We've been users of the Wet & Forget family of products for many years now. They work, that's why we continue to use them.

Our first introduction to Wet & Forget was their outdoor product which we first tried at Steph's house many years ago. It has worked so well over the years that she's never had to have the outside of her house professionally cleaned. 

While working on this post, we marveled at how good the outside of her house looked six months after the latest application of Wet & Forget Outdoor cleaner!

Now, we take you inside to share the results of using Wet and Forget Shower. 

Product:


  • Wet & Forget Shower Cleaner Weekly Application Requires No Scrubbing, Bleach-Free Formula, 64 Ounce (Amazon)

  • Wet & Forget Shower Cleaner Multi-Surface Weekly No Scrub, Bleach-Free Formula Vanilla Scent, 128.00 Fl Oz Refill (Amazon)

Here are three products that I've used to clean up heavy build up before starting my Wet & Forget Shower routine:
  • EcoLab Foaming Shower cleaner
  • Lime-A-Way 
  • Mold Armor Rapid Clean Remediation

This this is a look at the shower after using Wet & Forge Shower cleaner.
Steph started using Wet & Forget Shower cleaner five years ago. She doesn't use it weekly, but when she thinks the shower needs to be cleaned. Steph's shower is old with a lot of hard water build up and damage to various parts of the shower so she has to be content with "clean enough".

The grout is permanently stained due to age so it's never going to look perfect, but it is clean.
Showing how to use Wet & Forget Shower.
I started using Wet & Forget Shower about two months ago. After showering, while the walls are wet, you simply spray it on, leave it for 24 hours, then rinse it off.
Rinse the Wet & Forget Shower after 24 hours.
Twenty-four hours later, rinse it off. For even better results, take a minute to squeegee or wipe dry any glass in the shower after use. That really helps to prevent a build-up of hard water stains. Be sure to rinse the product before your next shower to prevent slipping.
Spray down the product after 24 hours.
Steph has a hand-held shower sprayer which makes it easy to spray down her shower after applying the product.
Use a Swiffer Sweeper with the addition of a microfiber cloth to rinse away the wet and forget.
There is no hand-held shower in my shower so it's a little more challenging to rinse off the product. I've found it easiest to put a microfiber cloth on a Swiffer Sweeper, dip it in a bucket of water, and then wipe the product away.
I keep my shower cleaning stuff in a plastic caddy including a mask to wear when spraying the product.

Clean any really dirty areas of the shower before starting a weekly routine of using Wet & Forget Shower Cleaner.
Hard water spotting in this shower is a really big problem as you can see. If you have hard-water spotting to this degree, you will have to manually clean it before starting a weekly routine of Wet & Forget Shower. The product will not get rid of build-up like this, but after it's clean and you start using it, the results below speak for themselves! (In case you're wondering about the purple shampoo in the picture. That's the secret to keeping my white hair from looking brassy!)
Results of consistent use of Wet & Forget Shower Cleaner.
It makes me so happy to see this glass clean and clear!
Testing Wet & Forget shower on a stain on Cambria quartz countertop.
Although this staining around the faucet is minor, it always bothered me. I've tried many things to clean it with no change. I've used so many things that I actually damaged the countertop to the right of the faucet. I tested a sample of Cambria quartz with the Wet & Forget Shower. I left it on 24 hours and saw that it didn't damage the material so I tried it in this area.
the Wet & Forget Shower Cleaner worked to clean the yellow staining on the Cambria quartz countertop.
I used the product over the course of a month and finally, the stain disappeared! It didn't get rid of that staining on the edge as that is one of the areas I previously damaged using other products. (Don't be like me, read all the cleaning instruction for your new countertops!)
Another thing I've started doing to help keep the shower cleaner is to stop storing bath products in the shower. Leaving bottles and more in the shower just creates more areas to clean. Now I leave everything in a plastic caddy (like the one for the Wet and Forget cleaning stuff) and just bring it to the shower when I need it. Without the bottles and such in the way, it's much easier to spray on the Wet & Forget as well as to wipe down the shower glass after showering.
