If you are new to caring for your plastic shower curtain and you are not familiar with using soap substitutes in the washing machine, then you may be trying to figure out the best way to clean it. The thing to keep in mind is that a small amount of soap or any other liquid will have no affect on plastic. It may look like it will when you’re looking at the shower curtain and also when you’re using the wash and go option but it will actually be an impingement into the weave of the curtain that makes it not washable.

So the answer to the question “Can I wash my plastic shower curtain in the washer” is yes. Although it’s not an easy job, you can easily wash your plastic shower curtain in the washer by following these simple steps. There’s one thing to keep in mind though, before you start doing anything else in the washer that you should have the right soap for your shower curtain.

First off, if you are not using soap then you need to first use a soft sponge or towel to clean the shower curtain. Try to get all the soap and other chemicals out of the weave. You may also want to add some conditioner to the soap or liquid so it doesn’t slide around as much.

It is not recommended to put conditioner on your plastic shower curtain while you are washing it in the washer. Conditioner will only make it stronger and will not make it safe to wash. Whenyou are ready to use the machine again, you can simply wipe it with a damp cloth or use the rinse cycle to get rid of the soap.

After you have cleaned it you may want to spray it with a little water. This will help the water evaporate more quickly and it may prevent stains from building up. When you are washing the shower curtain in the washer you don’t want any water bubbles to form in the weave, this is where it can become impossible to clean and could cause a stain.

You can also use a shower curtain cleaner that’s available in most drug stores and you may also be able to get it in an office supply store. Just remember to only use the cleaner on the outermost surface of the curtain, not the inner area or the side with the inner weave.

Once you have done this you can put the plastic shower curtain in the washer. It’s recommended that you run the wash cycle for a few minutes but if you run it longer you may not get all the soap out of the weave and you may also end up leaving an impression in the fabric that you would not want.

Using a squeegee is a good way to make sure the shampoo gets down into the weave of the plastic shower curtain. You do not want a lot of the shampoo left on the shower curtain. The reason this is important is because the shampoo has the ability to make it hard to clean and you may not be able to remove any residue from the wash.

Also you could have a hard time getting all the shampoo out of the curtain, if you are using a foam brush with some soap in it. You may want to wash the shampoo and soap separately in separate loads in the washer to make sure they are completely removed from the washer.

Before you are finished washing your plastic shower curtain in the washer, it is a good idea to run a test on the remaining water to make sure it does not drip out into the room below or outside of the shower enclosure. If you notice that the water still runs down the drain it is safe to continue to use it and if you do it will probably not be too difficult to get it cleaned again after a short period of time.
