I can identify with the photo. Our new acrylic tub looked the same! The suggestion worked to use ceramic stove top cleaner (Bar Keeper’s Friend) and heavy duty plastic scour pads with a lot of rubbing. The bottom of our tub has a rough surface and now it is even better and the ugly spots from the essential oil I put in the water are all gone. Lesson learned – NO MORE ESSENTIAL OILS IN THE ACRYLIC TUB.
I found that bon ami cleaning powder and rubbing alcohol with a lot of scrubbing worked okay for me, but did leave some minor abrasions on the acrylic. I had long drips down the side of the shower, so I used a sharpie pen covered in a cloth to provide pointed pressure and scrubbing as I applied the powder and alcohol repeatedly.
I tried everything to no avail. on brand new pedestal acrylic tub. However, the suggestion to use ceramic stove top cleaner seemed to work the best along with with a scraper that is used on glass top or ceramic stove tops (fine razor). Took 90% of it off Will try again later p.s I will NEVER use essential oils in the tub ever again
Same problem on my brand new fancy pedestal tub! Ceramic stove top cleaner and a non scratch pad!
“Gumption” and a lot of elbow grease worked for me.
I’m having the same problem. Any answers to solve this dilemma?
Almost impossible I would love an answer
Try oven cleaner
I’d love an answer too….I have the same problem. Vinegar, baking soda, lemon juice, methylated spirits…nothing works!
Why hasn’t this question been answered? I’m in the same predicament and need help. Is it possible to remove? If not, can it be repaired by acrylic tub specialist – like I know can be done with scratches?
