Jeremy has the demeanour of someone who thinks that if he says he cant remember then he cant be found to have done anything right or wrong, one way or another How handy for his clients that he has no memory for anything & never writes anything down as anyone who knows him knows

Also, did you catch his going rate for advice Or is it consultancy $20k per month.

Advice wanted on bathtub cleaning:
My partner dumped some cleaner in the tub and left it sitting there for months. The cleaner itself cleaned up easily and washed down.
But whatever unknown dirt and grime was in it, did not.
I have tried:
1) Using regular tub cleaner and scrubbed with a cleaning brush.
2) Using a paste of baking soda, a little dish soap, and water. Left it on for 15 minutes. I then tried a regular brush, a motorized brush with a stronger pad, and the abrasive side of a dish sponge.
I believe my tub is porcelain.
