How do I clean the toilet?

Hello.

It is likely hard water mineral deposits.

I have tried many of the internet toilet cleaning tips and tricks to include cola and koolaid and they have failed.

My solution was the pumice stick. This is excellent way to remove stains and rings in the toilet. When commercial toilet cleaners fail -this is my go to. Great for thick crusted calcium mineral build up that the toilet waterbowl collects.

They are found at my local Walmart for less than two dollars -good for multiple uses.

Be sure to follow the use instructions, soaking the pumice stone in water for a few minutes. While the stone is soaking, grab your toilet brush and splash water up around the ring. Note: It’s very important to keep both the stone and the surface wet while cleaning to avoid scratching your porcelain.

you might also try the effervescent denture tablets.. …. google this … but I would not use hot water in the toilet because you could crack the bowl

Flush the toilet and then pour a quarter cup of Borax into it. Use your toilet brush to swish it around. Next, add one to two cups of vinegar and let the mixture sit for 30 minutes. You should be able to scrub the stains away!
