That doesn't surprise me Charlie - I don't mean it's likely, only that whenever the composition of the plastic and the toilet chemical are unknown there is a risk.
I have just had to replace at some trouble and cost a plastic caravan sink destroyed in a matter of days by the use of Dentyl pH mouthwash - the culprit in this case being the ingredient isopropyl myristate.
Toilet blocks are mostly made from 1,4-Dichlorobenzene (p-DCB). I couldn't tell you which plastics it will attack if any, but I have seen urinal cakes probably made of p-DCB used as an insecticide 'melt' a synthetic carpet (probably polypropylene).
p-DCB is not especially poisonous but it isn't environmentally friendly either, normally a consideration with toilet chemicals.
I'll stick with my cautious approach
