How to clean glass shower doors with dryer sheets. Heat 12-cup undiluted vinegar in microwave for 30 seconds. Use a microfiber cloth to get water spots off the glass shower doors. Sprinkle it with a few drops of water then use it to wipe away built-up soap residue on your shower doors.

The baking soda acts as an abrasive while the vinegar dissolves the hard water spots and soap scum. Dryer sheets unlike traditional cleaners contain ingredients that are known to help soften fabrics and absorb things like static and hairand the same goes for scum. Maybe not literally although my elbow has smacked the hard glass many times but when its time to clean the bathroom getting a few weeks worth of soap scum and grime off the shiny clear surface becomes an insurmountable task.
This might not work if the stain is stubborn and dryer sheets may leave scents on the door.
