Pour white vinegar in and follow with baking soda then use a pumice stone.
Try putting the vinegar and baking soda in with out taking some water out first. I did mine the other day and it worked perfectly.Leave the mixture in for about 30 minutes. If the deposits do not come off right away repeat the process with emptying some of the water. Next the pumice stone is used to eliminate the hard water rings as well.
Lime Away
Muratic acid, follow the instructions.

Ooooh, I forgot to mention ZEP. It is amazing and, while I have gotten away from using harsh chemicals, there are two that I keep on hand for tough jobs. ZEP is one (can be found at Walmart or any home improvement store) and Krud Kutter.
I use these if I am cleaning someone's house who has never cleaned properly. If you use these on your own home, once your trouble spots are clean, you may not have to use them again if you follow a cleaning routine to keep them from becoming trouble spots again.

Stubborn hard water stains in toilet
I have same problem , it always builds up in the s curve and you can't get in there , also wondering , doesn't the harsh chemicals take the pocelum finish off some , the baking sofa and vinegar does not touch the build up in my toilet , the buildup is in the holes at the bottom
CLR is a cleaner specifically for hard water and lime deposits. Can be found at most grocery stores.
.THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUGGESTION.
I WILL TRY IT OUT
Also you can take the reservoir tank off and bring it outside to hose out. Sometimes there is a buildup in there and cleaning the bowl won't work for very long.
Lime-Away! You can get it at Dollar Tree for $1 or any dollar store. It's amazing! Pour it in the bowl, let it sit for a couple of hours and then scrub away all the build up! If it's really bad you may have to do it a couple of times but it will come off!
CLR, but leave it in the bowl overnight. The 1st time I tried it, I didn't leave it in long enough.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADDED COMMENT.

The best way I've found to clean the toilet bowl ring that's built up mineral deposits is to turn the water off to the toilet and flush, then soak strips of paper towel in a product called C-L-R (calcium, lime-rust). It is a clear liquid substance that pours like water. Place the paper-towel soaked strips onto the crusty build up in the toilet bowl and also underneath the trim of the bowl where the water flows in. Let sit for as long as possible...maybe even until its dried out completely. Remove and dispose of the paper towel into the trash, turn the water back on to the toilet and flush. Scrub the bowl with a toilet brush and flush again. The ring of hard water deposit will be gone and will feel smooth to the touch. This is the ONLY product I've used that has gotten rid of the roughness of the water ring. Total "work" time is less than 10 minutes...just a lot of soaking time which can be overnight if you like.
