      (raises hand) Just to throw this out there, that greasy ring can also be an indicator of a medical condition. Usually of the gallbladder or the pancreas. This happened to me when my gallbladder died. It took about a year for my body to adjust to life without a gallbladder, but once that pain and discomfort stopped, so did the ring.
      If there are no smokers in the house, then people should be asked if they get sick or feel pain after eating a greasy meal. Fatty stools can be identified by the grease ring before the BM looks fatty. The ring is the earliest indicator of the problem. My daughter has chronic pancreatitis and she gets the ring when she has a flare. Her pancreas isn't able to excrete the proper enzymes during those episodes.

      I have a ToTo Sana Gloss Glazed toilet. Its instruction sheet tells me not to use any bleach, cleansers, anything abrasive, acids etc.. To use mild detergents with soft cloth or soft brushes, but it doesn't get out the environment ring. Any suggestions on removing the ring would be appreciated. Thanks. WWII

    You are one of the ONLY people who explains common bathroom stains so expertly well. What people need is help with the chemistry/microbiology of what and why there’s buildup in showers and toilets... when they figure that out, using the right cleaning supplies for the task becomes infinitely easier. And for ONCE... for ONCE, I found someone who didn’t insist the solution is “distilled vinegar and baking soda” 🙄🙄🙄 Might as well just try to clean everything with table salt. Thanks so much for the intelligent, organized, and knowledgeable break down! 👍🏼👍🏼

      THE BEST cleaner for the toilet I have ever used is from the dollar store called The Works. I never get the toilet one, I get the tub and shower one. Put some in the bowl and let it sit for an hour is possible. A slight swoosh with the brush and its spotless. Its also amazing for the tile and tub. I use to clean homes and this is hands down the best.

      Wow, thank you! I'm honored by the compliment. And keep me posted on how it goes with the toilet brushes. I'm eager to hear how it goes. True story, I was in a Wal-Mart the other day and walking towards my husband who had the cart. I had 5 toilet brushes with holders in my arms and when I reached my husband he whispered "people are staring at you." 😂😂😂

    One thing to note, if you live in a hard water area that is high in calcium and magnesium but low in iron, your hard water buildup is usually whitish, not brownish-red. If you suddenly see red staining in a toilet, that might be a warning, so maybe check that there isn't something rusty in the toilet tank, like a toy.
    Angela, I replaced my toilet brushes with silicone ones you recommended and I do a quick clean every morning. It makes it so much easier to do an inside-out, top to bottom clean because it never gets gross enough to make me procrastinate. Thanks for helping me develop better habits, and thanks for recommending brushes that do a better job and aren't nearly so gross to deal with.

    I never knew that the ring around my toilet bowl was from a buildup of lime. After watching this video I purchased a bottle of Lysol lime and rust cleaner and after using it, I was able to remove the unsightly ring around my toilet bowel I’ve been looking at for over 6 years in under 20 minutes. Thank you for uploading such wonderful educational videos for us.

    One thing to consider when selecting cleaning products, whether for the toilet or elsewhere, is what kind of sewer system you are on. If you are on a city or municipal system anything you use will be pretty diluted in the system. However, if you are on an individual septic system you have to be more careful about what you are sending down your drains because it may harm the critters that eat up the waste in your septic system. For example, if you use an acid for cleaning it will kill the good bacteria in the septic system which is a BAD thing. However, if you use something acidic in the toilet you can neutralize it in the bowl by adding something like baking soda until there is no longer a fizzing or bubbling reaction before flushing it away.

    Hi, Angela. I'm watching you for a while now, and I've noticed you explain every stain from the scientific approach, like rust is cleaned with acid, fat and dirt is cleaned with alcaline degreaser. You tend to explain chemical ingredients of every dirt stain and how to approach it. You're amazing. Oh, has anyone told you, you look and talk like an Airforce military captain with so much order and discipline. 😊😊

    Thank you. It had been a while since I properly cleaned my toilet. I had never cleaned a stain like this. Tips from your video helped me to use what I had. I used The Works and a bleach cleaner. First, I turned off the water valve after flushing. I then scrubbed the cleaners in using a Dawn toilet brush and let it sit. A couple hours later, I flushed and repeated. Each time, it became cleaner. No stain, no scratches. I'm now using this same method to clean hard stains in my shower. It's working.

    Something to add about the black ring. If you have a diabetic in the house you might notice your toilet bowl having a black ring.If your diabetes is really bad it turns a blackish brown. It will go away once you clean the toilet but, like Angela said, somethings don’t flush away and stay in the bowl.

