How to clean the bottom of the toilet bowl: a method that will remove the most stubborn stains

Lime scale often forms on the bottom of the toilet bowl. Even regular care can not prevent its appearance, because the composition of hard water contains a lot of calcium and magnesium salts. In addition, yellow stains are formed on the bottom, which sometimes do not help even expensive detergents.

If you do not wash off the plaque at the initial stages, it can turn into thick growths. OBOZREVATEL tells about an effective method that will remove the most persistent stains.

Soda and vinegar are indispensable helpers in cleaning. If used correctly, they will qualitatively remove contaminants from calcium residues and hard water salts that accumulate at the bottom of the toilet bowl.

It is necessary to prepare:

• baking soda;
• white vinegar;
• toilet brush;
• rubber gloves.

For convenience, we publish step-by-step instructions:

Step 1. Drain all the water from the toilet bowl. To do this, shut off the water and flush until all the water is out.

Step 2. Generously sprinkle the bottom of the toilet bowl with baking soda. Leave it for 5-10 minutes to allow the active ingredients to work.

Step 3. It's time to add vinegar. After it reacts with the baking soda, it will begin to fizz - this will help remove even outdated deposits. The mixture should be left on the bottom of the toilet bowl for at least 30 minutes.

Step 4. Take a scrubber to scrub the surfaces. The baking soda and vinegar mixture should soften the stains, so they will be fairly easy to remove.

Step 5. Turn on the water and rinse off the remaining product. If any stains remain, you can repeat the process again.

By the way, citric acid will also help to clean the toilet bowl. 200 g of acid should be poured inside the toilet bowl and another 100 g - in the drain tank, which also contains a lot of lime deposits. Read more about how the acid will help to get rid of plaque - read in the material.
