Remedies for limescale in the bathroom
You know those annoying white spots that remain deposited on the bathroom fixtures and taps? The responsible is the limestone!
The quantity and the evidence of these stains depends on the hardness of the water itself, a value that expresses the water content of calcium and magnesium ions.
