Simple Bathroom Before and After

13 years ago

Bought a house last year which I fixed up to rent out until I move in later this year - not nearly as fancy as most on here but proud of the results anyway. Kept the retro look.

I use BarKeepers Friend. You can find it at Walmart where the cleaning supplies are. I had a bath tub that was so dirty on the bottom where the skid free lines are. I sprinkled it on with a little water and scrubbed with a brush. It got so clean that I thought the skid free lines had dissapeared. It still is beautiful after 15 years. Clean it weekly with the BarKeepers Friend. It also works on stainless steel, and formica countertops. It's cheap too $1.92 a can.

Wow. Did you totally replace that tub, or pull some other kind of magic? Looks great!
