CorningWare dishes are made from an ultra-durable hybrid glass-ceramic material called Pyroceram, allowing them to resist extreme temperature changes without cracking. These vintage dishes require careful cleaning and restoration to maintain their value. Cleaning involves using a solution of white vinegar, water, and citric acid to remove stubborn stains. Recommendations include boiling this solution with the dish submerged for at least five minutes, followed by gentle rubbing with steel wool. An alternative cleaner, Bar Keepers Friend, is also effective for removing stains from CorningWare.
To make vintage CorningWare shiny-new, you'll need white vinegar, water, and citric acid. Its acidic qualities lift off stubborn, baked-in stains without using harsh chemicals.
An article in the The Times Colonist recommends filling a large pot with 4 cups water, 3 cups vinegar, and 2 tablespoons citric acid to clean CorningWare.
After soaking in the cleaning solution, stains can be gently rubbed off using steel wool, or a sponge if looking for a less abrasive tool.
Bar Keepers Friend is another product that can make stained CorningWare look brand new, effectively tackling rust, grease, tarnish, and more.
