The denture tablets might well work..

Another cleaning solution for you.

JML and others make a block of something like memory foam which you can cut into pieces - advertised as "cleans everything"  which you wet and then use like an eraser.

Available from Wilkinsons and pound shops and works well on china cups in particular.

We got sick of cleaning our melamine mugs whilst away and now use regular ones - as I too thought tea and coffee tasted different from them.

Still like our melamine dinner plates and bowls though although our experiment with plastic cutlery led to a near riot one camp when OH couldn't cut his chicken !!!

Yes they do work, and very well. One tablet in each mug and topped up with water, leave to soak for a while and stains will be gone. I found that was the only thing that worked with mine, even neat bleach wouldn't bring the stains. I don't use them now anyway, I much prefer proper mugs - tea just doesn't taste as good in melamine ones.
