I thought it hadn’t work as dirt still showing but when I removed the plastic bag and gently rubbed the shower head with an old toothbrush the dirt just fell off and the shower head looks like new. Thank you for the tip. Very impressed

I let it on for an hour, wow am impressed. Thanks.

I left it on overnight, worked perfectly! Weird thing though, when I first turned the water on afterwards it came out bright blue for a few seconds.

it worked perfectly, my showerhead was heavily clogged. I let it on for more than 22 hrs and i could see the dirt melting away after only a hour, now it works perfectly 😀

Does it work with Apple cider vinegar?

[JustMe-mfms]

Does it work with multi surface vinegar or does it have to be distilled vinegar?

I'm doing this to my kitchen sink because there's something off with the water pressure. Could be hard water minerals clogging it

I'm doing this right now, im using a heavy-duty steel clip you'd find on a clip board. Its been up for about 20 mins so far, im going to leave it overnight.

Just did this now waiting to see if it works

and you can even reuse the vinegar for cooking right after!

Thank you so much for this brilliant idea!

I did this, and it looks great, like new, BUT it made the water pressure so low! Should I do it again, for longer??

Is 30 mins to an hour too short. Some videos said to leave it for 6-12 hours

The bubbles that form I believe are Carbon dioxide ( gas) wouldn't pressure pop the bag? Or does it not produce enough gas to do this? HMMMM>

Hoping this will help get my shower head off, CLR was useless, cant believe someone stuck a completely round nut on there, cant even get it off with a plumbers wrench

"Rubber Band" haha, you mean old hair tie?

It MAY take More than an hour... try 12 Hours to get a REAL CLEAN! :0)
