I was trying to get out a stain in my tub and used a Brillo pad.It got out the stain but now part of my tub has a blue stain that I cannot get out.I've tried Fantastic-Heavy Duty;Kaboom tub and tile and Scrubbing Bubbles.None of them are getting out the blue stain.
Can someone please reccommend a really good tub and tile cleaner that might get that blue stain out??
Thanks for any help.

I would try Clorox Cleanup. It takes coffee stains out of my mugs within seconds!!!!
 
why not add yellow bubble bath and then you and your s/o can take a green bath on st. paddys day.
 
Thank you for your suggestions.I'll get both Magic Eraser and Clorox Cleanup.Hopefully one of them will work and get that ugly blue film out of my tub.
And adding yellow bubble bath sounds like a fun suggestion.Mmm.It's worth a try!!
 
Is your tub porcelain or fiberglass? Are you sure that you haven't scratched the tub?

I am wondering if the blue tinge that you are seeing is where you have scratched the porcelain coating off. You may have to have it professionally recoated to remove the scratches. Basically a brillo pad is strips of metal that are used to scrape the soil/stain away. If the tub is porcelain, then you have a metal against glass effect.. scratches.
 
for stains...bon ami and a dobie sponge (great for scrubbing, doesn't scratch)

I hope you didn't scratch the finish. I did that on a fridge in my 1st appt!
