The limescale appears in the bathroom in all places that come into contact with water. Its removal can then be lengthy and complicated – but only if you don’t know a simple trick that will help you put an end to this problem with one wave.
Some of us are lucky that the tap is flowing from the so -called soft water, that is, which contains only a small amount of dissolved minerals such as calcium and magnesium, or their salt. If the water in your village contains more mentioned substances, it is hard, it is formed by a chemical reaction of calcium carbonate, which is the popularity of limescale. The harder the water, the more limescale. But what about him?
Watch the procedure and result in the youtub video from Fix and Stuff:
Lemon can handle wonders
Take an ordinary lemon to help. You will not need anything else, because it is this natural magician that can handle your problem very easily. The acids it contains can easily cope with calcium is other deposits, distribute their structure and thus facilitate their subsequent removal. In addition, it leaves behind in the bathroom only and only a pleasant and fresh scent.
Taps and batteries
To make your bathroom still as new and you don’t have to worry about unexpected visits (not only) mother -in -law, be sure to spread the lemon tap and batteries. It is on them that limescale is formed very often, especially around discharge and control levers. You do not have to do anything complicated – it will be enough if you simply break the lemon and “lubricate” the affected areas. After a while of lemon juice, you can safely start cleaning. It will be almost alone.
How to shower head?
Like the batteries, shower heads are also at risk. In places with very hard water, they should be cleaned quite often, because in several weeks neglect such maintenance could even clog fine holes and the water would simply stop flowing. If you want to start really thorough cleaning, cut the lemon into thicker slices and place them on the shower head so that it is covered. Then wrap it in food foil and leave the lemon calmly for half an hour or longer, act. Then it will be enough to let go of hot water, rinse the head and you will be done.
Can also protect the glass
No one wants to look at the white dots, or the whole line, stretching on the glass of the shower. Therefore, take it again to your hand already tested helper, rub it with a glass wall, wait a few minutes and rinse the shower. If you want to get rid of the scale for a longer period of time, you can try a trick with shaving foam. When you spread the glass and then polish it, not only will not be so much fogging, but it turns IS with calcium carbonate.
Not to see but harm
It is not so much visible on the tiles and joints, especially if it is light tiles. But in this case, the old familiar saying applies: everything in time. As soon as its layer exceeds some strength, it begins to settle dirt, which is still the better option. It becomes literally hatching microscopic pathogens, which then await us in a humid and warm environment of the bathroom. No one would want to do such a bath.
Ecologically, easily, effectively …
The big advantage of this bathroom lemon bark is its environmental friendliness. It will help as well as the relatively strong chemical agents and you can be sure that you have not hurt animals or even plants. Isn’t that excellent?
