dang ring in the toilet!!! Help!

No matter how often I clean our toilets we still get this faint ring in the toilet that will NOT go away. We use the the scrubbing bubbles toilet gels in between cleanings. Ideas please? 

Re: dang ring in the toilet!!! Help!

  • Scrub it with pumice stone. That's the only thing that gets it off.
  • just keep the lid down! the only ring in a toilet that would get me to put my hands in there would have to be a diamond!
  • If you haven't already, try some CLR. 

  • You can also rub lightly with fine grit sandpaper (make sure it's wet) if you don't like the pumice stone. The sandpaper is a bit more flexible.

  • we have bad iron bacteria water, and the stamp in scrubbing bubbles thingy just gets coated with the bacteria and therefore doesnt works at all. i just use one of these:

    its from scotch brite i think, and really works, it has pumice and bleach in it. i try to do this pretty often, if i let it go a while its a bit harder to get off. i love that the heads are disposable, you dont even have to touch the head to get it off the handle into the garbage, theres a little lever thing on the handle that pops it off. just the clean dry handle to store, no icky brushes.

  • Our water is like liquid iron and we use products by The Works.

    This or Lime Away.  I just dump a bit in and leave it. You can then use your brush to clean or just flush depending on severity of stain.  It's amazing how easy it is with this stuff, I too tried everything else minus scrubing with my hand in the toilet.

  • We had this really badly in our second bath (doesn't get used as much, since neither of our boys are potty trained yet), so once I got rid of it, I put a bleach drop in tab in the tank, and so far, so good!
