Thai Lime Scale Remover

Anyone know where I can get the equivalent of Cillit Bang in the Pattaya area? I can't remember ever seeing such a product.

Thanks

I use warm white vinegar. Cheap, non-toxic and effective.

Yep Home Pro has it. I'd do the vinegar if you can stand the smell. It's miles cheaper. There is a 6% solution available at Makro.

I buy the 10 liter can at Makro for some 1xx Baht.

I fill it in a plastic spray bottle or soak a towel with it.

Spray or put/wrap the towel on the affected areas.

Wait...

Rinse or wipe.

Depending on surface use a sponge or a scotch brite to wipe.

From time to time I disassemble taps and let the aerator or other parts have a bath in vinegar.

We have terribly "hard" water with a high amount of lime/chalk..

Recently I found that the water inlet of the washing machine (above the detergent container) was highly clogged.

Required some disassembly of the washing machine.

Of course there are tons of conventional "bathroom cleaners" available in Thailand.

But I don't know which is best for limestone removal.

See this picture gallery:

That "Magic Clean" stuff looks promising?

Should be available at major TOPS and Big C.

The Mr Muscle Anti-Limescale1 toilet cleaner does a great job, not just on toilets:

Never tried.

But normal vinegar will likely not affect a car paintwork.
