Toilet Cleaner

Types of toilet cleaners

There are 4 main types of toilet cleaners – gel, liquid, tablet and balls/blocks.

• Toilet cleaner gel

Gel-based toilet cleaners are applied directly to the inside of the toilet bowl. The gel formula is thick and viscous, allowing it to cling to the surface of the bowl and penetrate tough stains, dirt and grime.

• Toilet cleaner liquid

While toilet cleaner gels are more viscous, toilet cleaner liquids are thinner and more watery. As such, they tend to be the preferred choice for cleaning larger surfaces. These cleaners are effective at removing dirt, stains, and other unwanted residues from the surface of the toilet bowl.

• Toilet cleaner tablet

Toilet cleaner tablets come in a solid tablet form and are easy to use. Depending on the product’s instructions, they are either dropped into the toilet bowl or the tank.

Once they come into contact with water, they will dissolve immediately and release cleaning agents to help get rid of dirt and stains. No additional scrubbing or cleaning is required.

• Toilet rim balls/blocks

These balls/blocks are attached to the rim of the toilet bowl. As water flows through the rim, it carries the cleaning agents with it, helping to remove dirt, stains and other residues.
