Will just one suffice for cleaning off stains that have sat in it for possibly decades? I've tried vinegar, dish soap, and denture cleaner so far and it's not giving up yet.

A couple minutes of shaking and the dried port stains were gone from a fine heavy leaded decanter... thanks Posted on 03/15/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cleaning an Antique Crystal Decanter By Graham (Guest Post) You should superglue a small piece of very fine grade sandpaper to the back of a wasp. Drop the wasp into the decanter and shake a couple of times. In its angry and disoriented state, the wasp is sure to rub against your stain, thereby providing a gentle abrasive action. Editor's Note: Good luck gluing the sandpaper to the wasp ; ) Posted on 10/02/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cleaning an Antique Crystal Decanter By Sandy from MN (Guest Post) Put crushed ice and salt in the decanter and swirl around...this will act as a scrubber and take care if it all! This also works well for coffee pots with a narrow opening! Good Luck!

If it is mineral or hard water spot it should be gone.

Shake it really good. That should give you a good scrubbing action.

If that doen't work, push a dryer sheet into the neck and soak in water.

Fill the decanter to 1/2" above the stained area and plop a tablet in. Let it sit overnight. Repeat again the next morning if necessary. Be sure the water is not above lukewarm so that any defects in the glass itself won't result in breakage.

It always works well for me. Just leave it for awhile(I leave it overnight) Hope this helps you.
