better to pull the toilet, do the acid treatmenty outdoors, flush well
with hose, and replace toilet.

when doing toliet, I always flush repeatedly at least 10 times
afterward.

you could also tape all the drain holes shut and use vinegar
oivernite.

frankly ithe acid is quick easy cheap and effective

Yes, it works very well, and is easy and cheap. As I said before, I had all
the lines snaked by Roto-somebody, at a cost of close to $300.00 and still
the toilet wasn't running freely. After your treatment, it was like a
"miracle in a bowl" LOL
and the toilet really is sparkling clean afterward with all that gunk out of
those little holes. The only thing that you have to be careful about is not
splashing on yourself, and as you say open the window. I put a portable fan
in the bathroom before I started, opened the window, and turned the fan on
on my way out. Really, not much smell left at all afterwards.

So what do you do with the left over acid?
