Cleaning water stains out of inside?

[PepsiCollector]

What's the best way to clean out old water and iridescent stains from the insides of bottles? Thanks.

There aren't any rust stains, just those iridescent water stains. Would bar keepers friend and rice be enough? Could a person use copper bb's, or would they scratch the glass? Thanks.

Jeff , I started using the bar keepers too. But I use an electric drill and strips of scouring pad on a homemade wire. It works well for light stains. I think I read about it in one of Hemihampton's post. Mitch

I read that post before. My problem is, it's on a pepsi peanut bottle so I don't think the drill would reach all the areas. The outside of the bottle is near mint, so just want to shine up the inside. No dirt, no rust, just some like hard water stains and iridescent stains. When I fill the bottle with water, they disappear. - Jeff
