Cleaning and Chaulking the Bathtub (Tackle It Tuesday #22)

in cleaning/laundry

Tackle It Tuesday Meme

This week’s Tackle It Tuesday was one that I didn’t even have to do! Now…there is a down side to that — there are no “before” pictures. Boo! But, I didn’t have to scrub our tub — YEH!

I was able to receive a complimentary bottle of CLR Bath and Kitchen to try out for this week. So, lucky me — Eric was actually the one to give it a try.


I can’t actually say that I’m way too disappointed about not being able to share before pictures. It was gross. Seriously. You know how sometimes people say, “Oh, my bathroom is so dirty,” and it’s not really. You know — you look at it and say, “No, it looks just fine to me.” This is not one of those times. I would have been embarrassed for my own Mother to use the shower.

Not only did Eric use the CLR Bath & Kitchen to clean, but then he re-chaulked the tub! So, of course, some of the very white from the pictures can be from the new chaulk. But, check out this shower!



Eric said that he definitely still had to use a lot of elbow grease, but that he thought it was a pretty decent cleaner. He said that he didn’t really think it worked any better than anything else that we’ve used though. We did have to air out the bathroom for a long time (thank goodness it’s our bathroom that has a window), but we’re not sure if it was from the chaulk or from the cleaner.

When Noah got in the shower today, he said, “Oh Mom — I know what that’s the smell of! That is the smell of a clean shower! That means that it will help protect us from germs while we’re in the shower so we don’t get the sniffles.” That kid cracks me up! He’s like a walking commercial sometimes.

So, I not only got a free bottle of cleaner (though I don’t know that it would be one that I would have bought on my own), but also a sweetie husband to do a very gross tackle for me! Seriously — can a girl get luckier?
