55-Gallon Drum of Scum Bum Ready-To-Use

Struggling with stuck-on scale and hard-water deposits? Rust stains? Don't scrub them out, Bum them out!

Scale and hard water stains in the bathroom, shower, toilet, or elsewhere are ugly and tenacious (as in "can't get them off without a jack hammer"). They haven't met Scum Bum.

Whether you have a new or older home, inherited the problem, use well water, or are just plain driven to distraction, Scum Bum is a highly effective green cleaner, personally safe cleaner and environmentally friendly cleaner that gently dissolves even the toughest scale, mineral deposits, hard water stains and soap scum. Also removes mold and mildew.

Just spray it on. It won't create noxious fumes or etch or corrode non-porous surfaces. Use Scum Bum anywhere scale and hard water are driving you crazy: showers, tubs, faucets, hot tubs, spas, sinks, swimming pools, even irons and coffee makers. Use it on porcelain, glazed tile, chrome, stainless steel, fiberglass and plastics. Although we make no medical claims, Scum Bum is used by many chemically sensitive people and is Green Cross Certified.

Safe for Septic Systems.  Not recommended for use on marble, stone surfaces or colored grout.

Speed Cleaning FAQs

Our mission is to save you time. The Speed Cleaning method was developed after thousands of hours of testing the most efficient way to clean a home, including timing even the smallest motion, so we can cut your cleaning time in half or more! That's why we spent years perfecting our products and formulas to make sure they worked quickly and efficiently, too.

It's a commonly held belief that non-toxic cleaners don't clean as well as their toxic counterparts. Well, we cracked that code nearly 40 years ago and created formulas that clean better than their toxic grocery store equivalents...all while being safe for both you and the environment!

Red Juice wins that category by a long shot! It is our non-toxic, all purpose, heavy duty degreaser. It is a concentrated formula so you can make lots of bottles of ready to use cleaner with one bottle of concentrate (saves $ and plastic waste!). It is the most popular product used by professional cleaning businesses (especially the gallon size) as well as everyone else!

Already think you clean pretty fast? Just wait until you use the Speed Cleaning method...seriously! Does Speed Cleaning just mean you rush? Nope. Does it mean you skip things? Nope. What about paying attention to special details? We do that, too. Well, then how do you cut down my cleaning time? It's science, people! Tested and proven! (and with 40 years of amazing results from our customers!)

So glad I finally ordered Scum Bum

So glad I finally ordered Scum Bum. Two things had kept me from ordering the name and the price. The first reason was silly and the second was because I had never invested in a cleaner at that level before. I am so glad I did. I hate scrubbing the tub/shower so it gets neglected and we have hard water. I used most of the first bottle to thoroughly spray down the whole shower top to bottom used a scrub brush just to spread it more evenly and let it sit for about 15-20 minutes. I was able to get the first layer off with light scrubbing. The next day I did another round but broke it into sections again letting it set several minutes first. This time it took the rest of the hard water and soap scum completely. The cleaner smell isn’t any stronger than vinegar and more pleasant. It also seems to leave a little bit of a barrier to buildup after cleaning. The water almost beads up. I have recommended it to family and friends now.

I have recommended all products to my cleaning friends

I have recommended all products to my cleaning friends. I love how it cuts soap scum. Makes tubs and showers look new again. I've just put in an order for the entire cleaning kit and ordered gallon's of your products. A bottle isn't enough to have. A gallon is a must for a stand by. So happy to find good products.

I am seriously amazed

I am seriously amazed. My stainless steel sink is six years old, and I live where there is very hard water. My water softener broke right after I had the sink installed, and it looked really bad. Now it's taking multiple applications, but my sink is starting to look so much better. I'm so happy. I will share photos. I do have before and after as far as I've gone so far.

I’ve cleaned 13 showers with hard water on the glass doors so far with this product

I’ve cleaned 13 showers with hard water on the glass doors so far with this product. It does a decent job on the hard water spots but it does leave some behind. I feel like it may take care of most of the remaining spots after a few cleans. I have an issue with how strong the smell is. I have to spray it on and leave the bathroom with the fan running for awhile before going back in. Learned that after the first time using it, breathed it in and couldn’t stop coughing. Overall a great product.

SURPRISE

OMG- it fricking worked! I had a build up on my shower wall of soap scum. I have tried MANY cleaners. I just a desperate clean nut frustrated that I can’t get this **** off my shower wall. I was so happy- I called my sister and sent pictures. I’m gonna go to my kids house and try it on their EXTREMELY coated shower wall! But on Yelp I can post the pictures :) I’m gonna order another right now
