ᐅ Coated shower enclosure – 8 weeks old – how to remove limescale

I would (will) save that money on our upcoming new build. The same goes for the Wondergliss coatings on the sanitary fixtures. In our current bathroom, we have two washbasins, but we somehow only use one of them (there is always some stuff left in the other). After some time — I would estimate around 10-12 months — water beaded perfectly on the basin that was hardly ever used, while the other basin still has a lotus effect like grandma’s sink from the potato war era 😡

It's all just marketing. Even our water softener system only helps to a limited extent.

We don’t bother wiping it off; instead, we just spray two or three light squirts of mild glass cleaner with a spray bottle and rinse it off with cold water (the last person to shower in the morning does this—the spray bottle stays in the shower). It’s already 7 or 8 years old with no signs of aging or limescale buildup—and the cold water still beads well despite the hard water in our area.

I just used vinegar cleaner – the results are limited. It really looks like the lime scale has "settled in" – after only 8 weeks!

Try again with citric acid, let it sit lukewarm (I'll leave the method up to you 😉)

I'll give it a try – it can hardly get any worse! 😉
