Product description
Versatile citric acid is also an effective stain remover for textiles and for removing limescale deposits from household appliances. Citric acid can be used to remove limescale deposits from coffee makers, dishwashers and washing machines.
Dissolve citric acid in water to obtain an acidic solution that is suitable for cleaning and descaling stone, porcelain and tile surfaces. Simply rinse with water after cleaning. The cleaning solution does not tarnish or corrode the surface.
