Why aren't toilet bowls coated with teflon?

[Cyclopathic]

Sounds like a bespoke loo would be the answer. Proper glazing spec and even shaped to your, er, rear

I fail to see what advantage adding spokes to a toilet would achieve.

Either aim better or use a long drop.Simples

Good suggestions both and I thank you for them but this is not the main issue here. Even employing both of these tactics a teflon loo would be ace. Or at least the reintroduction of good old Victorian glazes.

Put bleach in it every day rather than once a month?

But with a teflon loo you would only need bleach once a month. And the older glazes were much more resistant to stains. Just adding more bleach is not a good solution and just represents a race to the bottom.

Just GT-85 your bog then.

Tried that. It just floats.

Besides, I'm not bloomin' made of bleach you know.

Evacuate into your Teflon coated frying pan.This will solve your non stick issue but will not make you popular with other family members i would guess.

A frictionless pan would launch said dirty bomb down the sewer at dangerous velocities. Someone could get hurt.

Think of the back splash.

You probably could eat your dinner off one. The average tea towel has more germs than the average bog seat.

I can confirm that when I took samples from the staff kitchen and the urinals at a school where i worked. Very few colonies grew from the urinal samples. The colonies from the staff kitchen nearly forced the lid off the petri dish.

Perhaps people don't want dark grey coloured toilet pans

Eat less junk and more fibre and it would be a non-issue!

OK if that doesn't work for you. Why not try a different diet? Go for a non stick sh*t approach....................

Unilever will tell you that it's only the British who are obsessed with germs under the rim. And yes, the average WC is cleaner than the average tea towel because the enamel is a dry desert where bacteria are concerned and the few that do grow get washed off, whereas there's nothing better than a nice warm moist tea towel with bits of rotting food stuck to it.

And yes, ColinJ is right - our diets contain much more fat nowadays so the results are more fatty.

.....but can you get white Teflon?
It just wouldn't be the same coming home after a good night out and calling Hughie on the big black telephone.

The answer's simple. It's over £5 per roll and you can only get it in a used condition.
