Cleaning the bathroom can seem like a chore for many people, but it doesn't have to be. By learning about common cleaning mistakes, you can simplify your cleaning routine and achieve a more efficient clean with less effort. With CYCLE 's eco-friendly bathroom cleaner, you'll not only get rid of stubborn stains, you'll also be looking after your health and the planet. Now we'll bring you some examples of things you should definitely avoid before cleaning the bathroom.
- Using inappropriate cleaning products on sensitive surfaces
It's tempting to use one cleaner for everything in the bathroom, but this approach can damage certain surfaces over time. For example, strong chemical (conventional) cleaners can corrode or dull the fine surfaces of chrome fixtures and scratch special bathroom tiles.
Solution. CYCLE bath rod detergent is specifically designed to safely treat a variety of bathroom surfaces. It is tough on scale but gentle enough on taps, shower heads, bathroom tiles and even chrome. For the perfect result, use the CYCLE window cleanerand for the toilet, use the toilet cleaning foamto clean your toilet.
- Avoiding places with high humidity
Bathrooms are high moisture environments and certain areas, such as grout lines, shower corners and areas under sinks, are particularly prone to moisture build-up. Ignoring and inadequately cleaning these areas can lead to the development of mould and mildew, which can become increasingly difficult to clean over time.
Solution: regular cleaning with CYCLE Bathroom Cleaner helps keep grout and tiles fresh.
- Skipping the rinse
After using cleaning products, it is easy to forget to rinse thoroughly. Residues of cleaning products left on surfaces can not only cause dust and soap to build up, but can also create a sticky feel that can cause these surfaces to become dull and need more frequent cleaning.
Solution: after using CYCLE Bathroom Cleaner, quickly rinse surfaces such as sinks, taps and tiles. This will remove any residual cleaner and ensure freshness and shine.
Pro tip: After the rinse, run a damp microfiber cloth over the cleaned surfaces to help make everything in your bathroom extra shiny and water-stain-free.
- Overuse of cleaning products
Using too many cleaning products can be tempting, especially when dealing with stubborn stains. But using more than necessary can actually be bad for your health - think of that time you inhaled some harsh cleaner and had to open a window or door - and it doesn't enhance cleanliness.
Solution: use natural cleaners that are as effective against stains as conventional cleaners, but are kind to you and the planet.
- Neglect of shower heads and taps
Mineral deposits and water stains can quickly build up on showerheads and taps, leading to reduced water flow and unpolished surfaces. Regular cleaning will prevent these deposits from becoming difficult to remove.
Solution: spray a cleaning agent on these surfaces and leave it on for a few minutes before wiping or rinsing. For stubborn stains, wrap a cloth or rag soaked in CYCLE cleaner around the faucet and let it sit for a few more minutes.
+1. Neglect of the shower glass
One of the easiest ways to keep your shower glass crystal clear is to wipe it dry after each use. If water is left on the glass surfaces, it can evaporate and leave behind hard water stains or scale marks. Over time these can make the glass cloudy and require scrubbing.
Solution: keep a cloth or microfibre cloth in the bathroom and wipe the glass quickly after each shower. This little habit will prevent hard water spots from forming.
By avoiding these common bathroom cleaning mistakes, you'll not only save time, but also ensure a cleaner and healthier environment for you and your family. CYCLE 's sustainable cleaning products allow you to maintain a fresh, sparkling bathroom while making eco-friendly choices.
