Cleaning your Bathroom
A bathroom obviously needs to be cleaned regularly, both for hygiene purposes and to make sure that it is kept at its best for as long as possible. However, there are some things you need to think about before you simply pour on cleaning agents and get the scrubbing brush out.
It is essential to check that any cleaning product you have bought will actually be safe to use on the type of bath, wash hand basin and toilet that you own. This may sound somewhat over cautious, but some chemicals are quite strong and may work well on one particular type of bath, but not be so good for another. For example, a cleaner can be safely used on an acrylic bath, but if it is applied to a cast iron bath it may actually take off the enamel.
Taps can be damaged by some types of cleaning products, particularly if they are gold effect, since the surface may react badly to any bleaching agent. Frequently the damage does not become visibly apparent for some time and by then it may be too late to rectify the situation easily.
Try to make sure that you use the minimum amount of chemicals on your bath and wash hand basin, as this will help retain their original surfaces for as long as possible. However, for obvious reasons, it is likely that you will want to ensure that you do keep the toilet as germ free as possible and most have been designed to withstand chemical onslaughts, it is the bath and wash hand basin which can be very sensitive.
