In general, acrylic bathtubs are favored because they’re comparatively cheap, durable and lightweight. This makes them a virtually automated choice for house owners who need to install a tub on the higher floor of the their houses.

This sort of bathtub comes in a selection of sizes and styles. Many of them are designed to have a more modern feel, although some, like the acrylic clawfoot bathtubs, have a slightly classic feel to it.

Acrylic bathtubs often look great since they have a glossy finish and are presently available in a few colors other than white. In fact , some models are entirely clear while some others are even illuminated. It might not be everyones mug of tea but it will surely add some colour and lighting to a toilet.

Though acrylic bathtubs were engineered to resist stains, in time, they can finally get stained. But fret not, all isn’t lost. Here are a few tips about how to stop stains and also remove them safely without hurting your gorgeous acrylic bathtub.

Avoiding Stains
I generally don’t like cleaning bathtubs regardless of how simple it is to do it today. But it is something that needs to be done. I often preach cleaning an acrylic bathtub frequently enough to prevent the occurrence of stains. All that it takes is a little bit of discipline and five minutes of your time every 3 or 4 days. Actually that isn’t too much to ask.

If you clean your acrylic bathtub frequently you don’t have to clean too tough to get the build up out and so the risk of hurting your bathtub is lower.

What You Will Need
Give full consideration to not use abrasive materials or powerful cleaning solutions on acrylic bathtubs or you might end up scratching or pitting them. You don’t actually need strong cleaning solutions to get the job finished.

Amazingly, all that you need is your everyday dish washing liquid or gel. Nonetheless if you prefer to utilize a solution in particular intended for bathtubs, ensure you get those which in particular states that they are meant for use with acrylic surfaces. You will also require a bottle of acetone-free glass cleaner.

You could be nearly convinced to use abrasive brushes if you see stubborn looking stains but please desist from doing that. Just stick to using soft cotton, or my favourite, micro fiber material.

How To Clean Acrylic Bathtubs
The first thing you have to do is rinse the tub with some warm water. Then add some washing liquid to your fabric and using concentric circles, start cleaning your acrylic bathtub from the top down.

Rinse the tub, dry it and spray some acetone-free glass cleaner on the surface. Give your tub a good wipe straight away and you need to see the outer surface of your acrylic bathtub return to its glossy glory.

To sum it all up,

• Everyday dish washing liquid is perfect for cleaning acrylic bathtubs
• Use micro fiber cloth or soft cotton instead of abrasive brushes
