Author Metal scrapes on white Corelleware?
The Ranger

2008-02-01, 8:25 pm

Someone helped me do the dishes and ended up "scraping" one of my
Corelleware white casserole dishes with a metal spoon. This
"marked" the white with grayish lines. Is there a way of getting
rid of them or has the glaze been gouged and I now have a
permanent internal design?

I don't know what would work, but here is what I would try. Use a pencil
eraser to rub baking soda over the mark. Automotive rubbing compound
might be a better choice of abrasive.

The utensil was probably stainless steel, but acid might do some good.

The spoon that was used is stainless steel. The person that
"helped" doesn't understand the concept of soaking or that they
often don't help...

The baking soda should be made into a paste or used dry with the
gum from the eraser backing it up?

Try it dry first. If that fails, wet it. The pencil eraser is only to
focus the treatment, to confine the area that might be dulled by the
abrasion.

I hope you will let us know what works. I'm curious.

I wonder if a Mr. Clean magic eraser would work. I know it removes
metal marks from my tile counter.

I thought about that, but I've never tried that product; so, I couldn't
recommend it. I suspect it would work, too!

Buy something called Bar Keepers Friend. I used to use it for my Corningware
glass stove top and still use it for just this thing. It is a wonderful
product, very fine so it does not scratch, and it also gets these marks off
Pfaltzgraff dishes. It is a lot less than buying the speciality product they
sell for this.

Barkeepers Friend is a cleanser available next to all the other powdered
cleansers in a gold container. I think Barkeepers Friend is bleach free too.
