Team Baking Soda here.

What does a man use to clean stainless steel? 

tl;dr -- powder bar keepers friend + little bit of water for deep(er) cleans or typically clean while it's hot with water then scrub with green side of a sponge

For workout stink stuck in clothes or that comes back quickly when you put clothes back on, a sports detergent is also good to use - typically they are enzymatic and have stuff that helps break down the proteins and sweat and gunk that is getting embedded in the fabric and not coming off with soap. Whole Foods actually has a decent house brand.

If we're talking dry-fit type stuff that isn't smelling good after washing, put it all in a bag and toss it in the freezer for a couple of days.  Then, rewash.  It has worked for my sons' athletic gear.

best stain remover for the listed items hands down. None is better. Just sprayed dried blood stain on a tennis skirt of mine and the stain vanished with no effort or friction just gone. I’ve been using it for years, thought I’d drop you brothers a tip in the mad max of cleaning dominance thread. If this won’t get you a blow job, god help you nothing will.

*note it says carpet cleaner but I’ve used it on clothes and upholstery for more than a decade.

Oh for sure, find it next to the rugs at Lowes or Home Depot. I also have a Lowes bucket that I use to soak clothes in oxiclean and hot water. And people swear by zote laundry soap - it’s a bar, you can rub it into the stain or shave some into the load of laundry. Folex and oxiclean are my jams for sure though with two little kids.

Someone educate me on the plastic/fiberglass/whateverthefuck the material is on bathtubs that isn't glass or porcelain.  They cannot be cleaned.

Yes, I watched youtube videos and none of them worked.  What do you people do?  Or are they simply always going to be dirty?

They have those stupid grooves in them so it's not a smooth surface to clean.  Tons of pores.

I would try tossing a full scoop of oxiclean in to a hot tub and letting it sit all day. Then maybe a scrub daddy, and I would try barkeepers friend and clr. Would test a spot with the barkeepers friend though.
