I have moved house recently and the toilet was a little bit stained so I tried one of the tips I was given and poured coke down it. Result - One very stained toilet. I Tried vinegar next and it didn't help.
What else can I do?
Please can someone help me. Thanks

I've been told that putting some denture tablets down the loo overnight is supposed to help. Haven't tried that one myself though!0

for me the only thing that worked was Harpic 100% limescale remover. It took a few nights and about 3 bottles, but now I have a loo like new.0

Yep I too swear by Harpic limescale remover. It's the only stuff I use in my loo. Bleach just covers the limescale!0

TESCO TOILET LIMESCALE REMOVER - works every time. I know its a chemical but it saves loads of time and energy so well worth the 79p. There have been lots of other threads about this(I don't know how to add the links - sorry) - you could try pumice stone etc but I like the Tesco stuff. Clear out all water from bowl, squirt in loads and leave overnight. EASY.:rotfl: :rotfl:
Quite keen moneysaver......0 -
bleach is good if you leave it overnight0

i tried the pumich stone, ok it needs a bit of elbow grease but worked a treat. but once u have the loo clean i found it important to use a limescale cleaner a couple times a week to prevent it getting bad again.0

Morrison's works really well too, and it's 10p cheaper!0 -
Yep, pumice for me too - took me about half an hour once I'd got the water out using a sponge. Very satisfying to do actually, and you'll have a lovely clean loo for pennies.:cool: DFW Nerd Club member 023...DFD 9.2.2007 :cool::heartpuls married 21 6 08 :A Angel babies' birth dates 3.10.08 * 4.3.11 * 11.11.11 * 17.3.12 * 2.7.12 :heart2: My live baby's birth date 22 7 09 :heart2: I'm due another baby at the end of July 2014! :j
