I'll try the bicarb slurry. I have citric acid too, could I do something with that?

Barkeepers Friend is citric acid. Try it if the alkali treatment doesn't work. Don't mix it with the alkali cos all you'll get is foam. While foam is nice it doesn't actually do anything much.

Barkeeps is oxalic - rhubarb acid

Says citric on the container in my cupboard. Still, if the concentration is similar should work the same.
