    Help - yucky cleaning question!!!!

    Wondering if any wonderful BB girls have a suggestion to clean a urine stained toilet seat??? It is a plastic seat and has some stains on it from our 3year olds toilet training seat - something I had failed to notice until it was yellow...
    I have tried bicarb/vinegar, washing detergent - it is a little faded but looks awful despite being very clean!!!

    TIA!

    i would use bleach. U can get bleach sprays so just spray it, leave it and wipe away. If its badly stained u may need to use it a couple times.

    Thanks girls - I have taken seat off and am soaking at the moment! Bit embarassing as I realised how shonky the cleaning has been recently! On a brighter note I have learnt how to take off the toilet seat!

    We bleach our seats regularly, there's a thread somewhere. Comes from a habit my mother had.

    Update on the seat - looks much better but will need to have another shot!

    Cai - I can see that this will need to be done more often now I have the power!

    Bath - we have a lovely ivory caroma number circa 1982, which has some plasic screws underneath the bowl where the seat joins the tank if that makes sense! Undo these and it all comes apart.

    Cheers!
