Shower screens masked by ‘hard limescale’ shine in 5 minutes with cleaner’s ‘best product’
When it comes to keeping shower screens clean, one of the biggest challenges is hard water buildup. However, a cleaner claims that one problem can easily be tackled in five minutes.
Shower cleaning is a tiresome chore, but one of the most dreaded aspects of cleaning a shower is removing limescale from the door.
Limescale, or calcium carbonate, is a hard, crusty deposit that ranges in colour from white to even a grim shade of green.
It’s found on surfaces and appliances that come into frequent contact with water like kettles and toilets and is especially prevalent in homes that have hard water.
Working as a professional cleaner, Dina took to her TikTok account @femmeproprecleaning to share “the best product” she uses to tackle shower screen limescale.
She captioned the video: “Do you have hard limescale on your shower doors? Let me show you the best product that works wonders. Please use a mask, eye goggles and gloves when using this.”

Showing fellow TikTok users the state of the shower screen before cleaning, it was completely full of limescale.
Dina explained that she gets asked how to clean shower limescale “so many times” and what she uses is HG Scale Away spray.
HG Scale Away limescale remover can be picked up from B&Q for £6.50 or from Robert Dyas for £7.49.
She said: “This product is absolutely the best. Quick and easy.” Explaining how to use the product, Dina said: “So what I usually do is spray it, scrub it down and leave it for five minutes.”

If you still see some limescale left behind after, the cleaner recommends repeating the process and “it will give you the results you’re looking for”.
Showing the camera the after results and the shower screen was spotless and streak-free. Dina said: “Now just look at the bathroom [screen] shining.”
Cleaning fans in the comment section were very impressed by the results. @fiz20133 wrote: “HG is unreal for all cleaning.” @leishanicole_ said: “Omg I need this.”
@hamptonhousekeeping commented: “Looks amazing. I use Viakal, but this looks just as good, if not better. Will have to try it.”
To prevent limescale from returning to shower screens, one user suggested regular use of a squeegee.
@tashwinning said: “Use a window squeegee after every use and won’t need cleaning so much.” Dina replied: “I give my advice about the squeegee but not everyone takes it.”
A squeegee is one of the most practical and affordable items that can prevent watermarks and limescale from reappearing on your shower doors.
You can pick up a squeegee from B&Q for £2.50 or from Dunelm for as little as 80p.
After showering, squeegee all the moisture off the glass of your enclosure or screen to stop watermarks from appearing.
