What to use that wont damage seals etc on our manual toilet? Not worried about limescale removal, just ordinary toilet cleaning.

I use white vinegar for the heads (as recommend by 'The Headmistress') and most interior cleaning. About £1 for five litres at the cash and carry.

A flush through with washing up liquid doesn't do any harm. At the end of a weekend we usually give ours a clean with the Starbrite stuff, which seems to lubricate the pump as well.

Many thanks. In the interests of economy its gotta be worth giving the white vinegar/washing up liquid method a try in the first instance at least.

Sorry chaps. SWMBO has sent me back to ask the question that should have occurred to me......but didn't. Should the white vinegar be used neat or diluted with water? Thanks again.

Just run it around the bowl and then rinse with fresh water and flush through.

We used to do a citric toilet cleaner - made from citric acid. It was safe on seals etc Due to lack of demand we stopped having it made but let me know if there is a demand and I will get more.

White vinegar with a little chlorine in it. You need not scrub it with a scouring pad.
