White stuff inside tea kettle?
Hi There,
I sure hope someone knows a basic how to on how to clean off
the inside of my tea kettle. There’s a hard white film that occasionally
comes out when the tea kettle is poured. This stuff doesn’t want to come off the bottom of the tea kettle. How do I get it off or do I have to buy an expensive copper bottom tea kettle? Thanks for any help and hope you have a great week ahead!
It’s limescale.
It is harmless, leave it be, otherwise it is a never ending battle.
If you absoloutely must, use CLR available at any store.
