DIY Toilet Limescale Remover: Powerful Solution with Salt and Vinegar

Limescale buildup in the toilet can be difficult to tackle, but with this simple DIY solution, you can break down even the toughest deposits—better than a hammer! Using a combination of salt and vinegar, this method is both cost-effective and highly effective. Here’s how to make and use this powerful mixture.

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon of table salt
• 300 ml of 12% white vinegar (the cheapest one works perfectly)

Instructions:

1. Pour Salt Directly into the Toilet Bowl:

• Start by sprinkling 1 tablespoon of table salt directly into the toilet bowl, focusing on the areas with the most limescale buildup. Salt works as a mild abrasive to help loosen the deposits.

2. Add Vinegar:

• Pour 300 ml of 12% white vinegar into the toilet bowl. The vinegar’s acetic acid will react with the limescale (calcium carbonate), breaking it down and making it easier to remove.

3. Mix the Ingredients:

• Use a toilet brush to mix the salt and vinegar thoroughly. Scrub the sides of the toilet bowl with the brush, spreading the mixture over all areas affected by limescale. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to an hour to allow the mixture to work on breaking down the deposits.

4. Optional: Repeat if Necessary:
