Advantages: Removes limescale quickly and easily.
Disadvantages: You have to use a large proportion of a bottle to do so
I never pay any money for cleaning products. Well, if possible, I never pay any money for anything, but I "acquired" a bottle of Limelite last week and, as the kettle was looking a bit furry and I was off sick from work I thought it would be something to do. (I didn't nick it, by the way - my husband is a surveyor who occasionally has to clear out offices of firms who have gone bankrupt - hence the free cleaning stuff, computers etc.) My mum always uses some stuff called Kilrock, which she claims is the only thing which could possibly work. I will be recommending Limelite to her, however, as it zapped the limescale fast and furiously. Limelite is easy to use - you just boil the kettle, squirt it in, leave it for about fifteen minutes, wash it out, boil it up again and that's it. As soon as I poured the Limelite into the kettle, it started to make a fizzing sound - a sure sign that it must be doing something. After a few seconds, the limescale began to float away from the sides before my very eyes. Wow! A fascinating process to watch (who says I haven't got a life?) Fifteen minutes later, a perfectly clean and clear kettle. There was no evidence of limescale floating about - it had disappeared and if I could remember anything about A-level physics, I could probably tell you why. Well, this would not be a good opinion if it didn't list some disadvantages, so I must point out that you need to use about half the bottle for one "go". Don't be fooled by the fact that it looks as though you are getting a lot for your money - it will run out fairly quickly. I am ashamed to say that I don't know whether it's good value for money as I didn't fork out for it - if it hadn't been free I would have just put up with bits in my Earl Grey for years to come. Having seen the excellent results, however, I will definitely try to "acquire" some more in the future.

Wine Vinegar (having a higher acidity than ordinary vinegar)is quite good for 'London' Limescale in kettles. |
