It would be nice if there was a product available (or better still a raw chemical that could be bought cheaply in bulk ) that would make smears dissolve.
For instance what would be the effect of a handfull of caustic soda pellets chucked into a besmeared bog, (Probably needing a warning to flush before use) surely this would turn the fat in the smears into soap which would be soluble and which could be washed away with a bucket of hot water.
Alternatively what about "Washing Soda".

Thermite.
Or an angle grinder.
Or even WD-40.
Dishwasher powder isn't bad.
water does the trick just s well. The problem with this particular pan is the water never reaches the skid marks
Unless you have gall bladder disease, there shoudn't be that much fat left in your poo. Bile acts as a natrual detergent enabling you to absorb fat.
No idea.

and also heated washing detergent.
However, if it's stuck and doesn't easily wipe off with a brush, that's usually because it's mixed with hard water scale. A small dose of brick acid (fairly conc hydrochloric) works well, but I wouldn't use it if you have cement mortared or cast iron sewer pipes. Don't splash it anywhere, don't try using it on vitreous enamel such as a bath (porcelain is OK), and make sure any other chemicals (particularly bleach, other detergents) have been well flushed and washed out of the pipework first. A small mount of acid added to the bowl over night means just one wipe with the toilet brush in the morning leaves the bowl looking like new after flushing. In a really bad case (rented house where the bog probably hadn't been cleaned for years), a second dose was required, but that was it. Don't use anything hard to scratch away at the deposit, as you may mark/craze the enamel surface.
You can also use a descaler like Furnox DS-3, but you may get a slight blue stain from the indicator dye left behind for a week or so.
Try cheap Denture cleaning tablets
No, its because its now dried and stuck on.
Instead of coming from where the sun don't shine, on this pan design, it ends up where the water don't actually go.
There is a beautiful turbulent eddy wher the water lifts off the pan surface and misses it.
We have softened water, of course. No lime at all.
Yes. Go to a local wholesaler supplier to the restaurant and hotel trade.
Coca cola works well I'm told.
The full fat coca cola is brillo, fab for cleaning car engines as well. drop a 2p coin in a glass overnight, and see the difference. you won't want to drink it again
No, not after you have ripped the oxide of f the coin you wouldn't.
Phosphoric acid in coke IIRC
Not harmful in small quantities and diluted. .
Urea will still precipitate out though...
The 12 spoons of sugar per can will do you more harm.
A squirt of basic toilet cleaner is usually enough to deal with such things, just leave it to soak as long as it can. Sulphuric acid is about the best loo pan cleaner and turd killer, but definitely not something to leave lying around for whoever to use.

Or if someone has been necking those Allieve (sp?) fat-reducing pills.
You don't want to know about the state of the khazi after those...
For teeth, assuming you clean them, they'll suffer more from the phosphoric and carbonic acids.
Why do you say "assuming you clean them"? Do you mean that if you don't clean them, they won't suffer from P&C acids, and is this because the acids will attack the plaque etc in preference to the teeth themselves?
do you have domestos, or aldi's power force heavy duty cleaner, a squirt of that every now and again, leave a bit then flush, works wonders. ps it is a bit caustic
How did that happen? Avocado bathroom suites were the bees knees. And stone cladding. Suspended ceilings in kitchens. Formica.
According to
Avocado bathroom suites (56%) Woodchip wallpaper (55%) Floral carpets (45%) Flock wallpaper (43%) Chintz/floral furniture/furnishings (42%) Artex (42%) Floral/chintz décor (42%) Waterbeds (40%) Shell-shaped corner baths (38%) Themed kitchens/bedrooms (38%)
Were we all drunk in the 70's?
Not me. I like avocado suites actually.
And waterbeds.
