Remove yellowing from bathtub using special paste that lifts stains

Yellow stains in your bathroom are unsightly and should be targeted as soon as they arise. They can affect your sink, toilet, as well as your bathtub.

In this case, the focus is on whitening your bathtub again after yellow hues have taken over.

Yellow stains and discoloration can make your bathtub look neglected despite putting your best efforts into scrubbing it down.

If you’ve already put a bunch of elbow grease into it, you should probably consider a different method to remove yellow spots from your tub.

Make a paste using hydrogen peroxide and baking soda, and apply it to your bathtub evenly, with extra focus on the areas that are stained.

The paste should sit for 20 minutes. Use a delicate sponge, or an eraser/melamine sponge, to firmly scrub out the stains.

Rinse your bathtub out, and repeat the steps if needed until all the dirty bits have entirely vanished.
