But the denture cleaner, as one mentioned, seems like a possibility too.

Also, there is a product at the auto store to clean headlights - but it's probably made for plastic. Depending on the emotional value, it'd probably be cheaper to buy new jars.

Leave the house while they soak. If they are etched, this will not help. By soapy water, I mean regular dish detergent, preferably Dawn. It gets out/off a lot of stuff other soaps won't.

It's usually caused by washing in the dishwasher - usually from soft water & too much detergent. This will not come off. So you either have to live with it or buy new jars. Sorry.
