Presumably limescale build up stains? DO NOT use an abrasive product of the ilk that - "sparkling white in 5 seconds". They take the protective glaze off and the ceramic underneath will get stained much quicker and will always look dirty. I know this through experience....


Agree with Shaynes mrs. Use a de-scaler which will dissolve the limescale - but be prepared for multiple applications. Or drench a cloth in de-scaler and leave to soak.

Cillit Bang Lime and shine. Squirt it on and the stain will literally disappear in front of your eyes. Shines up chrome with very little too. Couldn’t believe it when I did ours.

For anything major ‘Kilrock’ is good strong stuff.

Well i had a go with the vinegar & baking powder, top tip here, DON'T get it in a cut, it burns boy does it burn, anyway got rid of some of the stain, Cillit bang got rid of the rest.
