but it will also bleach the countertop. Baking soda will do squat. Ditto vinegar, peroxide, and ammonia. There are resurfacing kits for formica (basically paint) if you want to go that route.

Get an estimate on replacing the countertop with something more trendy. It usually doesn't cost an arm and a leg and could help the house sell.
