Tips & Warnings

• Almost any type of cola will work.

• Make sure that the soda isn't flat. The fizzing action helps facilitate the cleaning process.

• Avoid using red or orange sodas, as this may discolor instead of clean your toilet bowl.

• You can't clean stained or really soiled toilets with a can of Coke. Bring out the big guns for that job: invest in some toilet cleaner.
