Depending on the size of the job, they can last for a long time. A single bar can be used for five different purposes. 10 times. If you're concerned about scratching, rub it on a porcelain surface, such as a sink, to make it grainy, then swipe the grains onto a sponge and apply it to the surface. Although this is the least effective method of using it, it does work with a little effort.
Simply google "is pumice safe for septic systems?" and you'll find a wealth of information. " And you'll discover that the answer is a resounding yes."

In the neighborhood of 4. 5 inches in length, 1 inch in width 1" thick and 24" wide I use them to remove hard water rings from my toilets, and one bar will last a few months at that rate (three toilets).

I just used these out of desperation on a toilet, sink, and tub to remove hard water stains that had accumulated over years despite my best efforts. I went through five of the six sticks pretty quickly, but THEY WORKED WHERE NO OTHER STICK HAD EVER WORKED ON ALL SURFACE. I read some concerns about scratches, and while using a magnifying glass, I can see some superficial surface impact, the scratches do not penetrate the metal, so it went just far enough without causing damage. Bath was my next choice. So much happier now that I'm fitter (ugh). BUT THERE IS ONE PRO TIP: GLASSES ARE REQUIRED! I went after these areas with vigour, and I was encouraged by my progress, so I just kept going. The abrasion will, however, roughen your skin over time. My iPhone is no longer recognizing my thumbprint after a day. I am certain that I will purchase more. Much less expensive than those with not-so-so-so-so-so-so I tried one of the handles first and found it to be very useful.

A few years ago, I moved into a home with a well. Although the house has water softening and filtration systems, all of the toilets had unsightly black mineral rings around the bowl when I moved in. br>br>To get the rings off, I tried everything I could think of: Nothing worked, including various scouring powders and chemicals, very fine automotive sandpaper, a lot of elbow grease, and so on. I was about to go out and buy new toilets when I came across articles recommending the use of a pumice stick. I placed an order for a number of Pumie sticks. br>br>The end result was almost unbelievable. The rings and other discoloration on each toilet were removed in less than 5 minutes using a Pumie stick. The porcelain was not harmed, and the stains did not reappearance. br>br>However, there are a few things to keep in mind: Use the pumice sticks safely and effectively by following the instructions. They're great on super hard surfaces like porcelain, but they shouldn't be used on or near soft, painted, or metal surfaces (painted surfaces, metal plumbing fixtures like faucets and drain stoppers, fiberglass bathtubs, and so on). They'll be scratched for life if you do. The pumice sticks last a long time: I went through one per toilet. br>br>Pumie sticks aren't cheap, but they're definitely worth it. I bought a six-pack, so I have a few extra to try on other difficult jobs, such as my BBQ grill grate.
Hard water stains on toilet bowls and porcelain sinks can be removed with ease with this product. Make sure the stick and the surfaces you're cleaning are both wet. It's a finer-grained, softer pumice, but it's still abrasive. "Wet sanding" comes to mind. Before using, I soaked mine in water for about an hour. As you use the stick, it will break down gradually. br>* Do not use on plastic, fiberglass, glass, or chrome fixtures. This is not the tool to use if your sink and countertop are made of a single molded piece.
One full stick was required to clean away the deposits. In the past, I've used a different brand that has lasted much longer. Because it was used up so quickly, the result I got from Pumie does not match the package's 'Heavy Duty' description. In the future, I hope to find a product that is much more durable.
When running water became available in the 1950s, a bathroom was built. The sink is enameled cast iron, and it was covered in deposits, erosions, and 'permanent' scum, which I assumed were deposits or erosions. Have you tried any of the following? It was just deposits, and the scum was obstinate!.
Nothing worked, including Barkeepers Friend, CLR, and grout cleaner. I sought advice from a plumber's forum and was told by several contractors that the sink assembly would need to be replaced because the stopper could not be purchased separately. I assumed I'd have to deal with it until a friend who used to clean hotel rooms informed me of Pumie. I couldn't believe what a difference there was! Yes, the bar has a few scratches, but that doesn't bother me. It appears to be 100 times better than it was previously. My toilet bowl, which had difficult-to-remove brown hard water stains, now looks like new! I'm keeping the lid up on purpose so I can see how it gleams. LOL.
This is what I used on my gas stove. I was blown away by how well it worked. My stove was covered in grease and grime from cooking (and it was a brand new stove when I bought it), so it had been about three years since we bought it. I had no idea how much had accumulated until it was too late. I clean it on a regular basis, but I've never noticed what I wasn't picking up. Until one day, after installing new lighting in my kitchen, I decided to take a closer look. I was ashamed and embarrassed at what others may have noticed all this time, but my sister told me about this product, and after trying so many other products (and I mean a lot of them), I decided to give it a try. This was the only product that restored the appearance of my stove top to the condition it had when I first bought it. I'll admit that at 60 years old, scrubbing back and forth took some effort. But, with a little effort and time, it was well worth it. Please don't give up on your stovetop if you're in the same boat as me. Take a look at this product and see if it's right for you. You won't be dissatisfied with the results. I strongly suggest it!.
