Toilet Scratched By a Plumber's Snake |
|
|
We recently had to "snake" the bathroom toilet, leaving scratch marks - got most off with comet, but does anyone have suggestions for the tougher scratch marks?

Brilliant advice re Pumice. It was scary to use, but it absolutely worked in removing scratches to the porcelain toilet. Wow! Thank you!

Rust Stain Magic for toilets, sinks,clothing will ALSO
remove METAL SCRATCHES miraculously from porcelain and sinks. Spray it on, wait 5 full minutes or so, rub it off, and rinse/dry. Try it. I just KNOW it will work for you unless whatever you might have already done coated the metal stains? Good luck and God bless you. : )

I'm assuming (I know that is dangerous) that the "snake" has left a gray metallic deposit on the hard glaze. Acidic cleaner will remove the metal by reduction. Metal salts are more soluable in water than the metal residue.

I am looking for ideas for cleaning or repairing scratch marks left behind after snaking the toilet.

You could look in the yellow pages under bathtubs. There will be bathtub and sink repairs listed. It may be possible someone listed could repair the toilet. You would have to call and also get a price quote. (08/18/2006)

You might try turning off the water, flushing the toilet and then using Mr. Clean Magic Eraser on the marks. If that doesn't work I'd try gently using a pumice stone. Good luck. (08/19/2006)

The pumice stone will work fine getting the scratches off. May take a little elbow grease. Clorox Duel action toilet bowl cleaner is excellent. I let that soak the sides and then scrub with a non scratchy sponge after 15 minutes. That takes off even well water stains which are tough. You don't need to hire anyone else, it just looks scary. Pumice will not hurt the surface, although it seems like it would. (08/20/2006)
