Potty Talk: Spring Cleaning Tips & Products For Your RV’s Bathroom - As Seen In I Heart RVing

Pam Kennedy • May 01, 2023

As we welcome springtime once again, now is the perfect opportunity to bring some spring freshness to your RV bathroom.

The truth is we all feel better knowing that our bathrooms are fresh, clean, and germ-free. 


But at the same time, no one wants to be bogged down by hours spent scrubbing soap scum or limescale.


To simplify your cleaning process, we've put together our top tips for cleaning every area of your bathroom without any hassle.


As a manufacturer of eco-responsible, biodegradable
RV cleaners, we've also recommended products that will leave your bathroom sparkling clean and smelling fresh.


Shower doors

Although glass shower doors are attractive in your bathroom, they can be painful to clean. 


When cleaning glass, it's essential that you use a safe-for-glass bathroom cleaner. The cleaner needs to be able to remove soap scum and water spots without damaging the glass itself.


Remember, a glass cleaner won’t cut through the grime. 


Instead, you'll need to squirt a little bit of regular bathroom cleaner onto a wet microfiber cloth. Use the cloth to wipe from the bottom up. Afterward, rinse with water from the top down and dry with a dry microfiber cloth.


Continue with the walls, always starting at the bottom and working up before moving onto the floor. Don't forget to wash the shower head and faucet.


Shower tracks

Shower

Cleaning shower tracks is much easier with the proper tool. A shower track brush, like the one from Gabe's Pride, is specially designed for this task.  


Using our shower track brush and a little of our bathroom cleaner, you should easily be able to wash the grime away from your track.  


If you have hard water or built-up mineral deposits in your bathroom, you'll need a cleaner with some grit, such as Gabe's Pride Cream Cleanser.  


With a soft cloth and minimal elbow grease, Gabe's Pride Cream Cleanser is effective and gentle.


If you have real natural stone in your bathroom, be very careful with any bathroom cleaner. Most quality bathroom cleaners have acidic properties that may harm the natural stone.  

Toilet

Just like your shower track, having the right tool and cleaners for cleaning your RV's toilet can make all the difference.


Many people make the mistake of using bleach to clean their toilets. Although it can kill germs, bleach is not cleaner and will not achieve your desired sparkling shine. 


Instead, a soft swab combined with a good cleaner is the way to go. A soft swab holds water, is hygienic, and is easier to get into tight areas. 


Using a bristle or silicone brush is not nearly as effective as the cleaning chemical drips through. This means it's just the bristles and your elbow grease doing the cleaning. 


Remember to wash the exterior of the toilet and then rinse and dry it with a clean, dry microfiber cloth.


Sink and vanity

Cleaning your RV's sink couldn't be easier - all you need is our eco-friendly bathroom cleaner with a clean microfiber cloth. 


Wet the cloth, add a little cleaner, and wash the sink, counter, and faucet. Rinse with water and dry with a fresh microfiber cloth.


Mirror

Mirrors are another part of your bathroom that is easy to clean. Spray and wipe using a clean, dry microfiber cloth and an ammonia and vinegar-free window cleaner.


Floors

RV bathrooms tend to be small, so a microfiber cloth and a spray bottle of a multi-surface cleaner are what you need. 


Spray and wipe with a wet cloth and dry for a film-free, clean floor. You can use a mop if you prefer.
