I have a glass three sided shower and I can't for the life of me get the layer of soap scum and hard water spots off. I've tried the pumice bathroom stones, vinegar, bon ami, "green" bathroom cleaners.  Anybody have some advice?
Thanks!

The only thing I could ever get it off with at our old house was a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and I had to press so hard, but doggone it, that crap came off eventually and man would my arms hurt! LOL!

Yup! Get one of those razor blade thingies that is made for scraping stuff off windows. They are super cheap- come with a handle that is shaped like a Y kindof- and are safe if you are careful with them. Then I suggest using a product on the walls call Gel Gloss- I am sure it is really not the greatest as far as natural products go- but it is like waxing your car- the water and stuff just rolls right off and you only have to apply every 6 weeks or so. I think the small use of gel gloss more than makes up for all the other cleaners you would have to use in the mean time.
