Step 2: Apply Baking Soda
Sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda directly on the black ring. Let it sit for a couple of minutes β this gives the powder time to start breaking down the grime.
Step 3: Add Vinegar
Slowly pour or spray white vinegar over the baking soda. The mixture will fizz (a satisfying sign itβs working). Let it bubble for 5β10 minutes to loosen stains and kill bacteria.
π‘ Pro Tip: Add a bit of lemon juice for an extra boost and a fresh citrus scent!
Step 4: Scrub Gently
Use an old toothbrush or a small cleaning brush to scrub in circular motions around the base of the bidet. Focus on the dark ring, but donβt forget the surrounding area.
Stubborn stain? Reapply baking soda and vinegar and let it sit a little longer before scrubbing again.
Step 5: Rinse and Wipe Clean
Once the area looks clean, rinse thoroughly with warm water and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Youβll instantly notice a brighter, cleaner finish β no black ring in sight!
