    Okay bees, this is quite a dull question, but I just know the hive has the expertise I am seeking.

    Out bath tubs are tile and they have been looking a little grungy lately. I've tried bleach and commercial cleaners for tub and tile with little success. I've tried so many things, in fact, that I'm close to hiring someone to do it for me.

    Any ideas? All suggestions welcome. I'm a desperate woman! :)

    Mr. Clean Magic Eraser! It takes some elbow grease but it works amazingly well. Your tub will glisten like it's brand new!

    Uh I have this problem too.  We are on a water ban here in Nashville but as soon as it's lifted I plan on trying this guy's technique:

    Is it time to regrout them? We're getting ready to do that in our bathroom. They're cracking and just looking crappy!

    My mom swears by CLR on the metal fixtures though.

    I used a steamer with an attachment to clean my grout and it worked really well.  Sounds gross but it melted all the gunk off.

    Okay, I had trouble with my shower this past week and the only thing that worked was Mr Clean Magic Eraser!  It worked like magic, that melamine foam is so awesome, just make sure you do not rub it on your skin or you could get chemical burns.
