to remove that dreaded soap scum that accumulates on the bottom of the tub, I use granulated dish washer detergent. I use it like scouring powder, but it is not abrasive, and the bleach in it is disinfecting.

I thought this would have been mentioned, but shaving creams do work on tub rings. Spray generous on the affected area, leave on for 20 minutes and then scrub off. Repeat if necessary.

Dryer sheets work amazing with very little scrubbing. You can actually use a used one. I use them in the winter in my laundry and save them for use year round. I have heard that liquid fabric softener works well too but I have never tried this as the sheets work so well.

My apt's tub surround had clearly been scratched up–the finish of the walls was dull and dingy…. so after throughly cleaning the tub/surround and not being terribly happy with the result I found some 'Turtle Wax" (car wax) under the kitchen sink– after some (2-minutes or so) consideration I applied the wax to the walls of the tub surround (followed the directions for use on cars) and after it 'dried to a haze' I buffed it off. Viola! Shinier walls! Over all I gave it about two coats of wax (just on the walls– and above where a tub full of water would reach… I don't really want to be bathing in turtle wax). It filled in the scratches and has helped keep my tub surround much cleaner (it sheds water faster too!) It may be completely mad but it has worked for a couple months!

I have had issues cleaning my tub as well which is a plastic material, I can't replace the tub because I am renter. My husband is a mechanic and brings in so much grease and grim so. So what I tried was mr. clean magic erasers they worked but it took so many to do the job they were to time cosuming and costly, so I tried lime a way no sucess, crl helped some but wasnt quite doing the job, recently i found spray power made by crown it works great and costs about 3 dollars at my local walmart. I do recommend when using to buy a good scrubbing sponge and use hot water to loosen gunk and rise with ofter use.
