    Don't use vinegar and bicarb at the same time - they start to neutralise each other so it's just a waste. Use vinegar first to dissolve the limescale, then bicarb afterwards if you need something abrasive to scrub with.

    I prefer citric acid to vinegar - doesn't smell, slightly stronger and works out cheaper as it comes as powder that you dissolve so you're not paying to have water transported around. Barkeeper's Friend works wonders on very stubborn marks, if you need something with more oomph.
