Lime scale in the shower head

It's quite a new one too, we bought it early this year and already the spray has been reduced to a dribble.
Blinkin' Thames valley Water!

Anyway, am I right thinking I should soak it in white vinegar or do I need to add soda bic. too?

Thanks

I usually soak mine in white vinegar but ran out so yesterday scrubbed it with Asdas limescale removing toilet cleaner, then realised that you are not supposed to use on stainless steel. It hasn't done any damage as yet. If you soak it in vinegar, tis best done over night as it takes a while to work.

That's whatI was thinking.
Thanks for replying UCM - I was beginning ot feel a bit lonley here waiting for an answer.

I'm wondering if I should just go for the hardcore LimeLight instead. Don't think I have enough vinegar either.

Limelite gel is wonderful.

I think I would be tempted to use the lime remover stuff and get a pin and prick the holes
