Cant get rid of wee stains on the loo seat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mummaemma]

yes i have boys who seem to get it everywhere.

have taken the whole seat off and soaked it in bleach and scrubbed but the stains are still there. What else can i try?

[MrsHarryRamsden]

Have you used a scouring pad as well as the bleach?

[littlemisswise]

Scouring pad and a bit of Ajax or cream cleanser will do it, or maybe a bit of bicarb on a scouring pad will be gentler.

I just buy a new look seat, crap I k ow but after scrubbing and scrubbing I gave up.

With my new one it is wiped straight away and then I clean with bleach everyday, no stains so far and boys have it drummed into them to wipe up any drips/splashes!

[mummaemma]

dont really want to buy a new seat. toilet only fitted a year ago.

yeah used a scouring pad. will try Ajax and bicarb

yellow stains on a white loo seat actually come from bleach, not wee. AFAIK it is not removable. Luckily new seats are not very expensive.

Bleach also leaves a permanent yellow stain on porcelain, and spoils old china plates if it gets in through chips or cracks in the glaze.

[mummaemma]

so its the bleach doing it

Have you tried Bar Keepers Friend? Worked like magic on my seat!

[greyvix]

Barkeepers Friend worked short term for me, but it came back (obviously scratched the surface).

Have you got a steam cleaner? I found it really helped remove pee marks.

I have three gents Chez Pale.... New loo seat all the way....

[valiumredhead]

I get a new loo seat every year.

[5madthings]

Yep with four boys we buy a new look seat once a year or sometimes more! They are only about £30.

Even if you manage to keep the, stain free I find with four boys the screw bits etc get a bit manky from wee splashes etc.

I now have an old-school black loo seat. It's the equivalent of sticking my fingers in my ears and singing la la la la laaaa

Good thinking ^
