Has anyone tried Whink on colored toilets or tubs?? We're moving out of a rental that has very old blue and yellow porcelin tubs and toilets.

I am a Facilities Manager we use this product on sinks and toilets all the time. It works great to get out stains. My only caution is don't let it lay on the drain part for an extended time it will cause it to discolor. We put this product into the toliet when the water is in it and it takes the stains right out.

The bath needs to stay clean. Algae, bird poop,etc throws them off. Ours seem to work well as long as it stays clean. There is probably something better out there, I've not found it yet. Squriels (sic) are a big problem though. Wish I could help more.

We just use regular cleaners like Lysol... But it's not perfectly white. I read that there is a special cleaner called R.O.G. It costs allot more but is said to make the tub like new. I may try that. No matter what we still love tub grip, it IS a great product!

I cannot answer your question.On my bidet I have red for hot and blue for cold and I'm ok with it.If you have them on the contrary maybe you should ship it back or maybe you can try with a permanent marker draw the arrows??

D S glembin' s idea (posted here) on how to position tub might work well and would b nice during winter time. However, I would still be worried about bathroom getting dirty from doggies shaking off water from their fur, the bigger the dog, the worse.

I had no problem. The instructions are decent. Make sure you use the johnny bolts included with the toilet. I also had to replace my waste pipe flange in the floor that had rusted out, and used the bolts that came with a new flange - they were a different size and the thumb screws that came with the toilet didn't fit on them.

Try filling the tub just above jets with water (after rinseing out the yuk) add a full half gall bleach (take care) rin the jets for 5 min then let it stand for at least 6 hours. Oh yuk followed by the bleach soak worked for me finally

I ordered this tub and there was a mistake with the delivery company, Amazon were unable to help, bottom Line don't order this tub from Amazon unless they have improved their large item delivery service. I ordered a tub from Home Depot with no delivery issues you might want to fo the same

I believe they would solve your problem. My hard water buildup was very bad. It did take one pad to clean one bowl. After five minutes of scrubbing, the pad was shot. The pads are not that expensive when you consider the toilet bowl will look like new.I am not a fan of the pumice stone. I tried it in the past and I ended up with scratched porcelain. If your buildup is severe, you might want to just use the pumice stone to remove the top layer and then use the pad. I could not believe how well the pad worked on its own in so little time.

You probably could, but, scouring is probably not the recomended method. There are cleaners out there that would do a fairly good job without ruining the finish on the tub. Talk to your hardware store expert. I believe Kaboom may be one of their suggestions. Remember that stains, lime build up an soap scum may take different products to do the cleaning. Good luck!

Good luck they will do nothing to help you as my tub was a year old and the tubes kept leaking and the seams split and caused it to leak in my house, They were of no help at all..

It is recommended by the manufacturer that whink only be used on porcelain surfaces. I have used it on my fiberglass shower with no ill effect, and good results.

No! We have had 3 clogged toilets on our septic system since we tried this TP out. Will go back to our other brand.

I had this same problem in a apartment for 2 years after moving in!! You can try this BKF, but also what worked for me was Lysol/Clorox (can't remember which one) toilet bowl cleaner - but get the one that looks strongest (I picked one with bleach). Pour it on...but let it sit for 20-25 min instead of brushing off right away. After that, come back, brush some off & do a second coat. There's still a little grossness, but for the most part, that took care of it.

hey Barbara, I Have not had a problem thus far. Color is still radiant. Have in my guest bathroom and that could be the reason. This bathroom is seldom used.

Unfortunately, about 6 months after application in my bathtub I got a small peel which eventually turned into a large peel and we ended up replacing the bath tub...... It could have been that I didn't get that area as clean as I should have. Not sure, but I may have to re-evaluate my review. I don't know about a toilet, might be worth a try but I would check with the manufacturer for a definitive answer.

We are going to try a mixing valve when we receive ours as my mother is elderly and I need it for her. we already have the valve because we wanted to put it on so the toilet doesnt sweat in the summer with our cold Well Water. I will post results.
