How to Clean Your Toilet Like a Pro (Without the Drama)

Let’s face it—cleaning the toilet isn’t anyone’s idea of a good time. But it’s one of those chores that, when done right, makes a big difference in the overall cleanliness of your home. Whether you're getting ready for guests or just trying to stay on top of the mess, here’s a quick, no-nonsense guide to getting your toilet sparkling clean.

What You’ll Need:

• Flushmaxx Flush Bomb

• Toilet brush

• Disinfecting spray or wipes

• Rubber gloves

• Paper towels or cleaning cloths

Optional: pumice stone for stubborn stains

Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Put on Gloves

Start with rubber gloves to protect your hands from germs and cleaning chemicals. Hygiene first!

2. Drop Flush Bomb into Toilet Bowl

Drop a Flush Bomb into the toilet bowl and enjoy the fizzing action as the powerful ingredients get to work. Allow it to fully dissolve—the suds should rise and nearly reach the underside of the toilet lid.

3. Scrub the Bowl

Once the toilet bomb has fully fizzed and the suds have risen near the lid, grab your toilet brush and scrub the bowl thoroughly, paying extra attention to the area under the rim and around the water line. For tough stains, use a toilet-safe pumice stone. After scrubbing, let the solution sit for another 10–20 minutes before flushing.

4. Wipe Down the Exterior

Use disinfecting spray or wipes to clean the outside of the toilet—tank, handle, lid, seat, and base. Pay extra attention to the flush handle and seat hinges, as these are high-touch areas. Use a fresh wipe or cloth as needed.

5. Clean the Brush (Don’t Skip This!)

After cleaning, rinse your toilet brush with hot water and disinfectant. Let it air dry by placing it between the seat and bowl so it drips into the toilet before putting it back in its holder.

6. Final Wipe Down

Give everything one last wipe with a dry cloth or paper towel if needed. Make sure all surfaces are dry to avoid streaks or water spots.

Bonus Tips:

• Clean your toilet once a week to stay ahead of grime.

• Use a Flush Lube for light maintenance between deep cleans.

Keep cleaning supplies nearby for quick access (but out of reach of kids or pets).

Final Thoughts

A clean toilet doesn’t just look better—it helps prevent the spread of germs and makes your bathroom a more pleasant place. It only takes a few minutes, but it’s worth every second.
