How to clean a dirty toilet and make it sparkle

1. How To Clean A Dirty
Toilet And Make It Sparkle

2. What You’re Going To Need.
 Rubber Gloves.
 A cloth or sponge (not the kitchen sponge).
 A toilet brush.
 Antibacterial cleaner.

3. Step 1: The Gentle Rinse.
 Give the exterior (the tank, lid and seat) a good
wipe-down with hot water.
 This will remove excess dirt and make the cleaning
process easier.

4. Step 2: Clean The Bowl.
 Squirt the cleaner around the rim and let it drip down (This will
help soften anything that’s managed to harden within the
bowl).
 Leave the cleaner to settle for a minute and then scrub with a
toilet brush.
 Pay close attention to the water level (where minerals are
prone to settle) and delve deep into the bowl.

5. Step 3: Clean The Outside.
 Close the lid and, with your cleaner, get to work on the
toilet’s exterior.
 Rinse often and wipe in circular motions to avoid streaks.
 Don’t forget: Spray top-down, this is the most hygienic way
as it will prevent any unwanted drips onto clean areas.

6. Step 4: Clean The Toilet Seat.
 Spray your cleaner around the lid and hinges and
give it a good scrub.
 Don’t forget the reverse of your toilet seat
 This can be a haven for stains, particularly when
living with people who have bad aim!

7. Step 5: Back To The Bowl.
 The cleaning fluid you applied in step 2 will have
now settled, so take another look for persistent
stains.
 If you notice any, grab your toilet brush and give it
another scrub.
 Now you can flush. If you notice another stain, just
repeat this step.

8. Step 6: Clean The Handle.
 Don’t be the person who cleans the toilet, but
forgets the handle – No one likes that guy!
 With some disinfectant, give the handle a good
spray and wipe clean.

9. Step 7: Clean Your Toilet Brush
 This is a simple process: Pour some bleach into a
bucket and immerse your brush, ensuring you reach
every bristle.
 Before placing the brush back, give the container a
clean with soapy water.

10. Useful Tips.
 Use a small mirror to spot any hard-to-see stains
under the rim.
 Before your start cleaning, ensure your bathroom is
well ventilated.

11. The Best Natural Toilet
Cleaners.
1. White vinegar: The acidity in vinegar will dissolve
any mineral deposits which will prove particularly
effective for removing limescale.
2. Coca-Cola: Simply pour it around the bowl’s rim
and leave it for a minimum of 1 hour.
 Coke has a high acidity level so it will cut through
stains with ease and leave your toilet sparkling.
