Bath in need of HELP!!!!

[Eocon]

Hi. I have a cast iron bath..about 25 years old, which through the years has become stained and discoloured.. using hair colours etc hasnt helped. Has anyone got any ideas how I could clean it up? Thanks for reading.

I am sure this is common in England in bigger cities, maybe a solvant used for limescale or something.
Or even google a site that maybe 'relines' these baths. Just two thoughts on this prob.

Hi,


There is a product available called Max Strength Spirits of Salt, it is reasonably priced at €4.99, It is a VERY STRONG ACID CLEANER AND DESCALER, it contains 32% hydrochloric acid, BUT cleans everything ... put it in the most disgusting toilet ever ... in 15 mins its like new... I have used this product for years . It is made in the uk.. their website is www.challs.com or call 0044 8706030420

WARNING... use proper protection with this chemical, causes burns , wear suitable gloves and eye protection, avoid breathing fumes, do not mix with other chemicals....

Always test on an inconspicious area first....


Hope it helps

I got mine resurfaced by a company I found in the yellow pages, The bath Resurfacing Co. They did a lovely job, looks really well. It cost about €250. I now take really good care of it, and it looks as well as it did a year ago when I got the job done.
