Cleaning: Mrs Hinch fans share ‘miracle’ method to clean toilet

Claire Sutton commented: “As it’s limescale bleach won’t work. I’m a cleaner and use Acid Wash 80 on toilets like this. It’s strong so he needs to follow the instructions and make sure it’s ventilated.”

Jodie Mower wrote: “Empty out as much water as possible. Pour in loads of Black Harpic, leave overnight. In the morning wash it round with the toilet brush, flush and it should be gone. I did that and it worked for me.”

Catriona Sativa also recommended Black Harpic. She said: “My toilet was disgusting when I moved into my flat. I used Black Harpic liquid throughout the day every time I used the toilet and then the Black Harpic tablets over night.”

Nicola Seymour agreed. She said: “Harpic Black bottle – used to work wonders on student houses my son lived in at uni.”
