Norwex Descaler is simply amazing.
What it Does
Norwex Descaler is the absolute best product I’ve found for safely removing soap scum, heavy calcium, lime, and rust deposits from shower doors, bathtubs, taps, drains and more.
How it Works & How to Use It
USDA certified 86% biobased formula contains natural citric acids, so it’s both highly effective and environmentally friendly.
I just spray it on, wait 5 minutes, give it a scrub with my Norwex Bathroom Scrub Mitt (another fav of mine) or a Spirisponge, and wipe it clean with a wet Enviro Cloth. It’s incredible. It works better and faster than any other chemical alternative I’ve tried. It’s fume-free and can be used by people with chemical and environmental allergies.
One thing to keep in mind with the Descaler – Don’t use it for any type of cookware, other than coffee pot carafes. It is also not recommended for natural stone surfaces like tile, marble, or granite.
Norwex Descaler vs “leading descaling product “
Here is the testimony of one customer;
When I moved into my current house last year (before I had even heard of Norwex), the bathtub and shower head were disgusting! They were white with years of built-up “yuck.” Repeated application of the leading descaling product and a ton of elbow grease just couldn’t get it off. When I tried Norwex Descaler for the first time, it removed ALL of the soap scum and lime in the FIRST application.
It works much, much better than the leading descaling product I bought at the grocery store. And faster. And SAFER. It leaves a smooth, shiny, and CLEAN surface. I seriously can’t say enough about it – it is one of my favorite and most-used cleaning products.”
And if the above testimony doesn’t convince you, maybe the picture below will help!
I used the descaler on my shower floor and it left a white/dull residue. I am now seeing that it shouldn’t be used on tile (thought I was ok with the label saying ceramic tile is safe). Any ideas on how to get rid of the dullness and discoloration of the tile/grout?
I am currently trying the Descaler for the first time. It has been in my cupboard for a while, maybe close to a year. It smells horrendous! It cleans great, but I have to keep leaving the room to gulp air and then take a deep breath and run in to scrub a few bathroom tiles and run back out…
So awful to try and get done in a timely manner, and rag drips need to be cleaned up from me leaving the room.
The bottle says do not let it touch skin or eyes, so wearing gloves. But this article says, “It’s fume-free…” and that is far from my experience today. I only spray a few tiles at a time and leave the room for 5 min. Then spend 10in. running back and forth for fresh air. The cleaner tiles are not worth me getting an asthma attack from this. So very disappointed at the misleading info. Norwex has put out.
I’m sorry you experienced that. It’s not something I’ve experienced with our descaler. Two things… first – we don’t recommend using descaler on any natural stone, so I would not use it on tile with grout. Second – who did you purchase it from? They should be able to do a return for you.
I really like the client’s testimonial; it works so much better than the leading descaling solution I got at the supermarket. And it’s a lot faster. And it’s SAFER. It leaves a surface that is smooth, glossy, and CLEAN.
I am looking for something to clean and remove hard water and limescale from my colored grout. Will the Norwex descaler work on colored grout? If not, what do you recommend?
We don’t recommend descaler on tile grout or any natural stone.
I was cleaning my laundry room and found an older bottle of norwex descaler. The bottle is white and has a pink label and on the side there is a date 07 17 15 is this a manufactured date is use by?
That’s the manufactured date.
What product can I use on granite? The paste says it could scratch. Would the descaler be the best option?
Hi Jennifer, you can’t use Descaler on stone surfaces, so don’t use it on your granite! Granite can be a tricky surface to clean. To disinfect, wipe down with a damp EnviroCloth. To make it shine, polish with a Window Cloth. If you’re looking to get rid of hard water stains or soap scum build up, the Mold & Mildew stain remover is safe on stone surfaces, such as granite, AND will work to remove the buildup! Simply spray, let sit, then wipe down!
Can this be used on glass tile in a swimming pool as long as I do not dilute it? What would you recommend for my pool tile if not your product?
Yes, Descaler can be used on glass tile in your swimming pool!
Hi, I am using the descaler on my tub to control rust. Should the descaler be put on a dry or wet surface? Thank you
Hi Kathy,
A dry surface is more effective, so that the solution is not diluted!
Thank you….it did seem as though it worked better that way….but it also was helpful to put a couple squirts on my mitt and wipe the tub down after the last shower…b/c our rust is that bad. We have a brand new white tub…so trying to keep it that way. There is another product you sell for bathroom cleaning..is it as good on rust as the descaler? Drawing a blank on the name. Thank you!
I attended a Norwex party a few weeks ago & the consultant sprayed the descaler on the hostesses bathroom sink faucet to show us all how it removed the hard water marks. She then did part of her presentation & after about 10 minutes, she went in to wipe it off & it had completely ruined the finish on the aged bronze faucet. Is there a warning on the label for certain types of metal NOT to use it on?
Hi Nerita, yes there is a warning label on the Descaler bottle telling which surfaces it is NOT to be used on… aged bronze is one of those. That’s so very unfortunate for the host and the consultant…
Is this product safe to use on acrylic tub and toilet that I cannot use the cleaning paste on? Do you use a lot of product to get results or is it thrifty like the paste? Thanks
Yes, the Norwex Descaler is perfectly safe on acrylic tubs – YAY! To answer your “thrify” question, no, it’s not quite as thrifty as the paste (which lasts for a looooong time), but it does last for a fairly long time, as long as you’re not washing your shower/tub every couple of days with it.
