Yield: 1
Equipment
- White Vinegar (I used about 1 cup)
- Zip top bag (I used a gallon size because this was a big shower head)
- Rubber band
Instructions
- Fill a plastic bag with vinegar. I used about 1 cup of vinegar. Place the shower head inside plastic bag, making sure the face of the shower head is fully immersed in the vinegar.
- Since I used a gallon size bag, I taped up the corners of the bag where all the vinegar wanted to stay. Taping up the sides made the liquid stay in the center.
- If you have a smaller shower head, you should be able to use a quart or sandwich size zip top bag.
- Once you have the shower head positioned well in the vinegar, use the rubber band to secure the bag and soak the showerhead.
- I let my shower head sit in the vinegar for about an hour. That was plenty of time to loosen up all the soap scum and hard water deposits. Once I removed the bag from around the shower head, I used my cleaning toothbrush to remove any remaining deposits. I didn't have to scrub at all, everything just fell right off.
- Once you are happy with how the shower head looked, run the shower for a minute and dry it with a microfiber cloth (like these).
