We are trying to clean our white enamelled shower tray, without scratching it, as it is dappled in places with grey spots which come of witha finger nail, but not with cloths and some solutions. Does anyone know of a decent liquid type remover which would not harm the surface ?

If it's a baked enamel surface, (like on white cooker hobs), a green pot scourer and some Jif, (I refuse to call it Cif), won't harm the surface and will get rid of the spots.
Hi Hard@it,

Citric acid from the chemist or Home Brew shop will shift it. It is very mild and will do no harm.

Vinegar is another way to remove these stains but will take a little longer.

Thanks for replies, am afraid Heathfield that it's the death penalty for anyone putting a scourer or liquid abrasive near the enamel, but appreciated anyway.
I think CSG2306 that the citrus is poss the thing - but one of my friends has suggested a hand held steam cleaner, which again may do the job, and we may try that first.

The funny thing is we are in soft water area with no scale,and can only assume that it must be a new shampoo or conditioner that is the cause. Either that or we are just "clarts".

Cheers Hard@it.
Viakal should remove it
