The Key Is Finding A Good Toilet Bowl Cleaner

By:


Do you ever spend time trying to figure out just what you should be looking for in a toilet bowl cleaner? Well, here are a few things to consider checking off on that list.

Aim for a product thats got guts, like a thick foam concoction, and is going to tough it out. Youll also want to make sure that the product is easy to maneuver in those hard-to-reach spots, such as under the rim. Make sure it will reach there without a problem.

Demand more from your cleaner, like help with the tough jobs of wiping out stains and mineral deposits due to hard water. Choose something with a nice, fresh scent that wont drive you running from the room. Phosphate free works too.

Go for versatility, something that you can take with you for jobs in the bathroom and the kitchen. Were talking all kinds of things like sinks, toilets and showers. And make sure that its safe to use in different concentrations, full strength or in a diluted format. Why not go for recyclable packaging?

Check before using on more delicate materials, such as Fiberglass or aluminum. Its safer to avoid painted surfaces and countertops.

When it comes to the dos and donts of tasks that require your multipurpose toilet bowl cleaner, there are a couple of useful tips that can zap certain cleaning nightmares right out of your world.

On the job: do wear gloves; dont let the product sit before getting to work. Do move your brush around in circles, trying to get as deep into the bowl as possible.

Dont just clean. Do rinse the bowl thoroughly using cool water in a dedicated container.

Dont mix such products with other cleaners, especially not bleach! You can find yourself breathing in really toxic fumes. Do open a window or think about taking a break for a bit of fresh air between tasks.

Do make sure youve put the lid securely on the product-in the original container-after use. Do store such products in a safe place, where no curious little fingers have access, though many come with a child-resistant cap. Do rinse out the container or bucket youve used and perhaps leave it with the product for use next time.

Long-term: do try and keep to a weekly cleaning schedule. Youll feel better and so will the sinks and bowls. Also, youll avoid stains and streaks that are really tough to remove.

Do consider diluting the concentration of products when using them more frequently. Itll save you money and its more environmentally friendly.

Dont put off cleaning and deodorizing one of your bathrooms most important residents. It will definitely put up a stink in protest. Its awful, but true.

So the next time youre in doubt about what you need for the job, make a wish list of what you want in a toilet bowl cleaner and check it against the label in the store. That way, youll get exactly what you bargained for. Happy cleaning!
