Shower secrets: Banish limescale with this simple DIY trick
Are you tired of stubborn stains in your shower? Or perhaps you're looking to eliminate limescale? It's simple. Just two products are needed to make the shower cubicle look like new. Try this method.
Unwanted deposits can be found in almost every corner of the bathroom. They most often appear in the shower, bathtub, sink, and even on the tiles. Once it "settles", it can be hard to remove, presenting quite a challenge. Chemical agents often struggle to deal with it.
A way to tackle limescale
Many homeowners are well aware of limescale appearing on the surface of the shower cubicle. Hard water, shampoo and soap residues can leave unsightly marks. Regular cleaning is not only recommended but necessary to avoid permanent limescale build-up.
It's important to remove unpleasant deposits regularly. Limescale looks unattractive, but it can also damage pipes. A significant layer of deposits found in tap nooks or showerheads can clog holes, causing very weak water pressure.
DIY method for limescale
This method quick, cheap, and, most importantly, no scrubbing is required.
Pour about 30 millilitres of hot water into a bowl. Then, add two tablespoons of sodium percarbonate and one tablespoon of citric acid. Mix everything vigorously and apply the mixture to the places where limescale builds up. Leave the mixture for 30 minutes. Under its influence, the limescale will start to fall off without scrubing. Finally, clean everything with a toothbrush and rinse it with warm water.
