# Removing Scratches From Stoneware
According to Pfaltzgraff, a maker of stoneware, this type of ceramic clay is shaped and hardened at over 2200 degrees F. Additionally a glaze coating is applied to give the stoneware added protection and a glazed appearance. The "scratches" seen on the surface of stoneware are marks from metal utensils that hit against the stoneware is actually harder than silverware metals. Therefore the marks made by metals can be removed from the surface.
