Do you have any porcelain that looks like this?

Scratchy

It’s unfortunate, but it’s not permanent!  You can easily remove these marks with a little help from Bar Keepers Friend.  The first time I tried to find Bar Keepers Friend in the store, I couldn’t.  Your best bet is to look near the powdered cleaners like Comet and such.

Shake a little out onto the dish, scrub lightly with a damp cloth/sponge, and just like magic… the marks disappear!

Clean

Yes, that really is the same plate!

It works on coffee mugs too.

It is not a permanent fix, as the marks will reappear as you use the dish.  However, it definitely helps keep your dishes looking nice 🙂
