Here are some additional tips for removing limescale:
Prevent limescale buildup
The best way to remove limescale is to prevent it from building up in the first place. You can do this by wiping down surfaces with a dry cloth after each use and by using a water softener.
Be careful not to damage surfaces
Some limescale removers can be harsh, so it’s important to be careful not to damage surfaces when using them. Be sure to test the remover in an inconspicuous area before using it on the entire surface.
Wear gloves and goggles
When using any type of limescale remover, it’s important to wear gloves and goggles to protect your skin and eyes. If you have a lot of limescale buildup, you may need to call a professional to remove it.
