You might want to google "white vinegar" to see all the cleaning jobs it
can do.


It will evaporate, leaving no residue on things like windows and
mirrors, and it eats soap scum on shower walls. It's also cheap.
The muratic acid mentioned will remove rust stains from plumbing
fixtures, and vinegar won't. However hydrochloric [muratic] acid fumes
are highly corrosive.
