Mine are the same mcm - mine are heading for 3 years but my second bowl is still nice and shiny at this stage as it hasn't had all that much use yet.

JD, do your blades 'brighten up" after you make a batch of the UK TMX site's lemon cleaner?

I didn't notice Marina - been some time since I made the last batch - but will pay more attention with my next batch.
