Lemi Shine Booster Dishwasher Detergent Additive Plus Dishwasher Cleaner, 38oz

Lemi Shine This product is the absolute bomb! It works, really works, on all hard water buildup, stains, anything that gets hit with hard water, period! I live in a place where the water is not just hard, it's positively diamond like. Example: I've tried absolutely everything on my older toilet, from pumice stone, vinegar/baking soda, CLR, tons and tons of other cleaners (violating my own personal- organic- good for the environment- ONLY policy; for shame, for shame!), just to get this stupid toilet clean. Absolutely nothing has worked on this impenetrable, cement like ancient buildup up and stains, not even a butter knife (snapped in half- and I broke a nail, errrrr), would pry the stuff off- I was considering using a jack hammer or similar tool at this point, maybe even a sledge hammer! Frustrated, sweaty, and ready to replace this toilet, like I did with the upstairs toilet- which was in much worse shape, it occurred to me that if the Lemi Shine Dish Detergent Booster I use in a newer dishwasher (does a fabulous job), and older washing machine (you should see the crap that comes out of the pipes), why wouldn't it work in the toilet? I dumped about a cup in, took a shower and went to bed. Next morning, flushed the toilet, and watched in shock as it all just went down the drain! Seriously, it was all gone! This house was built in 1963, the toilet may be as old as that, I inherited all the typical problems associated with older homes when I bought it, including the disgusting toilets and countless plumbing issues. I had been working on the hard water build up for over a year, yes a year, I'm slightly stubborn that way, but now, OMG, it sparkles, really sparkles! It looks almost band new! As my grandma would say “well bless my bees”! Then I did a little happy dance, while yelling “I did it, I did it, I got the friggin toilet clean”, effectively waking up the entire house, maybe the whole neighbor hood, that's how happy I was! Next is the tub area (Lemi Shine Calcium & Rust Remover spray). I am reluctant to use it on anything made of minerals, including tiles, granite/marble counters/surfaces, natural & ceramic flooring, etc., because it does work so good, regardless of the finish (it might eat the finish away?), for now I'll use it on what I consider to be “safe” materials only, and only when there is a buildup happening- like soaking the shower heads, faucets, water jets, bath/hot tubs, glass, mirrors, even my stainless steel appliances like it, etc.! My advice: don't replace your old toilet unless you try this first, it's worth every penny, but be sure to take off your jewelry, and/or wear thick, reusable, rubber gloves! Thanks Lemi Shine, if your CEO shows up at my house I'll gladly let him use the privy, lol ;)

I love this product. I live in an area with somewhat hard water. Lemi shine does keep the spots from appearing. I keep this under my sink to add to the dishwasher load.

I’m honestly impressed. These Lemi Shine Dishwasher Pacs removed dried-on food from dishes that sat unrinsed in the dishwasher for over two days. Glasses came out completely spotless, the pac dissolved fully, and there was no overpowering or chemical smell. 100% recommend.

Does diminish some hard water stains but not completely….been using for years and I feel it’s better than nothing, especially with well water!

We’ve used this stuff for at least 5 years now. Once all the detergent manufacturers were forced to change their formulas, we constantly had film, hard water stains etc. on the dishes. Lemon shine has solved those issues and we don’t even use it every load. Great product and reasonable price. Many other companies make similar products, but this is the one we stick with.
