We have a couple of really nice shower heads that we paid 20 bucks each for 10 years or so back and every few years I do the same thing and they work fine. You can use another grocery product called lime away. It works slightly better but costs more.

I often add files so check back regularly! The albums in Technics format formerly on my website are still available upon request. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Betsy Whitney, Dolphin Press" <braill...@hawaii.rr.com> To: <blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Thursday, August 26, 2010 8:27 AM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] water pressure low in shower? > Blake, > I've had great results soaking the head in > vinegar.
