Can I revive white tea-stained mugs?

Isn't is the lemon? You can use this to 'bleach' your hair so why not 'bleach' your cups with it?

It probably is the lemon. I never knew you could use so many things in a different way than they are 'supposed' to be used.
This site is great.

I always just stand teaspoons and mugs in bleach and water overnight and always come up clean just wah well before use.

I soak mine in bleach when I am cleaning the sink!

A splodge of bleach in the sink fill it up with boiling hot water and sling in cups and spoons.. though they rarely need it now we have a dishwasher ..

I am not keen on using normal household bleach so I used Milton Sterilising liquid (the stuff from the baby aisle) and that worked fine.

Was great for getting stains off the worktops too.

Value price denture tablets. They work great on the white cups. I use them in the stainless steel flask as well. 1/2 a tablet or less should be enough.

Wash-up offending item as normal, put some bicarb on & rub to a paste over the stained part, rinse off & wash again - sparkling stain-free items without the smell of bleach!