    For years I couldn’t figure out why I kept getting a ring no matter what chemical I used and I used everything known to man. I found out it was because of hard water where I moved to so nothing chemically would have worked. Now I use bath stone that I found at Bed Bath and Beyond, put on some rubber gloves, put some music on and maintain my toilet with that. Takes awhile sometimes, just have to be patient. And once that’s done, maintanence is key!!! I LOVE your channel!!! You make me want to clean things! Lol

    I got rid of hard water stains with vinegar and a plastic scraper. It’s a slower working process, but you can leave it to soak when you leave or go to bed. I brought mine back from the brink of needing to be replaced with vinegar and sometimes baking soda. Every time I would get a plastic scraper after it. Also - every now and then I take a bath and I empty at least half of my bath water down the toilet to clear the pipes once or twice a week. I have also put the soap and warm water in and that also helps. Use enough Vinegar and that will also keep germs at bay.

      It's true. I've been in homes with no toilet brushes at all. The Dollar tree sells toilet brushes and they make a great gift. We keep a stash of them in the car and will leave one at each toilet that is missing one. Now they have one for the next time we come.

  • @d.vaders1178
    @d.vaders1178 Před 3 lety +6

    Fourth type...blue rings and streaks. This is caused by acidic water and copper pipes. You will find the blue stains on all plumbing fixtures...sinks, tubs, showers and toilets. The acidic water eats away at copper pipes VERY slowly but deposits that copper on everything it touches. As the copper oxidizes it turns that pretty shade of patina blue that you sometimes find on old pennies. The most unfortunate aspect of this is that at some later date, depending on acid levels, the copper pipes begin to have pinhole leaks in all the worst places like in the walls or under the home. IF you have blue stains, you need to install a water treatment system that uses salts...we had this problem...I think it is a softener system. It ran us somewhere in the $2000-$3000 range for our 3500 sq ft home on well water. The blue stains are incredibly hard to clean away but with the install of the system, they go away. So blue stains indicate a much bigger problem than the other stains.

    Angela, you are AWESOME!! Thank you for doing these videos. This information is invaluable. I have had issues with mold flies for years. I couldn't figure out what the source was-sink (nope), shower (nope). They were driving me CRAZY!
    Last night, during a bathroom break-where we have our greatest epiphanies-I was wondering why I couldn't get rid of the green/black ring in my toilet. I had had my water tested a few years ago. Water, so far, is fine.
    And then it hit me.
    I'm such a friggin IDIOT. My mom, a professional housekeeper, is rolling in her grave.
    The RIM!!! Like so many others, I tossed out my icky toilet brush and replaced it with that Clorox wand. And while I swish around the rim-getting all kinds of gunk-that wand is incapable of deep scrubbing, of getting up in there where the mold is hiding.
    I'm headed out now to get a new brush and old fashioned toilet cleaner with the goose neck. I'll still use the Wand for the bowl, but now I see how important getting up under that rim is.
    So many icky hiding spots in our home. Thank you for addressing the stuff no one likes to talk about. Wish me luck!!

    • @cUser691

      @Carlie JoYou figured it out so your mom would probably be happy. You’re right about the rim- lots of stuff lurking there. It’s extra apparent when you get out of shower and see toilet from a different vantage. Feels great when the entire bowl us clean and sanitized from all angles, for sure.

    For years I have cleaned a very large and well-appointed law firm's building twice weekly. I had no idea why every time I go, there are black rings at the water line. Now I know. Thank you. There was a lawyer who chewed a lot of tobacco - and the time I discovered that he hid a giant styrofoam cup of spit behind his monitor, open, and filled to the brim... I thank God it somehow did not spill when I pulled the rolling desk out to clean behind it!!!
    The men's urinal is covered in black dots, all the way up to the water inlets at the top. I wondered why it smeared, and I guess it is the greasy aspect you mentioned. Why is it way up there? Should I use straight bleach to try to kill it after the cleanser?
    What percent of hydrochloric acid should I buy? Lysol bowl cleaner does not always do the trick.

    @arkrainflood Před 4 lety +3

    one trick that reduces/eliminates all rings is:
    1) rapidly dump a bucket of water into the bowl so that the siphonic action lowers that water level in the bowl
    2) dry the bowl, especially below the water level that typically occurs after a flush
    3) spray WD40, yes, that anti-rust /lubricant !!! into the bowl and cover all exposed surfaces.
    4) wait an hour before flushing. the water level will return to usual level.
    the WD40 acts as a shield against anything that causes a ring. its effects will last a week as long as no auto-dispensing toilet chemicals are used and one flushes immediately after use (ammonia will remove it also).
    as a side benefit you will not get any "skid marks" 😜

      Hi! 😊 Thank you! One of the methods in the video should work. If it's hard to get to holes with water in the bowl, you could try draining it so you can scrub more easily.
