Have you tried Mr clean eraser or degreaser type cleaner I would think also if it is a stainless steel tub you could use that stuff to clean like silverware or use wadding cloth (by the way that stuff works great to get melted velcro off the bottom of a iron jsut ask how I knwo)

Mine is that same beautiful blue color. It doesn't rub off so I don't worry about it.

i used to have this problem in my washing machine from hand dyeing fabric but i just use synthrapol and its never happened again.

never bothered me. i like blue.

I had one that was very patriotic, the stains were blue and red :wink:

:thumbup:

I got some unknown stains in my dryer once, but nothing
on the clothes. I got the stains out with 91% rubbing
alcohol and then damp wiped the alcohol off. Came out
right away.
