  1. Make a paste using 2 parts baking soda to 1 part vinegar.
    It will fizz slightly—totally normal!
  2. Apply to affected areas and let sit for 15–20 minutes.
  3. Scrub gently with a toothbrush or cloth.
  4. Rinse and dry.

💡 Pro Tips

  • Don’t use abrasive scrubbers—they can scratch the finish.
  • If your showerhead is removable, soaking it in a bowl of vinegar can be more effective.
  • For ongoing prevention, clean faucets once a month and consider installing a water softener if you have very hard water.

✅ The Result?

With just vinegar, baking soda, and a little time, your faucet or showerhead can look brand new again—free of crusty limescale and flowing freely. You’ll improve water pressure, protect your fixtures, and enjoy a cleaner, more luxurious shower.
