Clean is for the dirt you can
and disinfect to ward off/deal with
nasties you cannot see.
Any tips gratefully received

All I use is thick bleach. Put bleach on cloth and rinse cloth, wipe toilet all over, rice cloth again, wipe toilet again. They I poor some all round the bowl and leave it to sit for a few minute before flushing.

Antibacterial bathroom cleaner, spray all over (cistern to floor), wipe around with jcloth (rinsing between zones, cleanest zones first). Jcloth into bin or hot wash.

Bleach around bowl. Scrub with loo brush (silicone). Let sit for a few mins. Flush.

Every so often I use Viakal as I'm in a hard water area.

I spray seat, lid, cistern, outer bowl with antibacterial spray or disinfectant, leave for 5 minutes. Wipe off with loo paper (then flush) or paper kitchen towel (bin). Finally bleach round the inside of the bowl.

Squirt bleach in bowl.

Limescale remover
Then wipe over with antibac wipes

Thick bleach. A squirt round the bowl first, then some on a cloth for seat etc, don't need much. I use the same cloth for just the loos, then rinse that with a tiny squirt of bleach when finished in hot water.

I'm not into anything fancy for cleaning the loo, I like to smell and know it's been bleached.

I use antibac wipes all over it and then pour bleach over the inside and leave for 5 minutes then flush.

Good ol bleach. I use a spray bottle of bleach to spray the whole toilet, under the seat the lid etc. Wipe down with a cloth, or if you're like me and forget your cloth use some tissue and flush. Then use the squirt bottle of bleach to squirt under the rim, then leave it.

I use toilet duck in the bowl with a brush (the horror) and a bleach/anti bac spray on the rest with toilet roll that gets flushed instantly.
