If you apply the loo brush to pump at the lesser of the loo you can empty most of the h2o out, and then the product yous utilize won't get then diluted. I had quite skilful results doing that and then spraying with Viakal and leaving information technology for a few hours.

i am non joking, it was that bad,the system was bad to there was all sorts of green mold growing in information technology! simply so was my whole business firm, i was significant when i moved in and vued it when the other people wear still living hear, i just thought the messy house was down to them beingness redy to move, once i got hear to an empty house i cryed the place was a wreck!
it was suposedly newly decorated b4 i came, lovely green wall paper (non) stuck on with blu tack in some places!
i have had re decorate the whole house in the past viii mounths , and had houseing out more times than i rember to set up things like plugs haning off wall and a leak in the roof! and to pick up last peoples domestic dog crap out of garden,
i see the people who used to alive hear every day in the playground, information technology kills me not to say something nasty to her!

White vinegar? Works on our sink, etc. If the place you need to put it on is on a slope, sort of drench jay cloths in information technology and lay them on the area. Leave for a few hours and wash off. It might not get it all outset time only I bet it would improve it.

OMG icecream . i am impressed yous have not said anything to them. i don't know how i'd command myself; sounds disgusting.
MissyBabee Thu 26-October-06 13:59:52
thanks f&z. it's the rim at the back really. definitely needs to be wadded with cloths i recall. i'thousand actually getting quite excited at the prospect of resolving this!!

oh missybabee, the adult female knows not to await my way, perhaps she feels inbarrised (i hope she dose)
the garden has lovely decking that was put in b4 them and at that place dogs, and only half was ever staind looked a right mess, but i take painted information technology all added wind chimes and flowers insted of dog poo and cleaved glass, and my nabouers said how diffrent the place looks and how much nicer the expanse feels now,

I moved into a new house in July and already the limescale is building up. I put harpic 100% limescale downwards there every other day, to no avail. All I can think of doing now is pouring bleach onto information technology so at least it volition expect white.
Might try to remember to purchase that Kaboom stuff adjacent time I'thou in Wilko.

with harpic, you need to get out it, scrub it, affluent, use again and scrub again.
Information technology DOES work - honestly - i never though Anything would shift our limescale problem!
