26 Sep Cleaning Queen Tip #1: Cleaning Toilet Rings without Chemicals
This post is dedicated to our mother, the cleaning queen. As long as we can remember, our Mom has always had some crazy cleaning tips that work like magic! To this day, we still bring over our laundry to have her get a spot out or ask her for tips on those hard to clean items. She always has a recommendation that works 99% of the time. We thought it would be nice to share some of her genius cleaning tips periodically. Thanks Mom for all you have done for us over the years!
Today’s’ Tip:
Cleaning Hard Water Toilet Rings without Chemicals!
When we first moved into our new house, we had toilet rings in ALL of the toilets. The house was on the market for 2 years and completely empty, so no one took care of cleaning and flushing the toilets. With the hard rural water we have, we ended up with really bad toilet rings in all the toilets.
After multiple types of chemicals and scrubbing to no end, I still could not get remove the hard water ring. I was complaining to my Mom about it one day, and she suggested a pumice stone.You can use an old one you have had around the house (don’t use it on your feet after the toilet) or go buy a new one from Walmart for $0.80.
Just don your rubber gloves and lightly rub on the ring with the pumice stone. Don’t rub too hard, because you could scratch your toilet. It’s amazing and the ring will vanish before you eyes!
