Hundreds of years ago, when our children were young, we resisted the purchase of a dishwasher on the grounds the nothing could beat good old elbow grease :-( When they left home, they were much more open minded and they took the first opportunity and bought their own. We were amazed how well these machines did the job - if only we had not been so superior - we would have avoided all those 'It's not my turn' arguments :-(
Anyway, we quickly rushed out and purchased our very own! Everything was given the dishwasher treatment - well nearly everything ;-) In particular, we were astonished how well our stainless steel tea pot came up! It looked like new! Mugs and cups became tea-stain free. It certainly beat Steradent tablets.
The downside is now, after many years, the cups and mugs and the teapot cannot now be de-stained - even Steradent does not now work. :-(
Does anyone know what treatment we can do to get these back to pristine condition again?
