I never thought of using Bon Ami for toilets! I use it for my kitchen sink all the time. Great idea!

I don’t know if it’s technically non-toxic, but my favorite glass and window cleaner is equal parts wintergreen rubbing alcohol and water in a spray bottle. It smells fresh and cleans with zero streaks!
