How can I fix my green-stained stone in time for my upcoming show?

[IAmChefJ]

Ok, not the most brilliant thing I've ever done, but I used my green potholders to take my round stone with handles out of the oven, and now my stone handles are green too! It looks horrible, and I can't get it out. I've tried the baking soda paste, didn't do a thing... how can I get my stone dark quickly to try and cover this? I want to use it in a show Friday...

Virtually non-porous so it won't absorb orders, and easily dye-able to match the holiday season! Try one of our stones today!

Help!

That is odd - email the Test Kitchen about it.

Sounds odd, but try vinegar - it's my solution for EVERYTHING!

Do you mean green fuzz off the potholders or actual dye?

I've had dye come off on my stones as well. What worked for me was a baking soda/water paste. Slather it on there and let it sit for a good 5 minutes or so; repeat as needed. Good luck!

I should add if it is dye, burn those potholders!!! Nobody/nothing messes with my stoneware

 

[IAmChefJ]

Yes, potholders definitely TRASHED! It's dye, and the first thing I did was do a baking soda paste, which didn't work. Will go try vinegar now.

thats happened to me with scrub sponges. Hubby tried to get some spots off with it and the stone turned BLUE. The other one was Burgendy! LOL Oh well, they didn't come off with anything!
