Toilet seat stains will disappear in seconds with 1 'game-changing' item - The Mirror

Jul 01, 2025

A stained loo can not only lead to red faces but also infections from the lurking germs and mould. Experts recommend giving your toilet a thorough scrub every few days, which should include a good disinfection of the seat, the exterior, and all other nooks and crannies.

To ensure a spotless and hygienic lavatory free from germs and foul smells, it's crucial to eradicate any stains, dirt, and mould. Cleaning mould may be straightforward, but shifting stubborn stains might require a bit more elbow grease.

However, the specialists at Bliss Cleaning Co. have shared the ultimate cleaning sensation. Bliss Cleaning Co took to their Facebook page to show off how a humble Magic Eraser can make your toilet seat's blemishes vanish in a flash in an easy-to-follow video demonstration, reports the Express.

They said: "Toilet looking rough? Grab a Magic Eraser and watch those stains disappear. Quick. Easy. Satisfying."

The remarkably simple yet effective video sees a grubby toilet seat being scrubbed with a Magic Eraser, resulting in immediate stain removal. Even for seats that have seen better days, this method promises a gleaming finish in under half a minute.

Ecstatic with the results, Facebook user Fleur Hogan commented below the video: "Thanks for this tip, really is a game changer."

Magic Erasers are, in essence, just sponges made of melamine foam which, when combined with water, can tackle tough stains with ease.

They function like super-fine sandpaper due to their hard microstructure. The open-cell structure of melamine foam enables it to lift and trap dirt within its cavities, making it an efficient and chemical-free cleaning tool.

While potent for removing stains, Magic Erasers wear out quickly, akin to pencil erasers, due to their abrasive nature and the mechanical action required during cleaning.

They're very simple to use, just dampen slightly, and use small circular motions until the stain fades, then wash the surface clean to remove any residue.
