Do you have “buyanewcurtain” mold on your shower curtain? I don’t know if it’s mold or residue, but I seriously hate how my shower liner turns pinkish orange…and pink is my favorite color! I go back and forth on the best way to deal with it. I have a higher quality shower liner that is almost a fabric material in one of our showers, and a cheapo plastic one in our guest shower. I’ve concluded that there are two ways to clean these pesky pink shower curtains and they cost about the same.
1.) Buy a new cheap liner (preferably when you have company coming).
2.) Try the steps below.
What I’m still looking for is a way to prevent this pink shower dilemma I have. Any suggestions from our readers would be welcome in the comments section. I don’t think rubbing a dryer sheet on my shower curtain is going to do the trick for this problem. 🙂 (see blinds and baseboard post to understand that joke.)
If you like this cleaning tip and want more inspiration, please click the thumbnails to the left. I’ve got clean baseboards, a clean oven, clean blinds, and a white shower liner. Please comment if there are any specific tips you would like me to investigate for future posts. It’s trial and error sometimes, but the internet is a wonderful resource with lots of ideas and I’m happy to find the easiest way to get a job done.

I have been so tempted to try but we aren’t alcohol drinkers so I have yet to find the courage to walk in the store and buy it. I think I will soon though because I get tired of the bleach smell from cleaning mold in my crummy apartment.

February 10, 2013 at 2:46 amI forgot to share how I clean my shower doors and it works great. I use Avon’s Skin So Soft. I know you’re probably laughing because when I first heard it I did too. I tried it years ago when I was selling Avon and I was surprised that it actually works really good. I was like yay! Just don’t let it get in the tub or someone could slip and get hurt.

February 10, 2013 at 2:27 pmThanks for the tip for the shower doors. Our apartment had doors and they were a fright to keep clean too. It’s ironic that the place we clean ourselves is so dirty.
I don’t like to mess around with mold. Especially since our kids take baths in there too. Nasty, nasty!

February 10, 2013 at 2:42 amI used to clean houses for a living and pink is bad.It’s the beginning of mold and it gets worse the longer you leave it. I’d just throw out your shower liner and buy a new one. If you would rather clean it that’s good too.
Good Luck 🙂
