Hi, new to this group and hoping someone can help us. We recently
purchased a food processor. My wife made up a chili sauce using whole
chilies in the processor. Now the bowl [plastic] is stained. Washing and
soaking with dish washing detergent is not getting rid of the stain. Has
anyone here had experience with this and successfully been able to
remove the stain.
Any advice gratefully appreciated.

Personally, I think it's better to live with stains that will
eventually wear off than it is to scratch up the bowl with overly
abrasive materials. -aem

Sunlight. The stain has penetrated the plastic,
and no abrasive or chemical bleach will be effective
without causing worse damage.

Oxygen bleach, or even hydrogen peroxide, may help to oxidize the stain and
will not hurt the plastic. Do not use chlorine bleach (Clorox).

You will have to live with it...eventually, it will come off. Next
time....spray the interior with Pam.

Oh...did you try Dawn dish soap. It can do some amazing things.

Hi Wayne,

Is that stuff available in your area? I ask because I cannot
find it any longer, and have heard that it may no longer be
distributed at all.

Thanks,

Wow!! So many replies all so quickly. Thank you all and with my
apologies. I thought the stain was from chilies. It was from curry, my
wife later told me. Even stranger, I'm just now making a cheese cake.
Processed the biscuits and butter in the bowl for the crust then cleaned
it. The 'curry' stains washed out. Still remained on the white plastic
of the cutting blade shaft though. My wife is now laughing and looking
forward to curry flavoured cheese cake.

Kenneth, I bought 2 bottles a couple of months ago, so I assume it's still
out there,. However, as fast as things change, it could be off the shelves
by now.
