SOS Pad Stained Toilet

RE: SOS Pad Stained Toilet Post By William (Guest Post) (05/29/2008) This works - as long as you didn't scratch the porcelain ( I know it looks like YOU DID) - I was so worried - but THE WORKS (it's a frothy cleaner tub and shower cleaner) took it out so easily. It looks like it was scratched but this cleaner removed it!

I sprayed some Grease Lighting cleaner, let it soak for about 3-5 minutes, then I scubbed really hard with a Mr. clean magic eraser and then I cleaned with w/dawn soap to make it shine.

I moved into a house with a toilet so dirty I assumed I would never be able to clean it properly. I put in two cups of Spirits of Salts, let it sit for two hours, flushed and scrubbed out with toilet cleaner. The toilet is as new, without any damage. Make sure to ventilate VERY WELL.

I believe that's what she was trying to get rid of. I was very worried because our place is a rental and I do not want to have to pay for a new toilet when we move! Also, I did try ajax, lysol toilet bowl cleaner, bleach, mold/mildew remover and none of it worked, until I used the vinegar.

Made a few little marks. I then had some vinegar so I just poured it in there and let it soak, occasionally using the toilet brush and a sponge to wipe the areas. It worked!! It was actual stains because the longer it soaked, the dark particles left behind by the steel wool were at the bottom of the toilet. Thank you everyone! Oh, and FYI, no, I am not asking her to come back to clean! It was her 2nd time cleaning here. Who uses an SOS pad to clean a toilet??!

What was she trying to clean in your toilet that she had used SOS?

Maybe she can figure out how to get rid of the stains but it may be that it is scratched rather than stained. I'd be very mad. I never heard of using an SOS pad to clean a toilet.

It may just rub out. Susan from ThriftyFun Report Spam or Abuse RE: SOS Pad Stained Toilet Post By Janet (Guest Post) (06/18/2007) You may have to live with grey stains or replace the toilet. The SOS pad may have scratched the finish beyond repair. We had a tub that the previous owners used abrasive cleaners on. The glaze was damaged. We painted it with Klenk's Tub paint. (Tons of preparation work involved there... I have dreams of sanding that tub.) That worked for about two years, until the paint was chipped by a sharp, heavy object. I'm not sure if Klenk's would work in a toilet, however, exposed to water continuously. You can also get tubs professionally resurfaced. It probably wouldn't pay to resurface a toilet (I don't think they're that pricey) unless it is a particularly amazing toilet!

They said to use straight vinegar. Well needless to say, over time the potty chair stunk of urine even with regular cleaning. I filled up the chair enough to cover the bottom of base with vinegar and the rest hot water. Let it set over night and urine stains and smell of urine gone. I tried that on the big toilet then again the urine around the toilet (from my 3 yr. boy) got rid of the smell and stains. The vinegar smell is not nice but it does do the job. Maybe this might help all you can do is try. Have a good one. Report Spam or Abuse RE: SOS Pad Stained Toilet Post By ShellyE (Guest Post) (06/18/2007) You might try a pumice stone for toilets. Wal*Mart sells them for less than $2.00. Good luck!
