I&#8217;ve seen many tutorials on how to remove scratches from dishes, but the problem is that many of them use cream of tartar, which is $3-4 for a little tiny bottle. No thank you, I&#8217;ll keep that for my cookies or whatever recipe uses that. However, I did try the cream of tartar and it works, but I have found an even cheaper solution that works just as well. I bet you&#8217;ll never guess what is my magic dish scratch eraser is. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<h2>Remove Marks\u00a0from Dishes with Baking Soda<\/h2>\n<p>Okay I knew you would guess it, mostly because I use baking soda to clean everything, why should the dishes be different.<\/p>\n<h3>1.
