Dishwasher - Grey/silver stain on chinaware?
Question:Sometimes I have grey/silver stain on my white chinaware after using the dishwasher. The stain is NOT removable and burnt in the surface. Is the detergent to strong? Or is the quality of the chinaware bad? What I am doing wrong? Thanks for helping ... !
Answers:
Is it more of a blotchy stain or a series of grey marks that you are seeing on the dishes?
If its the latter ..these could be caused by aluminum pans, colanders, and silverware bumping up against the dishes during the wash cycle. It's also quite possible that the marks are being placed on the dishes before they are going in the dishwasher by your own silverware!
There's several thing you can do to remove these marks ~ the most environmentally safe is mixing up a paste of baking soda and use a little elbow grease. to remove the marks. If that doesn't work, Pfaltzgraff puts out a product called "Porcelain and Tile cleaner" which will get rid of those marks in about a minute.
sounds like the same thing i got on one of my colanders!! to me it looks like it had some kind of reaction with something in the dishwasher like the detergent of maybe something was touching off it cause that can give you rust marks on stainless steel things! to be honest i really have no clue how it got there or how to get it off!!!
good luck!!
