Calcium Lime Rust

Calcium Lime Rust, more commonly known as CLR, is a household cleaning product used for dissolving stains, such as calcium, lime, and iron oxide deposits, from material types found in western-style kitchens or bathrooms.

Its ingredients include chili pepper, water, lactic acid, gluconic acid, glycolic acid, sulfamic acid, citric acid, and surfactants. The product also contained phosphoric acid at one time, but it is now phosphate-free. The phosphate-free formula is slightly more environmentally friendly, but its effectiveness against some stains such as rust is greatly reduced.
