Rarely does any city dweller have luck with tap water, and over time a yellow limescale deposit settles on the surface of the bathtub.

You need to start fighting it at the first signs of yellowing, and the sooner you do it, the milder the products you can use.

We will tell you which folk remedies will help you make your bathtub snow-white without much effort.

Method one

Table vinegar should be dissolved in water in a ratio of 1:2. This solution can be used to clean plumbing and bathtubs, and to make the solution thicker and treat vertical surfaces, you can add a little liquid soap and leave the solution for 20 minutes. Then rinse with water.

Method two

Dissolve citric acid in a small amount of water and treat the surfaces by soaking a sponge or cloth in the solution. After 15 minutes, all that remains is to wash off the solution and the plaque with water. You can use lemon juice instead of citric acid.

Method three

Mix baking soda with a little water to make a thick paste. Apply it to the surface and leave it for one hour, then rinse with water.

Method four

Whitening toothpaste has a similar effect, but it can only be used in the early stages, when limescale is just beginning to manifest itself.

Method five

You need to prepare a concentrated solution of laundry soap by dissolving the shavings in boiling water. The consistency of the composition should resemble sour cream. Add baking soda, stir and start cleaning the surfaces, leaving for 1-1.5 hours. Then rinse the product with water, and wipe the surface with a soft cloth.
