I found the other 3 on Etsy today but they have the same black marks. I went ahead and purchased them to complete the set to put in my kitchen only after I searched and found your tip on how to clean the marks off. Thanks much!

We bought one such dish yesterday ($2) to be our guinea pig for cleaning (or attempts at cleaning). We are glad to experiment with gentle action on a small area and have available (or could get) almost any type of cleaning powder/solution (Bar Keepers Friend, Bon Ami, etc., etc.). Is there a list online of all the various attempts (vinegar, WD-40, acetone, etc., etc.) at cleaning off that white residue (maybe I'm hoping for too much) so we can avoid the obvious cleaning mistakes (not wanting to add a new mistake to a previous mistake).<br />Kind regards, Matt JamesMJBloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08964051503368016481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3097748844135258151.post-30023921157697842822010-01-09T21:46:31.665-07:002010-01-09T21:46:31.665-07:00I have a small casserole dish in that same pattern...I have a small casserole dish in that same pattern.

I love pyrex, and could kick my butt with heavy metal boots for getting rid of (at a yard sale)some casserole dishes many years ago, both clear and white with green flowers. WTF was I thinking? I even had a pyrex coffee pot, but traded it for a stainless steel pot. Again, WTF was I thinking? And bon ami is a must have, or Bar Keeper, which is basically the same thing.Wander to the Waysidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056931538024315352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3097748844135258151.post-28763003774759891982009-09-29T06:59:22.023-06:002009-09-29T06:59:22.023-06:00You absolutely crack me up!
