Kaboom Shower Tub & Tile Cleaner
Our Kaboom shower cleaner harnesses the power of OxiClean™ Stain Fighters to eliminate soap scum, hard water deposits, and bathroom grime without exhausting scrubbing. The foaming formula clings to vertical surfaces, working in seconds to break down buildup on tile, tubs, glass shower doors, and fixtures.
We designed this cleaner for busy households that want professional-grade results with minimal effort. Simply spray, watch the foam work, and rinse clean — no harsh scrubbing required. The bottle delivers approximately 60 applications per 32 fl oz container, making it ideal for weekly maintenance or deep cleaning sessions.
Formula & surface compatibility
OxiClean™ Stain Fighting Technology
The kaboom shower cleaner formula combines oxygen-based cleaning agents with surfactants that target the molecular structure of soap scum and mineral deposits. When you spray the product onto bathroom surfaces, the foam expands to increase contact area and dwell time, allowing active ingredients to penetrate layers of buildup that typical cleaners miss.
Unlike chlorine bleach cleaners that primarily mask stains through whitening, our OxiClean™ technology actually breaks down the chemical bonds in soap residue and calcium deposits. This means you achieve genuinely clean surfaces rather than temporarily brightened ones. The oxygen bubbles lift grime away from tile grout, glass, and fixtures, making rinsing effortless and leaving no sticky residue behind.
Surface Compatibility & Application
Safe for Common Bathroom Materials
Our shower tub and tile cleaner works effectively on porcelain bathtubs, ceramic tile, fiberglass shower enclosures, tempered glass doors, chrome fixtures, and sealed natural stone. We formulated it to avoid etching or dulling surfaces when used as directed.
For best results, spray kaboom shower cleaner generously onto dry surfaces from 6-8 inches away. Allow the foam to work for 15-30 seconds on moderate buildup, or up to 2 minutes for heavy soap scum and hard water stains. Wipe with a damp cloth or sponge, then rinse thoroughly with water. For grout lines and textured tile, use a soft-bristle brush to work the foam into crevices before rinsing.
Maintenance Schedule & Usage Tips
For standard household showers with daily use, we recommend applying kaboom shower cleaner once per week to prevent soap scum accumulation. High-traffic bathrooms or homes with hard water may benefit from twice-weekly applications to maintain spotless surfaces.
Between deep cleans, a quick spray-and-rinse after your last shower of the day keeps surfaces fresher longer. The 32 oz bottle includes measurement markers on the back, helping you track usage and plan replenishment. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight to preserve formula potency.

Common Questions About Kaboom Shower Tub & Tile Cleaner
For light to moderate soap scum and water spots, allow the foam to work for 15-30 seconds before wiping. For heavy buildup, stubborn hard water stains, or neglected surfaces, you can let it sit for up to 2 minutes.
The foam will begin to break down grime within seconds of contact, but extra dwell time allows the OxiClean™ Stain Fighters to penetrate deeper layers. Avoid letting the product dry completely on surfaces — wipe and rinse before it becomes tacky.
Our formula is safe for sealed natural stone surfaces like granite and marble, but we recommend testing in an inconspicuous area first. Unsealed or improperly sealed stone can be damaged by oxygen-based cleaners.
For best results on natural stone, verify your tile has been properly sealed within the last 1-2 years. If you're uncertain about your stone's sealing status, consult the original installer or use a pH-neutral stone cleaner instead. The product works beautifully on porcelain, ceramic, and glass without any special precautions.
Yes, kaboom shower cleaner is safe for acrylic and fiberglass shower enclosures when used as directed. The non-abrasive formula won't scratch or dull acrylic surfaces the way scrubbing powders can.
Spray onto the acrylic surface, allow 15-30 seconds of contact time, then wipe with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly with water. For best results on acrylic, avoid using abrasive scrub pads or brushes that might create micro-scratches, even when using our gentle formula.
A 32 fl oz bottle provides approximately 60 applications for an average-sized shower stall (roughly 40 square feet of surface area). Actual coverage depends on spray technique and surface condition.
If you're treating heavy buildup, you'll use more product per session. Light maintenance cleaning uses less. Most households cleaning a standard shower once per week can expect the bottle to last 12-15 weeks. Track your usage using the measurement markers printed on the back of the bottle.
No, our kaboom shower cleaner formula does not contain chlorine bleach. We use oxygen-based cleaning agents (OxiClean™ Stain Fighters) that break down into water and oxygen after use.
This makes the product safer for septic systems and reduces harsh fumes compared to traditional bleach-based bathroom cleaners. While gentler than bleach, we still recommend using the product in well-ventilated areas and wearing gloves if you have sensitive skin. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
Kaboom shower cleaner effectively removes light mold and mildew discoloration from grout and tile surfaces. For heavy black mold stains or deep-set mildew in porous grout, we recommend using our specialized kaboom mold and mildew formula for best results.
The shower tub and tile cleaner works well for preventive maintenance and light staining. Apply it to grout lines, let it sit for 1-2 minutes, then scrub gently with a soft-bristle grout brush before rinsing. For stubborn mold that returns frequently, address underlying moisture issues in addition to regular cleaning.
No, never mix kaboom shower cleaner with other cleaning products, especially those containing ammonia, acids, or bleach. Combining cleaning chemicals can create dangerous fumes or reduce cleaning effectiveness.
Use our product alone as directed for safe, optimal results. If you've recently used another cleaner on the same surface, rinse thoroughly with water and allow to dry before applying kaboom shower cleaner. The formula is designed to work independently without requiring boosters or additives.
