We have iron and sulfur in our water. Our toilet has a brown water ring at the water's edge. One time, when I cleaned the the toilet, I forgot to flush. Now it has a blue ring around the brown ring. I have tried different things with no success. Please help.

Slip on some cheap rubber gloves, grab a pumice stone, ( found in personal care area of stores like Walmart, which are used for removing calluses from feet), gently rub around the stained area, using a "throw away rag" to see when you have accomplished the job completely. This was told to me by a woman who had worked at a hotel, and it does not damage the toilet bowl.
outstanding solution!
I found that using a pumice stone really works. You can get them from the hardware store and it will not scratch the surface. Just gently scour the ring in the toilet and they disappear.
i am from central usa. i tried a pumice stone i used a whole one and no it didnt even budge the toilet stains off my toilet. i tried tide, i tried whip it liquid. nothing happened. i saw online coke dont work either.
Yes, I just used the pumice stone the other day & it works when nothing else will!!! I bought mine (on a handle and made especially for that) at my local grocery store for $7.50. It wore down some, but I probably have 20 more uses out of it, at least. You can buy it at most hardware stores.
I had the same problem until I finally found a product called "The Works" disinfectant and toilet bowl cleaner. It's blue in color, is in a slanted top bottle so you can get up under the rim.
I also recommend using a pumice stone. Besides hardware stores you can find them in the finger nail care isle at grocery stores and pharmacies too. Pumice stones are also ecologically friendly. :-)
I use this stuff called the works on my toilet. I have hard water also and I just pour it in and let set for about 10 to 15 minutes and it works great. Hope that helps.
