How To Clean A Brown Stained Shower Pan

SarahS

Hi everyone - we accept a 4 twelvemonth quondam Hymer B544 and at that place are some nasty looking brownish stains on the white shower tray caused by the 'decorative' wooden shower tray - I am guessing part stain from the woods and prophylactic anxiety, and part rub from travelling. I am wondering what might remove these stains and whether anyone has any tips? I am loathe to use bleach / a scourer as not sure whether that will denature the plastic. An internet search pulls up bicarb with lemon juice / vinegar but I don't think that would be strong enough to take the stains out.

Welcome any advice!
Cheers all!!

I utilise tablespoon of citric acrid with just a drop of water rub on very gently leave overnight then rinse off.

Do non use bleach blazon cleaners. WD40 could well practice the task without dissentious the acrylic capped surface.

Mine has those also, we just ignore it as you tin't see them when the boards are in identify.

SarahS

Thanks all. Will effort some citric acid and the WD40 ( not together!). Will report back. ?

Hello everyone - we take a iv twelvemonth one-time Hymer B544 and there are some nasty looking brown stains on the white shower tray caused by the 'decorative' wooden shower tray - I am guessing part stain from the wood and safety feet, and part rub from travelling. I am wondering what might remove these stains and whether anyone has any tips? I am loathe to use bleach / a scourer as not sure whether that volition denature the plastic. An internet search pulls up bicarb with lemon juice / vinegar but I don't think that would be stiff enough to accept the stains out.
Welcome any advice!

did you get a issue?

I know this is no assistance now, but when you get the stains off, put the wooden duck board in your loft. That's where nosotros keep ours. I don't see any benefit of standing on them in the shower, and @Hils and Glenn, who also have a Hymer, have a sticker in their shower saying they should not be used to stand on!

Hope you lot manage to get the stains off.

I have to say I have an intense dislike of them, after working in the Virgin Islands. I cleaned luxury charter yachts, and had to scrub them at the finish of every charter - they were furry, green and completely gross!

They are usually oiled teak, so a corking grease cut liquid detergent should work.

Just found this on a boating website - it'southward American, and Dawn is a liquid detergent, merely we surely take equivalents.....

Use the toilet, it's bugger pushing it downwardly the plug pigsty with your big toe.

We always accept a block of "Magic Eraser" around - it's a micropore sponge type affair that rarely fails to shift stains. Apply it with just water, or a driblet of detergent if yous wish. It is "abrasive", that's how it works, only on a very mild scale.

Thanks will see if I tin can notice an equivalent. We have indeed removed the wooden boards - they volition come up in handy in the winter for the burn down particularly if they are oiled !! No idea why they are used equally IMO they are pointless and every bit you Say they get filthy. And leave nasty stains backside!

We ever have a block of "Magic Eraser" around - it's a micropore sponge type thing that rarely fails to shift stains. Employ it with just water, or a driblet of detergent if y'all wish. It is "abrasive", that'due south how it works, but on a very mild calibration.

Thanks! I think we might have one of those somewhere...

When we first started using ours we had this problem, merely much fainter than yours. Managed to get information technology off with scrubbing and Mr Musculus bathroom cleaner from memory. To make sure it never happened again I stuck duct record on the underside of the supports. No problems for the last 3 years.

very fine wet and dry with soap.

I really don't sympathize why people pay £150 for a useless bit of timber in the shower. Nosotros have never bothered with that choice on any of our Hymers.

TerryL

Ours came with the van too - merely someone else paid for information technology....................

Patently it was an optional extra (the guy who starting time owned the van it specced it with all the options) costing £50! We exit it in all the time but don't have any trouble with it. And as for oiling - if it's genuine teak it should never need information technology.

I know this is no aid now, but when you become the stains off, put the wooden duck lath in your loft. That'south where nosotros keep ours. I don't come across any do good of standing on them in the shower, and @Hils and Glenn, who as well have a Hymer, accept a sticker in their shower saying they should not be used to stand on!

Concur The Hymer Transmission says have the board out when using the shower I know this isnt helpful simply could be when you lot accept got the stains out.

Apparently information technology was an optional extra (the guy who kickoff endemic the van it specced information technology with all the options) costing £l! Nosotros get out information technology in all the fourth dimension merely don't have whatever problem with information technology. And as for oiling - if it'southward genuine teak it should never need it.

Terry, I cleaned luxury sailing yachts in the BVI and I was tasked to oil most a mile of teak inside and exterior the yacht every fourth dimension it came off charter - are yous saying I was doing something that didn't need to be washed?!

Believe me, scrubbing the shower boards was the worst task - absolutely gross - I did get to take the food dwelling though - the rich people always had the yacht provisioned, but ate out most nights - just time I always ate veal escalopes ......

SarahS

Thank you to all for the ideas and aid! Sadly nothing has worked every bit all the same. Have tried lemon juice, vinegar, WD40, toothpaste (wondered if this might be a bit like wet and dry...), the white magic sponge thingy, and scrubbing with lather and water.
We accept at present relented and bought a shower mat that y'all can cut to size to hide the marks!!

cliffanger

I don't know if i'll be frowned upon, but I have been known to utilise Jif/Cif on shower trays.

Accept you lot tried that Sarah? Although I remember the shower mat is a dandy idea. Expert for protecting the shower base of operations when packing stuff in it for travelling!
