Shower Curtain Liner?

prncsstp

How do you clean your shower curtain liners? Do you throw them in the wash? Use some sort of cleaning spray? Dont clean them, and just throw them out?

School me here!

I re-use them- if I let L play with water or paint I will put it on the floor...

I save them for when my husband paints or does a "project"....helps with clean up

I put them in the washing machine every so often, but personally it's a pain to take it off the hooks.  I usually do a splash of bleach in a bucket, fill with warm/hot water, and soak the end (it's off white), and let it soak.  Does the trick.

Not gonna lie, I generally just throw them away and get a new one when the old when is gross.  I know it's not very green of me...

Arctic - do you have open or S hooks? That makes it easier?

I have a fabric liner and curtain now - bought a couple years ago from a rec on here (I think from June?). Love it! I'll never go back to plastic again. It also doesn't cling to your leg like the plastic ones do. I just take it off and throw in the washer every other week or so. About half the time I skip the dryer if one of us need to shower, but it goes thru the dryer well also.

Our liner is fabric, I toss it in the wash EO week or so with my whites. I just replaced my hooks to the double open ended ones so it is easy to slip on and off.

I used to get the plastic ones but the smell was horrible.

Yep - we have fabric too (I wrote up a rave too but I think it was just last year)

That and S hooks (or even better the upside down T hook so you can ONLY take off the liner if you want) are a lifechanging combination!

I usually toss both in the washer together, then go clean the tub/shower, do a light dry on them and put them back up a little damp. It feels like a spa in there when it's done! Haha..

We have hooks where I have to open every single one, it is a pain to open up all the hooks (kind of hurts my fingers).  I will have to check out the hooks you guys are talking about!

We got a fabric liner recently and I plan on throwing it in the wash when it gets dirty.  I'll have to look in to those different kinds of hooks, it's definitely a PITA trying to open each one!
