This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Unfortunately haven't found that cheaply available in Finland. I know about it too. It's the only thing I haven't tried other than straight up sanding it

There's probably a local equivalent; looks like the primary "ingredient" is Oxalic Acid so a cleaner containing that would probably work just as well

So the legend of bar keepers friend is that it was invented after someone boiled a bunch of rhubarb greens and noticed it cleaned the pan. I reckon any green high in oxalic acid (the main ingredient in BKF) should do similarly enough to the actual product to let you know if it might work.
