DIY Bathtub Cleaning | How to Clean Old Porcelain Tub | Fast & Cheap 

adulthood is: getting excited because someone in RU-vid uses the same cleaning product you use. Cleaning validation hitting on a different level

Thank-you! Thank-you!! Thank-you!!! Anyone who owns an old porcelain tub knows how difficult it can be to keep clean. I've literally tried just about EVERY concoction that I could think of. This works!! Again, thank-you so very much for this video!😊 Happy just doesn't begin to describe how I'm feeling right now!!

2:14 Before 12:40 After Summary 1. Spray oven cleaner all over 2. Nylon bristlol scrub brush 3. Wipe down with paper towel 4. "Awesome" cleaner. Ammonia Free, No Acid, Non-flammable 5. Mr. Clean Eraser 6. Plastic knife / putty knife

I can't believe you're doing this while wearing white. Thanks for the video!

Wow, so much better! I would've never thought to use oven cleaner. Thanks for the great tip!

I was stunned how phenomenally effective this was. I had persistent circular mold marks from a bath mat's suction cups and had tried EVERYTHING to remove them. I would estimate the oven cleaner and nylon brush removed 35% of the stain. The magic eraser COMPLETELY removed the remaining marks in about 5 minutes effort. It was amazing how effective the magic eraser was.

Wow so much better! Thank you for the video

So I tried this and my tub looks great

Boy it looks a 1000 times better!

Wow what a difference - I never thought to use oven cleaner on a bathtub .... you forgot to talk about ventilation while using oven cleaner ...

Great demo video on how to clean stains, which is what I was looking for. I liked the list you started with and then the add-ons like rubber putty knife to your arsenal. Nice work on cleaning a horrible tub to make it presentable!

Can't afford to reglaze quite yet. I have found the Foaming Bath Magic Eraser works even better.

Gotta hand it to man looks 10 times better....thx 4 the video

good idea with the oven cleaner. I'm going to try this today.

Thank you so much! We're going to try your solution to hard water stains in our tub!

Amazing job! ✨✨✨

Thank You for the Idea

Thanks for the tips 😊

Vinegar and baking soda will get out at least some of the rust and hard water stains. I have never liked Magic Eraser. Every time I've used them they shred to pieces.

Plastic putty knife seemed to be the MVP

I use the Magic Eraser on the walls, but use a pumice brick from Ace Hardware on the tub. Way faster that what you used. Try one.

Have you ever tried turpentine and salt mixture 1:1 ratio? But overall I’m super impressed at the results you got!

Oh he something Else! I use oven cleaner for everything too

Could you put the equivalent of your cleaning products to what we’d use in uk. Got the oven cleaner but what would the other products be . Many thanks

Did you tile and install the floors yourself or use a 3rd party?

All of this in a white, long-sleeve shirt?? You are a brave, brave man.

I would give you two thumbs up if I could. 1st off my husband needs to take note of how to do the honey do list. Lol 2nd we bought an old house and no one has lived here for probably 10 yrsthe original owner passed. My stains and build up are probably cooked on, so how long should I leave the oven cleaner? I dont want to leave it on too long and ruin the finish. Thanks for sharing this!!

This is good

if youve ever felt weird about reminding people to like a video, dont. i didnt rememeber to leave a like. it does actually help

I bought a small bottle of white porcelain paint one time from an appliance dealer....I touched up a couple of spots in my microwave.

This little ru-vid.comUgkxVoi3B4CB6Oygq1-vo4OTL1M_M5JkrXif tub works perfect in our 6 x 6 shower and is easy to get in and out. Also easy to drain.

How on Earth did you keep that white sweatshirt clean

great video! question, why use a damp paper towel after using the oven cleaner? why not rinse with water?

