Jean Myles on May 25, 2016Do they have lids ? Janet is right about using denture tablets Polident works better than other brands if they do have lids then turn the bottles over and let the mixture hang out for a couple of hours or or longer. If you can't get the water stains you could do some etching too the outside of the bottle to hide them. This is of course if they aren't valuable.Helpful Reply

Linda Santo on May 27, 2016I removed all the stains off my vintage glass insulators by soaking them in wood bleach (oxalic acid). Did an amazing job. Google cleaning insulators for instructions. It's the same stuff that's in Bar Keepers friend but stronger. I left a couple soaking over the winter by mistake and not any damage to the glass.Helpful Reply
