Dishwasher Makes Stains/Marks on Dishes
Comments (2)Do the grey marks follow a line that look sort of like cracked glass? You might have to hold the plates up to the light to check. Sometimes the glaze is bad on plates and hairline cracks form. Water gets down to the core, where the porcelain/china/stoneware soak it up, causing grey lines that often look a bit like tempered glass that is broken. Ask me how I know about this. But that was only one set of dishes out of several, where I've ever had that happen. If that's the case, it's a bad finish on the dishes and not the dishwasher's fault. But, possibly amplified or accelerated by the hot water inside a dishwsher....See MoreI'd like to find white dishes that will stay white!
Comments (28)I am reviving this thread, as I am looking to replace/upgrade my everyday stoneware dishes. Was thinking I wanted to get plain white, but while shopping did find I was drawn to the colourful stoneware dishes... Part of the reason I wanted to replace my current set was the grey (Now I know from cutlery) marks all over the dishes. From reading this post, I cleaned them all off with BKF, magic eraser didn't work at all. Totally amazed at how new they all look, but many of the plates have chips under the rims, so am going to buy new. After doing research on the web for a few days, it is not 100% clear how to avoid those cutlery marks on dinnerware, various opinions blamed the SS count, ie whether is was 18/10, 18/8 etc. I have a feeling it is the stoneware that marks up the most. My porcelain and my good china dishes aren't marked. DH says it's because they're not used as much. He's right, they don't get much use, but I'm wondering if those of you who DO use porcelain or bone china daily still get grey marks. To make it even harder, just got an email today that Ikea is putting their Fargrik 6 place setting stoneware set on sale for $19.99! Maybe I just buy 2 sets of that for now, and wait to fall in love with some coloured/patterned set and buy when it's on sale. Still won't address the grey cutlery marks......See MoreMain Dishes WithOUT Tomatoes? *pic*
Comments (27)I don't see what eating tomatoes has to do with the breast milk. Kalie's digestive track digests the tomatoes. Her body and hormones produce the milk. It's a fallacy to believe that breast milk is made up of all the components of a mother's diet. Breast milk takes it's nutrition from mom not the contents of her stomach. I also breast fed exclusively for the first six months, Nursed DD for two years and DS into his 3rd year. The no water thing is to keep rubber nipples away from infants so they don't get lazy and refuse to nurse and to avoid filling their tummies with water instead of nutritional breast milk. I would look to the diapers being used, the laundering methods or the brand of disposables. it could be the wet wipes or the detergent used to wash the wash cloths if she's using those. If he's a good sleeper maybe he's staying wet too long if no one checks....See MoreStrange black "tire marks" on new white oak hardwood floors. HELP!
Comments (38)You are correct in that using a drum sander is not at all DIY friendly. But it's the only way to correctly sand a floor down to smooth and ready to finish. You will take years trying to do the same thing with an orbital. The rental rate for the sander is going to be more than hiring the right pro with the right equipment....See Morebiondanonima (Zone 7a Hudson Valley)
