Im having trouble removing it, the basins are quite elderly, as they are in an old office block.

Hi

Spirit of salts.

It's an acid, 32% Hydrochloric acid. Wear gloves & mask, ventilate the room if possible. It will fume, leave for a few mins, then scrub off with a green scourer.

Picked this up from another cleaning forum - toilet descaler. Apply it and worrk quickly, wear rubber gloves and agitate the liquid using the green side of a sponge scourer. Had this exact situation you have only a week ago.....basin came out like new.

Might also be labelled as 'toilet limescale remover'. Either Harpic or own brand will do.  I agree - works great, but keep it off the taps
