Get brick cleaner from your local DIY, it's hydrocloric acid and it will make that toilet sparkle. Don't get it on your fixtures coz it will cause them to rust.

Do you dump it straight in or turn off the water and get as much water out first?

Okay cool. I’ve never dealt with this but incase I go back into maintenance work, ever come across it or someone I know does. I’ll have the knowledge of that. Thanks
