Toilet Bowl Cleaner
Does anyone have a recommendation for a toilet bowl cleaner that won't mess up the black tank? So far I've only used Clorox wipes, but got a bit tired of that and recently purchased a small toilet brush that hangs on the wall behind the toilet. Just need to know if I should use soap and water, vinegar, or regular bowl cleaner, or something else.
I forgot to mention that we swapped out the provided toilet with a Dometic Ceramic toilet, in case that impacts anyone's response. Thanks!

No comment on cleaners but I will offer the personal experience / opinion that application of whatever 'wax' you use to keep the fiberglass shell of your Escape shiny and slick will reduce the frequency of need and effort of toilet bowl cleaning.
Well, yes, comments .... If not obvious, anything with even a hint of abrasive should be avoided. Personally, I'd not use any product / chemicals intended for use on home porcelain / ceramic toilets on a plastic toilet.

Regular bowl cleaner. The black tank is a holding tank, not a septic tank. Besides, most bowl cleaners are safe for septic - read the label. I've been using Lysol on my home septic system for 40 years and never had an issue.

I use real pine oil in my black tank (along with Calgon) as the treatment. Therefore, pine oil is great for cleaning the toilet bowl, too. Unless you're using an enzyme treatment, just about any cleaner should do.

Thanks for the tips. Just wanted to ensure a regular bowl cleaner would not mess up a holding tank. I think I have heard of the calgon + pine sol combo applied to a clean black tank makes it dump better, thus easier to clean. I know I have to run my Flush-King about 6 to 8 times to get it mostly clean, but the tank is another topic.

Windex spray. Works on everything in that little white room even the shower curtain.

Unique, that makes probiotics for breaking down scum in tanks, also makes a bowl cleaner that is safe to rinse down into tanks. Its called Scrub It.
