I've successfully used cream cleaner to get rid of stains like that :beer: They have bleach and abrasive in them.

I've found an older thread on this subject, so I'll add this question to it, and you'll be able to read the other replies.

You lot are ace
Cream cleaner and a lot of elbow grease has got the majority of it off. Success! I'm going to give it another go with Stardrops in a bit, but it's barely noticeable now.

Glad to be of service
Try gently rubbing the remaining stain with some more cream cleaner, then leave for a while (making sure it doesn't dry out). That may work.

I use bicarb and a lot of elbow grease and find that works well.0

Hi, I've got black worktops and a love of curry, and I use straight bleach all the time to get rid of the turmeric stains.
I've used it on every worksurface I ever had for this purpose, and none of them have stained even slightly.
If you are worried, try it on a little bit under the 'lip' of the worksurface before you put it on the top - it takes about 30 seconds to dissolve the stain, then you can wipe it off.
Hope this helps.0 -
I've removed curry stains from worksurfaces with Milton Sterilising liquid (the stuff you get in the baby aisle for cleaning bottles, teats etc).
I just poured a small pool onto the stain and left it for a while and it did the trick.
Perhaps it would be worth putting a bit on a part of your work surface that you can't see to test it first (ie where your microwave is placed etc).0 -
Ive always used Mr muscle kitchen cleaner to get rid of curry stains. Weird how it turns them orange tho before you wipe it off!!
