Show ' It Makes Cents By VI JUDGE BLAKE Dear Vi: Do you know any way to get stains out of a porcelain bathtub that has been used for a water trough? We've tried bleach, household house-hold scouring powder and kerosene but brown stains caused by decaying decay-ing leaves still remain. We would like very much to install this tub in our new home it's a real antique if only we can get it cleaned up. Richard Denning Try a paste of cream of tartar mixed with peroxide? Scrub it in and let it stand for a few minutes, then rinse. Ascorbic acid (5) mixed with water will usually banish ban-ish rust stains. Use with care it's poison. Moreover, it could damage the porcelain, so rinse it off quickly. You might also try good old baking soda. In fact, "Try soda first" should be a household motto It cleans so many things.
