How to get tea stains out of mug rugs
#11
I found a fabulous stain remover. One part dish soap I used Dawn Two parts Hydrogen peroxide. Mix together spread on stain let sit for a bit and wash. My husband had some stains on a shirt that I had almost put in the rag bag because I couldn't get them out. I used this and out they came. One of his favorite shirts saved. This also works on hard water stains on your plastic utensils and pans that are lovingly used. I'm not buying OxiClean again.

You could try soaking it in a solution of hot water & lemon juice. Just think what tea looks like if you add lemon, it lightens up doesn't it? Lemon juice is a great natural stain remover, very useful for delicate vintage fabrics. Alternate between soaking in lemon juice dilution & oxiclean solution. Between the two, they'll lift out most if not all of the stains.

I use Clorox for cup and glass cleaning as well. It really does remove tea and coffee stains and I would think that soaking your mug rugs in very diluted solution of Clorox and water would remove all stains. Also, Clorox II has a stain fighter and I love what it does for my colored clothes. It keeps everything looking new and bright. I've never had Oxiclean remove a single stain, your mileage may vary.
