Marks in a toilet bowl?

    Hi there - Hopefully someone can help me with this.
    A plumber used a metal implement to unblock my toilet, and a dark grey marks were left. I thought it might be a scratch and that would need to be repaired, but reading up other people's experiences of this it seems that it might be just a mark which I can remove myself: http://www.finishing.com/193/33.shtml

    For this job, everyone seems to recommend a product called Barkeeper's Friend. I've called every hardware store in Dublin and no-one's heard of it - does anyone know where I could get it, in Dublin 2/4/6 hopefully, or something that might do the same job? I'd really appreciate some advice - thanks!

    I've bought Barkeeper's friend in both my local Homevalue hardware and Tesco; it's been around a long time and it really is great for removing marks when nothing else seems to work. Costs about €5-6 a tub.

    Had the same problem myself and used a bit of cif (jif) and it worked perfectly
