a great job pulling dirt from the surface. Just be careful not to over saturate.

it wilyl clean the mold and mildew. It probably won't clean the soap scum. Unlikely to cause any harm.

I would not do that. These pads are coarse as sandpaper. You might try Bon Ami and a ScotchBrite pad on your sink. For tough stains on toilets, Shaws Pad is the best think I have found.

Hi Sharon -So far so good. But I only used it in a small area in the shower stall - the small triangular piece that is there tol hold soap, shampoo, etc -- so did not use on a large bathtub job.Also, it is highly highly toxic so please be sure to wear a good mask and also ventilate the area.Good luckFrank

yes they stained my bathtub.. but i think it depends of the what your is your tub made out of.. I have a fiberglass tub in my children's bathtub and it did stain the bathtub, but technically not permanently, but lots of elbow grease to get it out.

Maybe. Depends on how flat a surface you have around the open hole. This has a rubber edge on the bottom but it is not suction. You may wish to look for something designed for a tub hole.

Sorry, we have only used it in fiberglass tubs. If it stains slightly I use clorox cleaner on it.
