help! need a good heavy duty cleaner!

Could it be rust?

I've seen The Works recommended but haven't tried it-  Dollar Store and WalMart.

I wonder about dishwashing detergent.  or ammonia (be careful about mixing ammonia with other chemicals.)

Maybe try baking soda? Make a loose paste and let it sit a few minutes.

No. Its definitely not rust. I have tried the works. I was surprised that didn't work! Usually it is amazing!

I wondered about this too, but I'd be sure to check the container before trying it.

Don't use anything abrasive on it, since it would be scratched.
