Rust stains in bathtub (help!)

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I'm willing to break out just about any chemical to get these out. I can't believe I let this happen, but I rent so I really need to get this fixed asap. What do I do?

I swear by a product called CLR ( it stands for calcium lime rust remover-its in a grey bottle ) I have gotten it at lowes/home depot heck even walmart had it once. It is AWESOME, I would recommend the original product which is in a bottle as opposed to the spray bottle (seems a lot thinner consistency and took more to clean up than usual)

We moved into a house that literally had hard water deposit (looked like caked on dried salt) I literally was trying to chip off with a butter nice plus there were tons of rust stains on various things like the toilet, around sink fictures. This stuff saved my sanity.

The Works or any product with oxalic acid is good for rust. Not crunchy, though...

Did you try borax & vinegar? Use an xtra fine sanding sponge with it, it will scrub right out.
