    If the ring is substantial then use a pumice stone to get rid of the ring. The pumice will not scratch porcelain and will wear away as it takes off the crud!

    I struggled with this for a year, trying all kinds of things. I bought a Bath Stone from Bed Bath & Beyond for $3.99. It works like a charm with very little effort

    Yes I agree either pumice or maybe even CLR which you can buy in any hardware store.

    try vinegar, it works in the coffee pot and will work in the commode as well.

    Pour in some white vinegar, swab it around & let it sit for a half hour or so then brush it out. If it's bad you may have to repeat for the first time using it. You could also add a little baking soda.

    Here in the Texas panhandle our water is really hard. The easiest thing I have found is Lime away. The trick however is not to let it soak, but to turn off the water in the toilet, flush, and apply the full strength lime away to the water deposits, and immediately scrub. If the deposits are really dense, you might have to use a wire brush. When finished, turn the water back on, and you're done.

    Muradic acid. You must ventilate though. It is powerful stuff.
