I have tile on my countertops and I did apply auto wax to them before I used them. Come to think of it, the water is easy to clean up. Maybe I'll try it in my new shower before it gets awful like the one we've been using one year.

I've had good results with CLR by soaking a rag with it and letting the wet rag cover the deposits for about 1/2 hour and then scraping/brushing off. All my deposits came off readily. I don't know if the hard water in MX has a different chemical makeup than those in WA State though.
Getting older and still not down here.

Just for the record - today we tried the Mexican equivalent of "Shower Power". We're trying to go from the most straightforward to the most extreme here.

I doesn't work. Applied it three times. Result: one small patch of white crud came loose.

We had our own hard water well in the state of
Washington and what we had to use on our tile showers was a product called: ZUD
It was the ONLY thing that worked. I haven't seen it here in Mexico.

I must have read your "byline" a hundred times and I finally have to tell you: "I LOVE IT"

Now that's what I'd call a big help! You did say you're planning to tootle on up to Washington and bring me back a case or two, or did I miss that ??

I'll toodle on up if you'll pay for the airfare!
