How to clean a toilet bowl with Coca Cola.

For today’s blog post we are going to be focusing on cleaning! Yes I know it’s not everyone’s favorite hobby, but I am here to make it easier and cheaper for everyone.    I know it sounds crazy but Coca Cola is an easy and effective way to clean a toilet bowl. I was shocked when I found this out and obviously had to do my research to make sure it was a legitimate way to do so. 

Step 1: Purchase a 2 liter bottle of Coca Cola, you can usually buy one of these at any grocery store or even a gas station close to you.  So this is really easy to get ahold of instead of an expensive toilet bowl cleaner only available to purchase at specific stores.

Step 2: Now you need to find a toilet to use it on, you obviously want to see results so having a toilet that is dirty will help you succeed at this.  You want there to be some stains so you can watch the magic happen.

Step 3:  Dump the Coca Cola in the toilet until it is filled just above the water that is in it or do wherever you see stains.  

Step 4: Now you want to let Coca Cola sit in the toilet for about an hour so it can work on all the tough stains.

Step 5: Once you come back to the toilet you want to scrub all around to remove all of the stains and particles that have been working on coming off.  After you do this, flush the toilet and see the awesome results. Your toilet bowl should be all nice and white!

After doing some research I was curious why Coca Cola can clean a toilet bowl, and I guess the acid in the soda is called  carbonic, citric and phosphoric acids, and these break down the stain without doing any damage to the material of the toilet bowl.  Coca Cola can also help get rid of rust Another thing I found that was interesting is that you can purchase a 2 liter coca cola for under two dollars but when looking for other toilet bowl cleaners it was about five dollars so it is also helping you save money.

It is super nice to be able to use coca cola when you have it on hand just in your fridge for a last minute nice and easy toilet bowl cleaning.

I hope that this How To video is helpful for you and that you give it a try.   If you feel like it did not work the first time if you put the Coca Cola in the toilet overnight to let it sit and degrade all of the stains, and flush it in the morning and hopefully you will be able to see the wonderful results. I have loved learning this trick for making cleaning a little less dreadful!
