How to Clean the dirtiest Toilet Bowl ever
79Ugh! Eww! Gross!
To me, the most important part of the house is the restroom, the bathroom, the loo, or whatever you call it in your country. It is where we groom ourselves to make us look good and be able to present ourselves to others. People say that the restroom can help you tell if a person is hygienic or not, which simply means, if their bathroom is unkempt, chances are they're not very particular about their hygiene or how they look as well. As we all know, hygiene is very important. When you have a dirty bathroom chances are the rest of your house is dirty too. The worst part of having a dirty bathroom is having a dirty toilet. It's the grossest thing ever! I don't know about you, but I can't sit on a dirty toilet, I'd rather hold it in than go in a dirty toilet, with dirty toilet water that can splash on me, that's just gross! You probably won't get any infections from a dirty toilet, unless you've got a cut or an open wound on your genital area, but it's still gross. There have been a lot of talks about conserving water, what with global warming and how we are running out of all natural resources, including that of water, and one way of conserving water is not flushing the toilet often, but come on, don't get to the point where your toilet get stains all over it and have that bad smell. You should at least flush after 2 pees, and of course flush the toilet after every poop, leaving a floater behind for everyone to see is just plain disgusting.

The Way to a Clean and Odor Free Toilet
Okay so we all know how repulsive a dirty toilet can be, as you know, I tend to become obsessive compulsive in the bathroom (and in the kitchen), that's why I clean my toilet this way, I know this will help you, so happy toilet cleaning! c",)
Caution: Use a mask and a pair of rubber gloves before attempting to clean a toilet with Muriatic Acid or Hydrochloric Acid.
What You'll Need:
1. Toilet Bowl Brush
2. Rubber Gloves
3. Bleach/Powdered Soap
4. Mask
5. Muriatic Acid also known as Hydrochloric Acid
6. An air freshener spray of your choice
How to Clean your Toilet:
1. Rinse/flush the toilet, then, pour the acid directly into the toilet bowl in a circular motion, make sure you get the acid under the rim of the bowl, because that is usually the place where the brush won't reach very well, so make sure you cover that area. You'll notice at this point that the acid is actually melting the dirt and grimes and is getting rid of the stains, if there are any. You'll also see a lot of fumes, which is why it's important that you have a mask, because the fumes smell really bad.
2. Let the acid sit for about 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, scrub away! You'll notice that because of the acid, it is easier to brush away the dirt, leaving a clean bowl.
3. Flush the toilet at least twice this time making sure to get rid of the acid completely.
4. Put about 2 table spoons of bleach, or powdered soap on the toilet, whichever you prefer, I use both, I use bleach first then laundry detergent because they smell better afterwards. The bleach helps get rid of unwanted germs, so you can be sure that the toilet is clean. Scrub the bowl again, then flush.
5. You'll notice at this point that you're toilet will be as clean as if it was new, if you're not satisfied with the clean smell of the bleach or the laundry soap, then this would be the time to spray that air freshener, make sure to open a window to help the air circulate better.
So, I hope this works out for you the way it does for me. Happy scrubbing!

Not that it has to be said, but be sure not to mix chlorine bleach with other cleaning agents as you could produce (depending on the chemistry) chlorine gas which could prove fatal. Doing it in steps like above seems best.
How about a can of good old diet coke? the syrup in the coke will eat away at pretty much every stain you can produce in a toilet bowl, taking the smell with it. Just shake up the can, open it into the bowl, and let it soak for an hour or two. Use a scrub brush you can dispose of, and it should take care of it.
Why don't you just use a product like Kaboom NeverScrub? The refills are super cheap and it works.
Muriatic acid mixed with bleach can kill you. The fumes are deadly. You should be more careful in things you do not understand. This is very reckless advice.
Obviously Muriatic acid and bleach should not be mixed together, that is why I said after putting the Muriatic acid and scrubbing away the dirt flush it a couple of times and then proceed with cleaning with the bleach. I did not say mix the bleach and Muriatic acid together. Everyone with common sense know that you're not supposed to mix the 2 anyway. Duh. You should really read and understand the post before leaving a comment.
don't trust people know exactly what your meaning. Mixing the two can be fatal, but make sure to put that. Not everybody has common sense and it's best to talk as if your audience is aliens that just learned English :)
My renter moved out and left the grossest toilet I had ever seen. I didn't think I could get it clean, but, I followed your instructions. The toilet looks new. Thank you.
THANK YOU! I didn't think anything would ever get my 12 year son's toilet clean, and after reading this I went to the hardware store and picked up a product called Acid Magic and it worked so well, the toilet looks brand new. I'm still in shock, I've tried to get that thing clean for weeks to no avail. Thanks so much for this article!
Often, foul smell persists in toilets, no matter how clean we manage to keep them. This is where a good deodorizer steps in. Even the worst-smelling toilets can be transformed into a welcoming place by using a sweet-smelling deodorizer. Deodorizers are available in a range of fragrances like lemon, orange, lavender and much more. Most of them emit fragrances that last a long time. Good deodorizers provide continuous fragrance from the air freshening gel swirl and also effect powerful cleaning with every flush.

Some useful tips, now if I can just teach them to my wife!
Surely the acid would get rid of all germs and bacteria, and you wouldn't actually need to use the bleach afterwards. Also the fumes given off by the acid are highly dangerous - keep the windows wide open and air the whole house. And if you scrub before flushing you need to be exceedingly careful not to get any splashes on anything whatsoever, and rinse the brush very very well afterwards
I tried the muriatic acid and it worked wonders. It took me another week of particular nasty "bowellings" to produce another brown ring stain on the toilet. Any advice on prevention?
Cleaning your toilet bowl is really hard. You should make sure that 100% of the dirts and bacterias are removed. It is important to ensure your health, effort is the best shield.
I have played with acid before and got burned... Luckily I am ok right now
do you really think there are any germs left after the acid?
