Mobile Removing limescale on shower screens

I've just moved into a new build and determined to keep the bathrooms spotless! However water is so hard here it's so hard to get the shower screens super clean, despite them apparently being 'easy clean'. I've used bathroom cleaner and glass cleaner but I can still see,and feel, limescale droplets. Any tips?

Oops scrap this thread. Just read instructions and it says use warm water only and don't let limescale build up 😕

We have hard water too and I use Jeyes limescale remover, it's the best I've used! I got a stock in ALDI, but I've been told of it's in Poundstretchers too! It's a gel with a silicone brush head, I just wipe it all over, leave a few minutes, then wash off. Squeegee the glass if you can be bothered and wipe over with another dry cloth.

We use Lime Lite. As long as you rinse well afterwards it won't cause any damage.

The Jeyes is much better than Lime lite! I've tried the lot! I like HG products too, but they are much dearer and no better results than Jeyes.

The advantage of living in S. Wales! No limescale.
I do feel for those of you who suffer, my Daughter in Notts has terrible trouble getting it off taps, showers etc.

Yeah it's Notts.

I think I'm just going to have to do it with warm water as it says no detergent or bleach (used glass cleaner on it, oops)

I find using a bowl of soapy liquid (fairy) and a sponge works best for us. Then karcher off with our window vac. Job done !

What are they like these Karcher window things? I looked at one on Amazon and they seem excellent looking at the reviews.
