I've googled and I haven't got white vinegar, denture cleaning stuff, or alka seltzer.

What can I do?

I painted the shelves in my utility room last week they look lovely my vases don't, and I don't want to put them back on there till they do.. And well they're currently making my dining room table look mucky!

Help please!

Washing powder? Do you mean you can't get your hand inside to scrub it, or just cleaning it normally isn't working?

Normal cleaning isn't shifting the white water marks, maybe I should use viakal?

Kettle descaler, toilet lime scale remover, any old vinegar, out of date jif lemon juice. Any of these will shift lime scale.

DH would then rinse with deionised fish tank water for a real sparkle, but that's just because I live in a mad house that has such things.

I've normal fish and chip shop vinegar or viakal... Will give these a go.

Thank you.

put dry rice inside the dry vase, turn and shake, it will polish off the coating in the inside.

Flash Bathroom - or Tesco version. Coat liberally, rinse, dry with kitchen towel.
