Cleaning an Amex Cup

My work mug is an early Amex jobbie ( you can tell it is 4/5 years old as the corners still have the yellow sheeting). Used everyday it is now a nightmare to get clean. I know I can bleach it to make it white but it is brown within days. I religiously scrub it when making tea and have now taken to dumping a dollop of Swarfega into it to try to abrade the brown deposits out of it whilst using a scouring pad, still no luck!

Should I try a product to remove hard water deposits or just buy a new mug? Maybe PB would like to donate a new one, especially if we are throwing money around like confetti on luxury items from South America?:sick:

Steradent might work?

But Coke left overnight should shift it too.

If you stick it in a dishwasher all the stains will disappear. It's scratching the glaze with scouring pads that enable the stains to build up in the first place.

Use Milton Baby Sterlising fluid, seems to work fantastically on stained mugs.

Tomato Soup is amazing at getting rid of that shit.

Buy one of those little squeezy tube things and enjoy your tea stainey, soupy lunch and a clean mug afterwards!
