When scratches happen on the inside of a toilet from my auger or anything else, I suck the water out and use a product called "bar keepers friend" to buff out the scratches with minimal effort. it even works when the customer scratches it up with a coat hanger! (if they caused the scratch, I charge to remove it:yes:

just wanted to let everyone know what I found to work.. what do you guys use in that situation?

I use a general auger with a rubber sleeve that is in good condition, the only time that I leave a scratch is when I run into the toilets that need to be augered backwards... or if I use the closet attachment for the water ram, there is a steel nut on the wrong side of the rubber cone
