How to Clean a Tub Faucet
- 1). Fill a spray bottle with undiluted white vinegar. Spray the vinegar generously onto the faucet. Let the vinegar remain on the faucet for 10 minutes to loosen soap scum, dirt and mineral deposits.
- 2). Wipe the faucet with a paper towel to remove loose grime.
- 3). Inspect the faucet for remaining stains, scum or grime. If more cleaning is needed, fill a plastic bowl with 1/2 cup of baking soda and 1/4 cup of white vinegar. Thoroughly mix the ingredients to form a paste with the consistency of toothpaste.
- 4). Spread the paste over the faucet, using a spatula. Keep the paste on the faucet for 10 minutes.
- 5). Scrub the faucet with a nylon scouring pad to loosen remaining debris.
- 6). Dampen a soft cotton rag with warm water. Wipe the damp rag over the faucet to rinse away the paste and loosened debris.
- 7). Wipe the faucet with a terry cloth towel until completely dry.
