Off Topic: Fiesta Ware Utensil Marks
Completely off the topic of quilting—which is fine here too. :o) So chime in anytime with hints & tips on other subjects.
I have been threatening to replace all my Fiesta Ware dinner plates due to all the dark scratches on the surfaces from utensils, (cutting knives, forks, etc.) I have tried hand scubbing with various products–with minimal results. But, this morning I did a search on Google about this problem—-I guess Fiesta Ware and Phaltzgraft dishes are notorious for retaining utensil marks— there were a lot of tips on this common problem and I found the best solution yet was——!
"Bar Keepers Friend" cleanser and polish on a nylon scouring pad! Oh-My-Gosh! All the marks are gone, and the plates look shiny new! Wow! this stuff is great!

Thanks for the tip, Angie. I’m sure I can find a use for “Bar Keepers’ Friend”. Where did you find it?

Pam,
I found this product at my local Ace hardware, but have also seen it at Raley’s in the cleanser aisle along with the other cleanser (like Comet in the shaker can). I can get some for you. It works great in the kitchen sink, bathroom sink, tub—I’ve been busy! :o)

Angie I use this on my ceramic stove top and it works well and is very inexpensive. I buy mine at Safeway.