Thank you, I loved the tips, but due to herniated discs and chronic back pain, I can't maintain my bathtub. Any tips are welcome

Some great ideas but you’d be smart to wear a protective ventilator mask, or an N95 at least - with moldy stuff and harsh cleaning solvents, protect those lungs

i've heard white spirit works too in getting years of grime off a bathtub or shower

Use Lacquer thinner with 600-800 grit wet sand paper and it will work better than the Mr Clean Scrubbing pad

I would have ripped it out and put in a new one. That’s a lot of work. Peroxide works well on rust

Wow amazing job

2 thumbs up for elbow grease

The magic erasers literally last 10 minutes of scrubbing..lol..not very durable

Hydrogen peroxide really has a chemical reversal on rust. I can’t figure out what gallon bottle is.

oh my god! where did you get this filthy bathtub, gumtree?

Ajax and a scrubber leaves it like new 😊

Next time use hot water and flush the dirt instead of paper toweling it out, less work. Looks good though. Also bar keepers power is better then awesome 👌

Mine is yellow stains, well water. Will this work? I tried toilet bowl cleaner, didn't work

Kaboom toilet bowl cleaner and magic eraser works thousand time better no scrubbing

How is he breathing all those chemicals.. awesome is harsh on the lungs

When you put the Awesome in you should have plugged the tub, so you could have it there for better cleaning. Just saying

I don’t know if its the camera and lighting, but that bathtub is dirty in a very strange way... it looks like it was used as a trash dumpster during construction and filled with water, thats why it’s dirty at the bottom and clean everywhere else. Again, it could be just lighting and camera

What is the yellow bottle name? and buy from where?

Mask? And why not Ajax

bro, u look like Canelo

Please put that bottle of something in the notes. I don’t live in your region so I have to find a comparable product at Home Depot.

Wait are you using a DRY magic eraser!?

That awesome is strong, you need a mask when using it

I'm exhausted. Honestly, if my daughter doesn't remove a heavy duty bath mat every time she showers, I'm going to run screaming. I'm tired of cleaning up after her. She is having guests & I get to clean. What a mess. Oven cleaner, I don't use that ever.

I would HATE to have to do this.

Jeez, that is not a shower.. Looks more like a construction parts cleaning tub...

Watching this because I stained my tub When I was tie dying

If it was me I would run some water.. That would be a lot easier ..than at the end Fill up the bad tub with water and run it through

is this bathroom from your SMOKER HOUSE? the video you posted last month?

Unanswered questions: 1. Why are you wearing a nice white shirt? 2. How did you not get it dirty?

You could have bot a normal spray bottle it would have been just 1 more dollar

He ought to have. mask on to keep from breathing in those fumes from the oven cleaner...just saying.

Nails on a chalkboard 😬😬😬😬😬 but great video. It’s me not you 🥸

Made my back hurts watching you try my method you'll throw all that away but the eraser and gloves kaboom toilet bowl cleaner ur good to go

i've got the same problem. i'll be ripping mine out and putting in a walk in shower. this isnt the 1800's. nobody uses bathtubs anymore. i just need to get in and get out so i can go to work. i dont have the luxury to sit in a tub filled with $20 worth of water and stare at the ceiling.

Would have been nice if someone had protected the tub with a tarp or plastic sheet during the tile job.

You're cute

NEVER, EVER USE OVEN CLEANER ON A TUB OR SINK. It will completely ruin it. I had someone I hired to clean my house and she ruined my tub doing this. I don't blame her, she didn't know. But this guy should know better!!!

sup nerd

Where your tub really,that dirty.

No mask? Ur tough!

You lost me at the "magic Eraser" they don't work

Cast iron tub?😂

You titled this to be fast. Then you say 12 minutes in that it takes a lot of scrubbing. On top of that when you claimed to be done it was still stained.

I just know you could barely move your arms the next day.

Re-glazed would have been a big plus, Get to it.

This bathtub is not porcelain. It is metal with enamel finish, like most tubs that are not fiberglass. A Magic eraser is not a scrubber. First, you get it wet. Then, you glide it over the surface like an.... eraser! He forgot to mention ventilation when using oven cleaner Rather than mention his lack of a spray bottle over and over, he should have driven to a different store to get one. When pouring the liquid around the tub, he should have put it in a small cup first. That's an easy way to avoid wasting it. This video is useless to anyone who does not have a bathtub full of mortar and sheetrock. While it is entertaining to see a well-built young man working his ass off, I don't need to do that to clean my tub.
