Questions and Answers What will remove the ex tremely thick coating of lime that has .formed on the inside of a teakettle? The lime is half an inch thick and makes the kettle as heavy as lead. Acetic acid which is a form of concentrated vinegar, boiled in the kettle, will dissolve the lime, and have "no ill effects. It would almost seem, however, that it would be better to buy a new kettle, unless this is an unusually valuable one.
