Could someone tell me what will clean my bath, as my daughter dyed her hair black and now it won't come out. I've tried vinegar and baking powder, bleach, and other cleaning products. I would be most grateful if you could help me. Regards.

Try soft scrub with bleach and a white eraser together, that should get it out.
Did you try The Works toilet bowl cleaner? It removes hair dye splashes from paint. They also make a tub cleaner. I get mine at the dollar store but they also sell it at grocery stores, Walmart, Target, etc. Good luck.
Have you tried Greased Lightning? Is is sold in grocery stores in the household cleaning section. Another idea is to run a small amount of water in the tub and drop in about two denture cleaning tablets.
I had the same problem. After trying several different things, I bought some Lysol 4 in 1 spray cleaner. It worked!
Where fabric dyes are sold, they also sell dye out products. I would test a small hidden area first so not to mess up tub finish. :)
Toothpaste helped
Nope. I dont believe some of what is said here. If you color your hair AND EYEBROWS at home, eventually, if you color them every month for a couple of years, you will wind up staining the walls, floor, tile, sink, counter, and tub: and a lot of the stains are permanent! You will have to eventually buy a new tub, sink, floor, and walls. Then, youll have to stop doing it at home.
Yes this does work, I do it all the time, or toilet bowl cleaner with bleach is even better. Sometime you have to leave a soaked wash cloth on the stain for awhile but it works miracles.
Does it take away from the color of the tub using lisol 4/1 cleaner
Toothpaste is not working on it
Dyeing your hair at home can result in stains in your tub or sink, especially if it is older and has cracks in the finish. This is a page about preventing hair dye stains in a bathtub.
