With CLR's array of cleaning solutions, understanding application and ingredients is key. Below are FAQs addressing common concerns and usage instructions for our products. Ensure optimal results by familiarizing yourself with these guidelines.
Is Brilliant Bath safe on acrylic?
Yes, Brilliant Bath is perfectly safe for acrylic. Follow the directions on the bottle and be sure to rinse after 2-3 minutes.
How do I use Brilliant Bath?
Always use Brilliant Bath in a well-ventilated area while wearing household rubber gloves and test a hidden area of the surface before beginning to clean. When cleaning, apply the solution to a clean damp cloth, sponge, brush or directly to the surface to be cleaned, allow the foam time to work and then rinse with clean, cold water. Never leave the solution on a surface for more than two or three minutes. If the stain persists, repeat the process. Do not use Brilliant Bath with other cleaners or bleach. Never reuse the bottle when it is empty.
What other surfaces should I not use Brilliant Bath on when cleaning?
Do not use on stone, mirrors, plastic laminates, wood, fabrics, painted surfaces or wall coverings.
Is there a difference between Calcium, Lime and Rust Remover in the gray bottle and Brilliant Bath in the yellow spray bottle?
Although they both come from the fine CLR Brands® family, they are formulated differently and solve different cleaning problems. See each product label for recommended uses along with the helpful information provided throughout our web site.
Can I clean my glass shower doors with Brilliant Bath?
Yes. Our Brilliant Bath is safe and effective on the glass only (avoid any contact with the frame, trim or track of the door, as these are usually made of aluminum) part of a shower door. The best way to apply it to the glass is to spray some Brilliant Bath into a damp cloth or sponge and apply it to the affected stained areas of the glass. After 2 minutes, take a clean sponge/cloth and clear cold water to remove the solution. Do not spray the doors as you will get the product on materials it's not intended to be used on.
Can I clean my vinyl siding with Brilliant Bath?
Yes. You can use Brilliant Bath on vinyl siding as long as it is diluted and is thoroughly rinsed off of the surface in under two minutes. Studies have shown that the top coating of the siding will be affected if full strength Brilliant Bath is left on the surface for five minutes or longer.
Can I mix Calcium, Lime and Rust Remover & Brilliant Bath?
No. The two products have different ingredients and, as is true with any cleaner, should never be mixed with another cleaner.
