Remove lime deposits on tiles / tub more easily

In our bathtub and on the tiles had ugly light brown lime deposits formed, our water is unfortunately very calcareous. The painstaking cleaning with vinegar or lime cleaner was now too time consuming, the vinegar would have to be able to act, so I have worked out and tried the following battle plan:

You take:
Vinegar or limescale cleaner (goes faster)
1 roll of kitchen roll
1 flat bowl
Gloves on sensitive skin
maybe an empty spray bottle

Empty the vinegar into the bowl, tear off the kitchen roll sheets, pull through the vinegar and "paper" the tiles and the bathtub. Press something then it will work very well!


Leave to soak for several hours, add vinegar to an empty spray bottle and spray the kitchen roll with it when it begins to dry.

After a few hours, remove the dry paper towel and rinse the bathtub and tiles with water. I only had to rub something with a microfiber cloth and everything looked like new. Repeat with heavy calcification or just rub off the residual lime, but is much easier than without vinegar pretreatment.

I wish you success!
