Cleaning!!

I love sno bol and have used it to clean iron exposed sinks and tubs, but you have to have a well ventilated room because it is a very strong acid, and not good to breathe. Except for one time (described below) it was always great in the toilet as well. I have a house in MI that I have never been able to sell, so it only gets used in the summer. The toilet rings are pretty bad when we arrive. One year daughter tried about 6 times to get the hard water ring out of the toilet. Everything else was gone by the second cleaning, but the ring remained. I put CLR in the bowl and let it sit for at least two hours. Then I just swirled a brush around in it. Voila, the hard water crap was gone. Then I told my daughter that all I had to do was scrub it a little with comet, that it came right out, and that she was a wimp. Not until a few weeks later, when we had to CLR the shower head did I admit to her that I had used CLR on the toilet, LOL

BUT!!!

Here is a simpler, funner and sexier way to keep hard water stains out of your tub. BUBBLE BATHS!!! Years ago I had such a high iron count in my water that Culligan said they could not even begin to handle it. I was using toilet cleaner every time I cleaned the tub, which was getting to my sinuses. Then I decided to use bubble bath because I was sick of looking at the rusty water while I bathed. After the bath - no iron stains. I still had to clean it with toilet cleaner about once a month or so, but the improvement was dramatic. As the tub was emptying, I just quickly rubbed down the inside of the tub with my wash cloth and had a clean tub for weeks at a time. Sharing the bath is even better. Make sure you get ph balanced bubble bath though, because the cheap stuff will tear your skin up after a while.

Smooches,
