    Hi LoLo,

    There's an older thread that should help so I'll merge your thread with it to keep all the suggestions together.

    i know it sounds yucky but my nan have soaked them in the bath with bio washing powder in the past and its worked, they came up like new, i'd make sure you rinse them well after though....and the bath too!!!

    Hi mumzy,

    If you are going to soak them in the bath don't forget to put an old towel on the bottom before putting the shelves in just in case they mark the bath.

    There was a thread on this the other day so I'll add yours to it to keep all the suggestions together.

    Oven pride is £3.98 in Wilkos & very easy to use. I did the washing powder in the bath trick once, yes it worked but cleaning the bath afterwards was HORRIBLE:eek:
