How do you remove stains in the toilet?

Question

The stains are just around the hole where the water leaves.I tried clr and many other cleaners and nothing has worked.

Answer 1

I use bleach and a scrub brush

Answer 2

There is a special cleaner that you can use to remove rust stains from inside the bowl. You can't buy it at the market tho. Stubborn stains like that will never go away with regular household cleaners. Go to your local hardware or building supply store and ask them for a professional grade rust remover for your toilet. It is usually about $20 for a small bottle but does wonders. You just pour it in the water, wait 5 minutes, scrub, and flush. Presto! Good luck!

The first thing to do is to empty the bowl of most of its water using one of three methods:

Take a bucket of water and pour it rapidly into your bowl — this drives most of the water down by sort of a manual flush — enabling you to work directly on the stains.

Another method — the most convenient — is to take a bowl brush and ram the water in a controlled way down the toilet trap ten or fifteen times until all the water's out except a little pool at the bottom.

A third way you can do it is to take a plunger and plunge the water down the trap.

In each case, your objective is the same: emptying the bowl so you can work. Then sprinkle the inside of your bowl liberally with cleanser and give it first a general cleaning using a bowl brush.

Rinse the bowl by taking water from that little pool at the bottom. Then take your pumice stick and work directly on the deposits. The pumice stone is a great tool because it is softer than the porcelain but harder than the deposits — it won't scratch the bowl; but wet it before using it to be safe and to make it easier to use. Work until all the rings and stains are gone.

Answer 4

likely its old and just so set onto the surface that its impossible, try turning off the water to the tank, flush, then while its empty pour clr in it till it stands around the stain, then scrub and let sit a while, and scrub some more. turn the water back on to the tank, and when full flush again and see if it has improved.

Answer 5

Haha...I know this might sound rather weird, but it works for me at least. Try pouring in a soft drink (i don't want to mention any names here), preferably a cola into your toilet bowl and leave it there for about a hour or so...You'll be surprised of the results it can create, your toilet bowl will be shockingly clean!!!...You should give that a try, all this while i never know cleaning a toilet only cost me the same amount as buying a soft drink :D.

Answer 6

There is this pots and pans screen scrubber, it is black and about 3x3 square, it is in the isle where you get cleaners and soaps,I think you will get 3 or 4 of them in one pack, the pack is yellow, you will need gloves then elbow grease but very little.you can drain some water out but not much. Good luck.
