this is going to sound crazy but trust me! i have fought with my tub for 5 years and FINALLY found the combo that works. The night before you want to scrub your tub, fill your tub with the hottest water possible and a capful of LAUNDRY DETERGENT! yup - and you MUST get detergent that has enzymes - any of the commercial ones do well (I like the Tide with the fancy lavender vanilla scent). Let it sit overnight - the detergent is going to get into all the dirty pores in your tubs and the enzymes are going to eat away the grime. The next day, rinse your tub really well. Then use Softscrub WITH BLEACH (use as directed) and rinse well again. I promise your tub will sparkle like a commercial!

good luck! and remember, don't use anything with ammonia (like scrubbing bubbles) when you're using anything with bleach.

You need to use the Mr. Clean Magic Erasers! If you get the Extra Power ones...it's even better. You can use them with any cleanser and it takes off everything. (Those are the handiest items and will literally take permanent marker off walls.)

I have an old clawfoot tub. First I run the shower to get it wet then I sprinkle some Comet powder on and use a scrub brush to scrub & spread it around. I let it sit for a few moments then go back in and rinse with bath water. The tub cleaning routine is always before my son's bath. My husband thinks I'm crazy that I do it every time but it's a good routine.

My company has a product called Scour Off that gets permanent marker off formica. And the best part is that it is nontoxic and green. Let me know if you want more information.
