Answers:
You can try Dawn, as others have suggested. Or lightly wet the tub with white distilled vinegar. Then sprinkle some baking soda all over the tub. It will start to fizz-this is normal. Let it sit for about 10 minutes. Add 1 cup of the vinegar and scrub with a scrub brush. Drain the vinegar and rinse.
If you have any liquid dishwasher detergent even the cheapo stuff rub that on the inside of the tub, let it sit and rinse with really hot water... Soft scrub also works... Try using scotch brite no scratch scrub pads.. NOT Brillo, scotch brite.. They are green and plastic feeling... Good luck...
Try with baking powder, fill the bath with a little warm water, just enough to cover the stains. then add plenty baking powder, leave for 10 min´s. This works on pots and pans with burnt on stains and grease, it might work on your bath. It´s worth a try
try dawn dish soap
Fast orange or gojo, the common cleaners for your hands when they are greasy, works really well. I used to use this on my boyfriend's clothes and the bathroom counters and such when he washed up after working on cars. Just put some on a damp cloth, wipe it over the stains a few times and rinse really well.
Good luck =)
My husband is a machanic. I use The Works on our tub. You can use a can of Coke to rinse out the tub because Coke has a emsine in it that helps get rid of oil/grease in clothes. You put a can of it in the laundry with your clothes and the oil/grease is gone.
