Post subject: Scaling What would you recommend using to get
rid of hardness buildup. There's a layer of the white build up
on majority of the hot tub surface and I've used HCl, toilet
bowl cleaner, CLR...everything I could think of to try to get it
off and nothing seems to work. The only thing that some what
works is if I scratch it off...but this I trust you have a
better option. The majority of the websites I've consulted offer
what to do to prevent the build up but nothing in the way of
removing it once its here. Please help!!!! |

Post subject: scale build up Unfortunately you have tried all
the things that we would recommend. CLR is preferred by most of
the spa manufacturers to remove the scale. It will take elbow
grease and time but, using a stiff scrub brush with the CLR will
eventually get the majority of the scale off of the spa. (I
sometimes have to get in there with just my finger nails). Once
you have it down to and acceptable level then I would use some
sort of sealant or gloss to try to prevent it from coming back.
I hope this will help. |
