How to get brown stains off bottom of toilet bowl?

Ughhh!! Your query reminded me of a horrendous experience I had when I rented an apartment in Bangalore. It was a dirty place and a huge mess. Unfortunately, I trusted the broker and didn’t look at it before moving and turned out that the place was a pile of garbage. The worst part? Toilet. I cannot use facilities if they are unsanitary and unhygienic and God I know I was about to puke when I glanced at the toilet bowl. It was brown as if nobody ever cleaned it. Since I didn’t have much choice, I quickly called up my mother and asked how to get brown stains off bottom of toilet bowl. She guided me and I could at least do some cleaning job to use it. Let me tell you about my experience in detail.

As I said, the condition was horrible and there was no way I was getting rid of those stubborn stains just by scrubbing. I asked mom and she said that I should get a Harpic Toilet cleaner first. 

• I flushed the toilet

• Waited for 2 minutes and then poured Harpic generously in the toilet bowl, right at the bottom as well.

• Mom said that usually you have to wait for just 10-15 minutes for it to work but since mine was a unique case, she advised me to let it sit for approximately 45 minutes

• After 45 minutes, she asked me to spray water lightly over the Harpic solution. Not so much to drain it off.

• Once that was done, I took a toilet brush and started scrubbing. It took me approximately 15-29 minutes to finally come to a stage where it was not as bad.

• I flushed the whole thing and used a bathroom cleaner, again from Harpic, to clean the other areas. 

This is how to remove stubborn stains from toilet bowl. I hope this experience helps you. If you have any more hacks please drop in the comments below.
