Clean tile in the shower
Power scrubber to the rescue! Combine a drill, soap, dispenser brush, bolt, washer, and machine screw, and dip in soap. (Be sure to watch the video to see how they fit together.) Turn on the drill, and power was away the grime!

Clean moldy shower curtains
Combine 500 milliliters (16.9 fluid ounces) of bleach with two tablespoons of dish soap and spray on the shower curtain. Let sit 10 minutes before rinsing, and your curtains will be good as new.
