Carbona makes a color run remover that might work, as it has a pretty good reputation. Drying the jeans may have heat-set the color, but you have nothing to lose at this point. I've found Carbona products at JoAnn's fabric stores and grocery stores. Good luck! Here is a link that might be useful: Carbona Color Run Remover

In case this thread is still helpful to folks, we used Maipei's newer item: ULTRACOLOR PLUS MAX in Pure White. It comes in two colors (pure white and black). Advertised as brightest white on the market and it is indeed very white! We did a new shower with white subway (daltile artic white) and it looks great with this grout. We used maipei frost color on the marble floor (which looks way lighter than the maipei pamphlet shows) and the two colors and materials look nice together. Good luck grouting everyone!

Yelenatulip, sorry I just checked the site tonight. Were you wanting to know the cost of cutting the butcher block or the price of the bb? My husband cut mine for free ;-) He's done all the work except for the electrical which was done by my son-in-law. I like the simple, straight edge and I think it looks just right for the farmhouse look I want. jeannema, I love the way your bb has aged. We're waiting on our Waterlox which was supposed to have arrived today from Kansas City...The store I ordered it from here had never had any inquiries about it. I am not surprised. Formica still rules here, with Corian being the 'new' thing. I haven't decided if I want to stain the bb or not. The Waterlox site stated that it could be done using a 4 to 1 ratio. I don't want to ruin it, but I do prefer shades of brown to red although your wood doesn't seem too red for me at all.

Rust stains are very hard to completely remove. That is a lot of rust! I'd try to clean it first, see if you can really get it completely free of the rust stains. That in itself won't be easy. If you can get it all cleaned up, and if you can determine that the tub itself isn't rusting the next decision to me would be keep it and work around the pink, or replace it with white. ( I am assuming the rust comes from iron in the water, maybe?) Tub refinishing does look really good when they finish it, over time though, there is no way it can be as durable a finish as a factory porcelain over cast iron (or steel) tub. I'd probably replace it if it were me, I don't think it will clean up 100%. We had iron in our well water in our first house, we'd get the occasional rusty stains, not nearly as bad as yours, but they were difficult to clean. But its worth a try. Of course, if your well water has iron, you will probably be dealing with rust stains fairly often.
