    Gleaming kettle

    Used the citric acid to descale my kettle and so impressed. I live in a hard water area and limescale builds up quickly, this is the first product that has completely removed it from the kettle

    Thanks for your feedback - what a difference citric acid can make! Glad it's working well for you.
