Never use abrasive cleaners on acrylic baths or on chrome or gold-plated bath fittings: you’ll spoil the beautiful finish. Bleach can also damage the surface of baths, so always choose cleaners that are specially formulated for use on acrylic baths. Or for a truly budget solution, make your own from a mixture of half vinegar, half warm water: this is great for removing mild rust and hard water stains.
The real key to maintaining a beautiful fresh whirlpool bath is regular care and prompt cleaning. Don’t let dirt, grime or limescale build up, and you’ll have a luxurious bath to sink into for many years to come.
