How The Teabag Can Mess With You....

[rsmith6621]

Wife and I could not figure out why all of our dishes had some black sandy garbage on them on Tuesday after running the dishwasher,after an inspection I found the culprit,ONE SINGLE TEABAG, so I cleaned it out and reran the machine. Wednesday morning I woke up and went out opened the dishwasher and even after a heavy scrub of the dishes they still had TEA on them so another intense scrub removing the filter and running the dishwasher empty. I hand washed the dishes the filter and tonight ran a new load and guess what....there is still TEA particles on the dishes.

I could only think after this, this is what the TEABAGGER MOVEMENT IS LIKE ON AMERICAN POLITICS.....it is just DAMN hard to get rid of.

1. get some ZEP calcium lime and rust remover

CLR might work, but I like ZEP better. Put some on a rag an wipe your dishes with it. The dishwasher detergent sometimes doesn't rinse off and leaves a cloudy film on my glass and silverware. ZEP always gets it off. Your teabag particles probably trapped in the film and wont come off with soap and water.

2. Half a cup of bleach

Run it on a short cycle. Not much stands up to hot bleach.
