Y’all may already know this??? I have noticed where we place our feet in the center of out HT, it had gotten a little stained. Today I got a magic eraser and erased all of the stain. I go barefoot a lot so I carry a little grime in the soles of my feet. Since my shell is “white” my grime shows. Magic eraser worked like a charm. FYI

We always rinse our feet before getting in. This helps quite a bit! I learned this with my little pools & the kiddos and our whole family just does it out of habit now. With those I had a dishpan type container I would fill with pool water each time we used the pool & dump it after.
For the spa I just use my scum bug sponge thingy to squeeze water over my feet as I am standing on the clean step one foot at a time right before each one goes over the edge.

For anyone who doesn't know, the TFP wiki is located at the bottom of any forum page in the quick navigation section.
There are oodles of topics there and everyone should scroll through occasionally to chip away at anything relevant to them. It's a bit much at first, but as new/casual members learn, the deep dives will make more sense.

Be aware that a magic eraser will dull an acrylic clearcoat. Really only noticeable in reflection, but there none-the-less. Try a plain old sponge or paper towel first. It may take a bit more elbow grease to get it clean, but can save a bunch in buffing.
I wouldn't worry in the footwell, and it will be mostly unnoticeable below water level, but on the shoulder in the sunlight the customer will complain.

Microfiber rags for the win here- they help scrub but don’t scratch & they grab & hold instead of pushing stuff around. They also don’t deteriorate in water.
