Pour some vinigar and fill the pot with water. Let stand for a while. Rinse. It will shine like new. If the brown spots are rust then I would buy myself another pot.<br><b>References : </b><br> White spots are salt residue. Pour some vinigar and fill the pot with water. Let stand for a while. Rinse.

I'd get rid of them. If they are solid steel, get some steel wool, and polish those pans until they have almost a mirror finish. Wash them out with soap and a soft scrubbing pad after use. NEVER put them in the dishwasher.<br><b>References : </b><br> If they are steel plated aluminum, the dark spots mean the steel has worn down, and the aluminum is showing. I'd get rid of them.
