how do i clean very hard to remove blue green bathtub stain?

Question

we have a well. water is soft. we think the stain is due to copper from pipes.

Answer 1

Blue green stains do come from copper piping if your water is too acidic. A mixture of half water and half ammonia; rinse well and flush pipes with water after using should clear up the stain. I would also have the pH of the water in your well adjusted so it will not continue this because it is technically eating away at your copper piping.

Answer 2

Green Bathtub

Answer 3

I agree with all who said CLR. If still this doesn't work, let bleach soak on the stain for a day.
