S.h. on Dec 01, 2015I have tried using a sponge and keep dabbing vinegar on the calcium. I try it for about five minutes then again the next day etc., it gradually makes the deposits smaller. I will try CLRHelpful Reply

Patty on Dec 02, 2015I used Grease Lightening with a super spong. Sponge on the GL and lets it set for approx. 5 minutes, use sponge to scrip it off. For the tube, I used a Q-tip with vinegar to clean the tube out. After cleaning be sure to rinse well and run some about 2 quarts of water through th dispenser to clear the vinegar out of the tube. Good luck!!Helpful Reply

512181 on Dec 02, 2015If some of the above fail…buy spray paint for plastic. I did this on my mom's fridge and it worked. I did tape everything off carefully, and had a drop cloth on the floor. I did several thin coats so the paint would not run. I tried many suggestions like the ones above and could not get it all clean.Helpful Reply

Duv310660 on Dec 03, 2015Barkeeper's Friend. Very inexpensive, I like the canned powder - you can make a paste and let it sit. We have some of the hardest water in No. America and it is great on many surfaces, many stains.Helpful Reply

Callie Wyrick-West on Jan 10, 2016Soak paper towels (the more on the towels the better) in white vinegar and put/wrap them on the problem area. Leave on the area for 20-30 minutes (longer may be needed). You may need to spray the paper towels with vinegar from a spray bottle in order to keep them from drying out. Wipe up the area with the vinegar soaked towels- the stains should be gone- if not- then repeat the process and leave on longer.Helpful Reply
