How to Get Rid of Hard Water Deposits

Sharing is caring!

One of the items on my to-do list for the One Room Challenge was to figure out a way to get rid of the hard water stains in the bath tub. For a while, bar keepers friend was keeping it at bay, but it hasn’t been effective for a while. Other the weekend, I found the solution and it is so easy. Step away from the vinegar! Put away the baking soda. You don’t need salt either! This solution for getting rid of hard water deposits is much easier!

Hard water deposits are no joke. After trying every chemical possible and failing, I found the easiest solution. Best of all, it's chemical free!!

I started by searching on Pinterest for a solution. Everyone advises vinegar and other kitchen concoctions. And I tried them. But all they did was make my bathroom smell like pickles. So then, I scoured the internet looking for chemical solutions. Move over homemade remedies! This is a job for chemicals. But I came up short in my searches. I still had a weird blue line around the tub. I was starting to think that maybe the finish on my porcelain tub had eroded. The dollar signs were adding up in my head. In the mean time, my daughter was starting to complain about the scratchy stuff on the bath tub. No matter how many times I cleaned it, the hard water stains remained. It looked dirty no matter what.

So I did what any desperate person does when internet solutions fail them. I headed to the hardware store to buy more cleaning products. I filled the cart with them (exaggeration: I only bought 2) before a friendly employee asked me if I needed help. She said that Lime-away should work, but if not, I should try this product. I expected her to grab a bottle of CLR (which I had already tried! Duh!) Instead of a bottle, she handed me a box. I didn’t know it at the time, but that box contained a magical product.
