Is the sliding cabinet door beside the toilet? ... Any men using the facilities?

Now that you have it nicely cleaned, there are a few things you can do:

Coat the cleaned item with a heavy coat of furniture wax or clear spray lacquer before re-installing.

Encourage/impose the: "Gentlemen, please be seated" policy among the males using the facilities.

Post the, "We aim to please. You aim too, please!" sign

Or, if you have a bunch of Star Wars fans among the lads:

Trust me, none of this will automatically revoke their "Man Cards," but will reduce the cleaning effort immensely!

Alternatively, assign them to do the cleaning...
