This is another one of those times that you are very fortunate that you live in the United States!

All you have to do is go to your local supermarket and visit the laundry aisle ...

Look for Bar keepers Friend (powder).

After you've made your purchase, and have taken your magic powder home, take your magic powder and your most challenging Klicky into the kitchen.


Thanks for all the advice from everyone.  I'll be on the lookout for this.

I now have testimony.

Thanks again Richard!  "Bar Keeper's Friends" ($1.67 from Target) really does let the paint rub off on your finger.  I tried using a rag first, but that took forever.  You almost have to apply direct finger.  The stuff is pretty gentle on the hands, though.  It made a hangnail burn, but after a washing, my skin wasn't dry, tender, or anything.

I think it is some sort of baking soda mix, so it is less harsh than comet or anything like what I expected.
