Amazing
Having been a HO for 25 yrs I've en-counted my share of clogged drains & toilets, I fix things myself 99% of the time. One of our bathrooms has had a slow drain in the sink since we bought this place in '88. Its the kids bathroom and naturally it gets 3x the use of other bathrooms. Over the years I have tried most every trick known to man, including removing the trap and snaking the feed into the main drain line. While I've had limited success, I chalked it up to that my main drain lines are galvanized and thats just what happens in a house over 50yrs old. I've had success with another product called glug, I recently ran out and in my searching for more to buy here on Amazon I came across this stuff - WOW is all I can say, the drain runs faster than it ever did, even with both faucets wide open it takes it all. I am utterly amazed and happy to have tried this stuff, and to boot its less than half the cost of what the Glug stuff costs......
Now a strong word of CAUTION ......this stuff is not for the average DIY guy, this has a STRONG reaction when you first pour some into the drain. Rubber gloves & protective eye wear a MUST, DO NOT take chances with your vision or skin or you may be burned or blinded - SERIOUSLY. Next piece of advice have a giant glob of crumbled up paper toweling ready to shield the violent reaction that happens almost instantly. This is like a a mini volcano erupting and you need to be prepared or you will have a mess on your sink & counter top to deal with. Not looking to put fear into anyone, but this serious stuff that can cause serious harm if your not careful. Also hold your breath as you pour it in and turn your head away as the eruption begins as not to inhale the toxic flumes.
Bottomline, very happy with the product and will use again for sure, just be careful when using it and DO NOT skip any of the cautions (gloves,glasses, ball of paper towels) and you will fine. A plumber would charge 100+ to do what this stuff does for under 10, just be smart and cautious.
