Question

my teaspoons are stained and i would like to know how to get the stains off. any ideas would help!

Answer 1

Place them in a pan of water and add some cream of tartar...about 1-2 tablespoons and boil for about 30 minutes, then wash like normal. This also helps clean aluminum pans that are discolored.

Answer 2

That's an annoying problem. If you're in the U.S., use Bon Ami or Soft Scrub -- products that are made not to scratch.

I don't know brand names in other countries, but look for a powder that is non-abrasive. Comet or Vim would be too harsh. You can also buy a metal polish creme in a tube, but they tend to be more expensive.
