Stains above the water line in toilet!

RE: Stains above the water line in toilet! Post By Mark (Guest Post) (02/02/2005) TRR has stained my ceramic tile. How can I get the stains Off the tile? RE: Stains above the water line in toilet! Post By Melissa (Guest Post) (05/08/2004) I have the perfect solution to your problem and it works great. The next time you visit Wal*Mart, purchase a bottle of T.R.R. (Toliet Ring Remover). This stuff works great. I use it like once every 3 months. It comes with a Sponge like toliet brush. Just make sure you wear gloves for this because it is a strong chemical. Let me know how it works out. RE: Stains above the water line in toilet! Post By Tawnda (Guest Post) (05/07/2004) Replace the colored toilet tabs with the bleach tabs. We have very heavy minerals in our water that leave stains and this works well to minimize the stains left. RE: Stains above the water line in toilet! Post by Jo Bodey (302) | (05/01/2004) Contact I've never used pumice for these mineral stains but a simple cheap way is to don a glove and rub the stains with 'wet and dry' sandpaper - that's the very fine black one available in hardware stores. You don't have to remove the water and with a very moderate amount of rubbing will remove these deposits without damaging the ceramic surface. I have a feeling bleach will remove the colour but the deposits will remain and stain again quickly - I may be wrong. I 'renovated' a toilet I was thinking of replacing using 'wet and dry' sandpaper - it was the old one in a house I bought which came up like new and was able to be 'recycled' to the new bathroom. RE: Stains above the water line in toilet! Post By j walker (Guest Post) (04/20/2004) Turn the water off to your toilet. (valve behind your toliet on the wall.) Spray the entire inside of the empty toilet with undiluted white vinegar or C.L.R. Let stand 1 hour. Srub well with a stiff toilet brush. You may need to repeat again. When stain is gone, Slowly pour 1 gal. cold water into the toilet bowl to rinse and turn on the toilet again. While you have the toilet empty, take a toothpick and clean out the flow holes under the rim. This will give a longer life to the fixture. Good Luck!!! RE: Stains above the water line in toilet! Post by tigerlil234 (6) | (04/20/2004) Contact I have the same problem when I put the blue "cleaning" tabs in my toilet,I only use them because our water has a brown residue so I have to use a pumice stone on them to remove both stains.it works ok with a lot of elbow grease but sometimes I stop the toilet up with a dirty dishtowel,shoving it in tight enough to hold water and pour pure clorox bleach in, filling your toilet to the rim on top,letting it set for 30 minutes to an hour, then remove the dish towel and wash with a toilet brush.it comes sparkling clean.(we also have very hard water so the pumice removes the ring that's always there.) make sure the kiddies nor the hubby doesn't have access to the toilet or they'll flush the dishtowel...
