Rinse the sink with warm water.
Apply a few drops of baby oil to stained or dull areas.
Scrub gently with the pumice stone in circular motions.
Rinse thoroughly with water.
Buff with a microfiber cloth for a mirror-like shine.
🚽 For Toilet Bowls:
Flush the toilet to wet the bowl.
Apply baby oil directly to the stain or onto the pumice stone.
Gently scrub mineral lines, rust rings, or hard water buildup.
Flush again to rinse.
Optional: Wipe around the bowl with a damp cloth.
✔ Safe for porcelain if both the pumice stone and the surface stay wet.
🏛️ A Quick History of Pumice Stone Cleaning
Did you know?
Pumice — a light, porous volcanic rock — has been used since ancient Greek and Roman times for personal and household cleaning.
Its natural abrasiveness makes it tough on stains, but gentle on surfaces — especially porcelain and stainless steel.
🔬 Why This Combo Works
Pumice = Gentle Abrasion
It acts like ultra-fine sandpaper to lift away buildup, rust, and grime — without scratching hard surfaces.
Baby Oil = Lubricant + Shine
Softens residue, breaks down grime, and leaves behind a subtle polished finish.
Together = Chemical-Free Deep Clean
