What does The Team Think, please?

When the FIL died we found quite a few tubes of steredent which fortunately
neither of us yet need for their intended purpose.
When a cup or mug begins to look a little grubby a tablet dropped in one
and left overnight brings it up clean.
But there will be nothing wrong using with bleach if it is well rinsed.

OTOH I knew an old marine engineer whose only hot drink was tea drunk black
in a what had Ben a red mug of some years vintage but now had an inside
like a coal bucket.
While a normal wash after use was acceptable woe betide anyone who even
thought about doing a deep clean or putting it through a dishwasher.
