Glass shower doors look amazing in your home, especially when they're brand new. So, it's no wonder that you want to keep them looking perfect and new for as long as possible. Here are five handy tips to help you keep yours in great condition.

1. Clean the Shower After Every Use

Rather than put off cleaning for a later time which may never come around, clean your shower immediately after you shower. If you clean before you even open the doors to get out of the shower, the steam that has accumulated will help make the cleaning easier and faster.

2. Start Using a Non-Talc Soap

Most bar soaps contain a lot of talc, and this is responsible for grime buildup on the glass shower doors. If you make the switch to non-talc soap, you will notice that the glass surfaces of your shower stay cleaner for longer between cleanings.

3. Clean the Metal Tracks, as Well

When cleaning, don't forget about the metal tracks that your shower doors run on. Clean these on a regular basis so that grime doesn't build up on them to the point that they get hard to clean with cleaning solutions. Plug any drains and fill the tracks with a home cleaning solution like vinegar and water, and let it sit overnight. This should make it easy to get rid of the dirt that has accumulated in it over time, and you can get your fresh shower back!

4. Use a Microfiber Towel

To get the very best results from cleaning, use a microfiber cloth, which is recommended for cleaning brushed nickel fixtures in your bathroom. A good buffing with a microfiber cloth every day will keep these fixtures in great condition for a long time to come. Polish them with a paste wax once every month for even better results. According to Superior Showers, tempered glass for frameless showers is made in 1/2 inch and 3/8 inch thicknesses, making it extremely sturdy. It's also treated to reduce the risk of injuries in the event that it breaks, so you should have no worries about cleaning it as long as you don't use too much force.

5. Clean With a Solution of Vinegar and Water

Finally, make use of a homemade cleaner of water and vinegar to keep your glass shower doors looking as good as new. To remove extra stubborn stains, you could make a paste of baking soda, salt, and a little water to wipe them down gently. Rinse this off with water to reveal sparkling glass doors.
