A TikTok cleaning hack claims that two common kitchen items can restore shower screens to a sparkling, streak-free condition. The method uses a Dishmatic—a refillable washing-up tool—filled with a mixture of half Fairy Liquid and half white vinegar.
The Problem with Shower Screens
Cleaning shower screens often results in unsightly streaks and water marks, despite using glass cleaner. This frustration led TikTok user @mylittlehome.x to share an alternative method that she says works every time. She noted that her mother never taught her to clean, and she had to teach herself after getting married.
The Hack Explained
According to @mylittlehome.x, the key is to use a Dishmatic, a tool with a hollow handle that dispenses dish soap through a sponge or scourer head. She recommends filling it with equal parts Fairy Liquid and white vinegar. First, wet the Dishmatic under the tap, then scrub the shower screen thoroughly. She suggests doing this daily or every other day to prevent heavy water mark buildup. After scrubbing, use a squeegee in straight downward motions to achieve a gleaming finish. Optionally, apply a shower shine spray for extra gloss, and perform the clean right after showering to save time.
Reaction and Tips
Viewers praised the hack in the comments. One user said, “I spent so much money on multiple cleaning products only to realise Fairy is the best for the kitchen and bathroom.” Another advised using non-scratch Dishmatic sponge heads. A third joked, “My mum did teach me but I just can’t retain the information.” The hack is particularly effective for serious water marks.
