Not relevant to the topic, but H2O2, hydrogen peroxide, takes blood out of most fabrics. No stain or residue. Most women know that. We used gallons of it in the ER where I worked for over 20 years. It is wonderful at removing so many stains etc and isn’t expensive nor as environmentally nasty as commercial toilet cleaners. Haven’t used them in ages! Great stuff.

I had some old "outdated" hydrogen peroxide under the bathroom sink. Not needing it anymore I dumped half the bottle down the toilet with the intention of getting rid of it. Well, the next day some nasty hardened sub water-line stains in the toilet that I had tried many times unsuccessfully to remove had simply disappeared.

I was just about to look up what to do about that but while I was checking for solutions to a different problem, I found your video! Thanks now I can fix both problems in my bathroom

GREAT tip, that ring around my toilet bowl was so bad when I moved in, I had to use a scraper to get those lime and calcium deposits out, now I KNOW what to do, THANKS! 👍

I love the straight, short to the point vids! That's what I'm trying to do (when I can).

I use it also in my bathroom sinks down the drain, leave about 1 minute and then open the faucet I can hear bubbles fissiles 2:46 before inlet the water run and it helps keep buildup since we really can’t wash or scrub down there. It works great

I love the stuff!! I use it to clean my floors, certain jewelry, stains, etc. Works great, in my toilet bowls, as well! Great video!

My dentist advise me not to buy expensive bottles of mouthwash (to much alcohol) use water and couple of drops of hydrogen peroxide (never swallow), mix according to your liking because you might swallow a little on your throat and you will not like it at all. You can also use denture cleaner on your toilet bowl. Have a clean suave day EVERYONE. Thanks for all the tips and sharing.

In the word's of Foghorn Leghorn...watch it fizzzzzzz. It's a good tip, the blue stuff is mostly chlorine which is not good for the parts in your tank. If you live in the city most tap water has more chlorine in it than your pool.... I've tested it ....

Peroxide is already pretty watered down from the bottle, so if you really want this to work the only way is to be sure it contacts the slimy, grimy, stained surfaces at full strength. That means draining all the water.

Vinegar. Not a cleaning one, but a cooking one. Vinegar works well on hard water. Once every five years or so, you have to undo the water connection and fill the hose with vinegar. A plastic bag and gravity works. Cycle the ice maker to run the vinegar through. I find that this quiets noisy icemakers. Mine started sounding like a parrot. A valve gets hard water buildup.

What a great idea to turn the peroxide bottle into a spray bottle. Also, I didn't know that peroxide is a good stain removal on fabric. I am definitely going to try it on stubborn stains.

If the toilet tank is brown that could be iron bacteria, and you’d need to get a professional to get your water system cleaned and filtered. There’s options including bleach, ozone or hydrogen peroxide. I’d avoid the bleach option, as ozone and hydrogen peroxide are much healthier. Hydrogen peroxide even kills mold, whereas bleach can actually cause more problems with mold. And bleach is toxic to people.

Flush n Sparkle is the best to keep bowl clean. It puts the chlorine in the bowl only. So it does not deteriorate anything in the tank. Keeps my bowl clean... you can buy 1 inch chlorine tablets to replace them, rather than a new cartridge.

just like vinegar it has a low pH between 6 to 4, acidic, would it cause the same issues as the vinegar?

Good to know 😊

I love the drop-in sanitation products because it keeps me in work replacing the rubber seals destroyed by chlorine. Chlorine cuts the life of the toilet tank seals and refill mechanism from a decade or two down to maybe two or three years if you're lucky. I appreciate you don't want your kids eating a toilet cake, but honestly, there are better solutions to bathroom hygiene! Hydrogen peroxide, which is heavily diluted in the form shown, is a solution I personally use, although I typically turn off the water to the tank, drain and then douse liberally with the peroxide. As for the bowl, this should be cleaned regularly, including the spaces around the toilet if you have a man in the house!

Spray that bowl top-off hose too. Clorox kitchen and bath spray is also a great solution for this.
