Comments on How to Clean a Toilet

We lived in a railroad town during the steam engine era. My mother used Crisco to remove the soot from my father's white shirts. She then washed them in hot, soapy water. Voil, the soot was gone. I think my mother was one smart cookie.

For heavy cleaning, pour a can of Coke into the bowl and let it sit for a while. It will eat away the stains and you can scrub anything remaining. Hmmm ... we drink this stuff?

If you have a septic tank, you might want to consult a plumber prior to following some of the advice given. Certain chemicals do not interact well with a properly functioning septic system and may kill off the bacteria needed to break down waste.

If your toilet is porcelain the Pumie will get rid of any hard water rings or rust. It's so easy it shocked me. Also works on grills, concrete & enamel- THIS IS THE ONLY TOOL I WILL USE FOR MY OVEN CLEANING besides a little baking soda. No more noxious fumes,
