“I’m so flipping excited!” the mum shared in her clip.
“I have tried so many things, so many, to try to fix these hard water stains; I am actually mind blown.”
It only cost $2.40
She went on to say her sister discovered the hack online, passing it on to her, and all it took was one simple ingredient - a $2.40 jar of citric acid from the supermarket.
“I have spent hundreds of dollars on cleaning products, I have a whole cupboard full of cleaning products that I've tried,” she said.
“And citric acid from Coles, or Woolworths wherever you shop, is not what I have tried - just this little jar here.”
She excitedly showed off the extremely impressive before-and-after pictures to her 1197 followers, beginning with stubborn water stains.
“So this is the 'before' clean toilet, but what is that? It does not go away,” she said of the brown stains.
“This, ladies and gentlemen, is after,” she declared, showing off a sparkling clean toilet.
Apart from the astounding results, the woman said she couldn’t quite believe how easy it was to do.
“I put it in last night and gave it a scrub this morning; real easy, no elbow grease required. Done! Look at that! For $2.40!” she shared.
She added she used the entire jar to get the results and just “chucked it in” and left it to sit overnight.
‘What? No Way!’
Her excitement at the extreme clean was matched by the 24,800 people who watched her video, with many just as "mind-blown" as she was.
“STOP IT RIGHT NOW! I love you for this,” one person commented.
“I’m mega excited to try this!!! I’ve tried scrubbing and so many products too. I’m convinced someone has eaten something weird and pooped chemical,” added another.
“I feel liberated on your behalf. I have hard water too. I’ll be doing this,” added another.
Others were also super excited to find the hack.
“This is the only thing I found worked in my toilet too, and I definitely clean it regularly. Best thing ever,” one person said.
“I was so excited when I discovered this too,” shared another.
“I can 100% endorse this; I do our loos about every six months. It’s cheaper and I’ve found it more effective than Scalex,” confirmed another.
Well, there you have it!
Looks like citric acid is the new go-to cleaning agent that really works.
