PG tips seem to have increased tannin in their bags,consequently my tea spoons have become badly stained, not shifted by the dishwasher - any tips on how to bring them up to their normal shine? Thank you for replies

These pads are available everywhere. Use the harder, green side for quick results.

Would dilute bleach ruin them ? I recall my late mother getting tea stain from her teacups, using it.

We regularly soak our cutlery overnight in a bleach solution, OG, no problems to report after the first thirty years.

I just rub my teaspoons with the scourer and they clean up. Consider changing brands, PG tips are a thing of the past in our house. Buy a selection of own brands and known brands and have a fun tasting session. I almost guarentee that people won't chose PG tips as their favourite!

i put mine into solution of washing powder in cup for about 20 minutes and hey ho - sparkling clean with gentle rub of dishcloth. cups have to have bleach treatment. What does this do to our stomachs?
