Toilets require frequent cleaning for sanitary reasons. The accumulated debris particles produce unpleasant spots, while the minerals contained in the water produce a large accumulation of calcium in the toilet bowl. The longer stains remain, the more difficult it will be to eliminate them. The dirty cup encourages germs and other contaminants which creates an unhealthy environment. Some cleaning agents are effective in treating heavily soiled toilet bowls.
Instructions
- Rub the toilet bowl with a brush to remove accumulated dirt. Loosen stubborn stains as much as possible with the brush.
- Moisten a paper towel with distilled white vinegar. Leave the paper towel directly on the difficult spots.
- Pour a quart (946 ml) of white vinegar into the water in the toilet bowl. Keep the wet paper towel and the vinegar in the cup overnight.
- Remove the paper towel from the toilet bowl. Rub the spots vigorously with the brush. Download the toilet.
- Inspect the toilet bowl for any stains that have remained. If necessary, apply a commercial cleaner based on acid. Wear gloves and safety glasses to protect yourself against chemicals.
- Rub the toilet bowl with the brush until all stains have disappeared. Unload the toilet when you have finished cleaning it.
