Shower stall

I have a fiberglass shower stall I need to remove stains on the floor./ I was thinking of using a buffer, but what would be a good cleaner to apply to the buffing pad? Thanks for any help. J.

Is the floor "pebbley"? Does it has a texture to it? I have two fiberglass showers. The floors are "pebbley" to avoid slipping. I keep them both clean with Clorox brand Bathroom Cleaner with Bleach. If your floor is rough, I don't think a buffer would be much help.

Be careful you don't buff through the gel coat. It's thin and once it's gone it won't be white anymore! Also if the surface glaze is gone, it will be open to easier and deeper staining, so it would be risky all around.

If it's rust stained, something like CLR might work, bleach for mold, oven cleaner will work on grease based stains.

You might also try the 30% Hydrogen Peroxide like is used in Plating Plants, it has a very strong BLEACHING ACTION - but be very careful, wear safety glasses & rubber gloves because it will burn your skin if it comes in contact with you. Also, it is a very strong OXIDIZER.

I use muriatic acid. The 20% or something that is used for swimming pools. That is the working part of The Works and other bathroom cleaners.
 
You might try that CLR cleaner. I had rust stains in a bathroom sink that I didn't think would come out. Took a little while but they are gone.
 
I have had good luck with Easy Off Fume Free Oven Cleaner. It is in a blue can with a blue top. Yellow can with red top will destroy your fiberglass. The textured floor is a problem to get/keep clean. Lots of supporting info on Google.
 
I use Pine Sol on the shower walls and floor. I rinse with hot water. I use a paint brush for cleaning the door glass. We buy the pine sol from Sam's Club. I use it on our white vinyl fence to remove mildew. Hal
