I have some very old but still functional graniteware and enamelware. I'd love to clean up some of the stains. What do you think?

I'd say give it a try, especially on a small section first. I love the stuff. I use it for just about everything.

Inside or outside of the pan? I've used FARBERWARE Cookware for many years and never had a problem as described. I scrub my stubborn stains with Barkeepers Friend, works every time!

Fill the sink with a bit of bleach water, and let it soak. I have gotten all the stains off of mine that way!

Karen: I would think it would be OK to remove--not sure if it would dull/change the appearance of the granite after removal of the quick shine so obviously try a small test area first.

It could work. I don't know what metallic paint would look like on top of the stain, but it's worth a try. And even if it doesn't work you get a light boken out of the deal

It has dawned on me that maybe the reason you aren't getting good results...is old porcelain layered on metal. It may have worn thru to base ?Just a reminder that sinks are one of our least expensive items to replace in kitchen :) Un-less you desire one of those top of the line "farm sinks".Anyway, good luck...just thoughts I wanted to share.

I would try MAAS. It removes stains and polishes without any damage. I have tried other suggested products and concoctions and this is the only one that I feel safe using on my precious metals. It is amazing!

Absolutely. I run it through the dishwasher at least twice a week. There are no problems, no spots, no rust stains. The best flatware ever and so shiny.

Avoid soap, and I use a plastic scraper to clean off food- you know the kind you can get to clean stoneware. Dry thoroughly, and wipe a little oil on it before storing.

I have had no problem at all. One thing to remember with "Stainless" steel.... it can stain. Sort of an oxymoron I know but I work in the steel business. This grade of steel in these pots is a high quality and any staining will be minimal. It is easily removed with Barkeeper's Friend Cookware Cleaner. Also, I don't use the dishwasher all the time for my stainless pots. The highly alkaline detergent in dishwasher detergent is terrible on stainless steel and will cause the staining fast. It will also dull the beautiful mirror finish over time. These pots are so easy to clean. I just use a dish sponge and wipe em down. If I happen to burn something or I notice some spotting on the pots, I use Barkeeper's Friend Cookware Cleaner and it cleans right up. They look brand new still!

You can use an SOS pad on the handle. It will take the tarnish off and make it shiny again.

Depends on use, but once a year is probably more than enough. My granite installer suggests just dish soap cleanup as needed in between.

My wife tried it on our sink with a few stains, it didn't work very well for us. She saw a commercial that they dipped a old penny in it and it came out brand new. If you have an old penny you want to make new buy it, but for sink stains, I'm not so sure!

I'd suggest looking at your decor. We have a kitchen with mostly stainless steel appliances and brownish tiles, so the combination of the silver front and the light-colored wood looks good there.

You'd probably have to sand and stain them. It looks like there's a clear coat on them.

Try Bar Keepers Friend. You can find it in just about any supermarket. It makes my stainless steel pans shine like new when they're discolored.

If its a old or deep stain, then it needs some work. Fresh stains are easier to take off
