Brilio.net - Yellow crust that often appears in the bathroom is a disturbing household problem. This crust usually forms around the faucet, sink, bathtub, and bathroom floor due to the accumulation of minerals from hard water, such as calcium and magnesium. In addition to damaging the aesthetics, this yellow crust is difficult to remove and gives the impression of being dirty and unkempt, even though the bathroom is often cleaned. Yellow crust forms when water with high minerals evaporates, leaving residue. This process is accelerated by the heat and high humidity in the bathroom.
Using the wrong or insufficiently strong cleaning products can also contribute to the formation of limescale. Removing yellow limescale requires extra effort and often requires the use of special cleaning products designed to dissolve mineral deposits. If you are confused, you can try a trick from YouTube user @Gianola Vlog to clean yellow limescale bathroom floors.

In addition to cleaning, preventing waterlogging is also very important to minimize the presence of crust on the bathroom floor. Make sure the bathroom has good ventilation to speed up the drying of the floor after use. You can install an exhaust fan or open the bathroom window after bathing.
Wiping the floor with a dry cloth after showering can also help prevent water buildup and scale formation. If there is a leak or seepage of water from the pipe, fix it immediately to avoid water accumulation that can cause scale. Finally, use a squeegee or floor cleaning tool to remove any remaining water after showering. With consistent maintenance and proper prevention techniques, your bathroom floor will stay clean and free of scale.
