If the stains don't run with just spraying the 409 on the stains, then take a sponge that has the non-stick cookware scrubber on one side, wet the sponge with water and wash the cup with the 409 spray using the scrubber side of the sponge. The stains will wash away with very little effort. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cleaning Coffee and Tea Stains from Cups Post By David (Guest Post) (05/12/2007) I tried Jane's toothpaste method. It worked like a charm!!! The toothpaste I used contained baking soda too, which could have made the results all the more amazing.

Drop one in the dirty cup filled with water, and Voila! Completely clean in a few minutes.

No scrubbing with anything harsh that might damage the surface of the cup or mug.

I have used a gentle scrubbing pad (not SOS), soft scrub and even have used bleach to no avail. Thanks in advance for your solutions. Happy Thanksgiving to you all and please take a few minutes to realize that even though this good old world has a lot of new problems and some of us out there this year are down in the dumps we still have a lot to be thankful for. Joe's Girl Answers: Vinegar I read over the CorningWare site and they say to clean with vinegar or nonabrasive cleanser. I remember they used to recommend Bon Ami which is a cleanser that can be found in the same section as Comet. You could also try baking soda. It will take off many stains and not scratch the surface. Susan Soak in With Vinegar Overnight This is in response to Joe's Girl, who is having trouble removing stains from her CorningWare coffee cups. She should try soaking the cups in straight vinegar, overnight. That should take out the stains. Tony Baking Soda This is for Joe's girl wanting to know how to remove coffee stains off her CorningWare. Dip a damp cloth in baking soda and rub on the stains. Will not scratch and will remove the stains. This is good also for removing those burned stains on the edges of glass baking dishes. Connie I would try making a paste with baking soda and let them sit over night. Liz A paste of baking soda takes these stains out very easily and with no damage. Charlotte Dear Joe's Girl I can usually get these out by rubbing with a damp dishcloth and a little baking soda. Good luck! Pat Corning Cleaner & Conditioner Corning makes a cleanser that removes the rust marks from utensils & also from hard water deposits. It is called "Corning Cleaner & Conditioner" Specially formulated by Corning to Clean, Polish, Protect. Post by hskper Bleach I use a weak bleach solution in my CorningWare cups as well as with other ceramic cups and coffee pots. I soak over night and the next morning every thing is bright and clean. No scrubbing or rubbing. Post by mary (Guest Post) Dawn Power Dissolver I recently bought an old CorningWare coffee pot with coffee stains so bad that baking soda would not remove them.

By Robin from Washington, IA Feedback: Stubborn Tea and Coffee Stains To get rid of stubborn tea and coffee stains in mugs add a good shake of detergent powder to a large bowl of water and leave the mugs in it overnight. By Heather from Vermont Comet I've also found that it works well to use a tiny amount of cleanser, such as Comet, on those stains. It takes them off immediately and leaves a shining cup. Post by Nancy from PA Bleach and Water You can all so put a little Bleach and full up with water. Wait for about 1/2 hr or so and it should be clean. You can all so put it in plastic cups. Then wash with soap and water. Post by Judy from AR Clorox Clean-up Clorox Clean-up spray works great! I use it on my coffee pot all of the time, as well as my iced tea pitchers that get stained. Post by Tawnda Palmolive Super Scrub Gel Paste I use Palmolive Super Scrub Gel Paste when washing my dishes on those coffee and tea stains. Works great and I don't have to leave the dishes to do later. You can find this in the dishwashing item dept. in your grocery store or Walmart. 17oz. blue bottle with white cap. Post by badwater Salt The very best way to remove tea stains from a cup is to sprinkle table salt in the cup and rub with a soft cloth. My Mother passed this on to me and I have been using this method for fifty years. It works wonders and is not caustic.
