As mundane as this is - it's Saturday, chore day in my world. Having always lived in old houses with porcelin tubs, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to clean the fiberglass monstrosities in the new house. Have tried everything from baking soda & vinegar to a cleaning product containing hydrofluoric acid. I can't get that pebbled surface on the bottom of the tub clean. Help! Anybody have any suggestions???
I can never remember which is better . . . safe? . . . or sorry?

...a well placed wood pallet in the tub should do the trick.
Gone fishing!!

LA, for what it's worth, I have used baking soda with excellent results. Afterwards, I rinse it with a weak bleach solution, and it comes out sparkling clean. Be careful of using anything that scratches..once they are scratched, they can't be cleaned very well.
At what age is it determined I am old enough to know better?

Bill, unfortunately it looks like that's exactly what I've done with it for the past four months! Jesse, thanks - but I googled weeks ago - already tried most of the stuff found there.

This usually works for me...... "Jane, the shower needs cleaning"
It's rarely rocket science, it's usually just math: then again if you can't do the math.......

my apologies, pug, for not being clearer - I just wanted you to send Jane over, not accompany her
