Ok, new house and new things I dont know how to clean!!! :)

[Becaroooodolf]

Got the keys today...yay!

Anyway, there is a chrome/stainless steel heated towel rail ( I know, how swanky!) and chrome/stainless steel towel holder x 2 that are coated with...stuff. Its sort of white and grimy looking?

How can I clean them? What with?

TIA!

E-cloth.

A damp one initially to get the muck off - is it limescale, or water stains or something?

And then a dry one to polish.

I clean my chrome stuff with glass/window cleaning stuff.

I am really not sure what it is tbh...as its a bathroom I figured it could be water stains/limescale? Bathroom not that old...only refitted last year.

Great minds Ali I love my ecloth, tis a thing of wonder!!

For extra shineyness I use a spot of baby oil on kitchen roll for a streak free finish!

If the white stuff doesn't come off with just water, try a little bit of lemon juice.

ah...would the lemon juice work on the limescale on the kitchen tap too???

It would!! Something from my dim and distant past says lemon jouce would "melt" the limescale. Acid v Alkeli(sp?)

But I have never had to use this method as I live in Scotland with soft water!

Bec - I sometimes stick half a lemon over the ends of my taps and that gets the limescale better than anything.

Fizz - I am sooo jealous. Life is a constant battle against limescale here. My cleaner comes once a fortnight and zaps it all, but inbetween I have to use an e-cloth regularly else a massive crust builds up again.

Ah! I will try that ali I prefer natural methods if poss (old hippy!)
