How To Clean A Stainless Steel Sink

For light cleaning jobs, you can try one of the following methods to clean a stainless steel sink.

First clean with hot soapy water, drain, then:

• Use a clean cloth soaked in some white vinegar and scrub the sink
• Sprinkle baking soda around the sink then scrub it down with a damp sponge

For tougher cleanup jobs:

• Linda Cobb (the Queen of Clean) suggests mixing 3 parts cream of tartar with 1 part hydrogen peroxide and then using a damp cloth, massage the mix into the sink. Let it dry then wipe with a damp cloth.
• 1 part vinegar, 1 part hot water, 1/2 part baking soda. Scrub mixture into sink using a damp sponge or cloth. Rinse well then dry with a clean cloth.
• I’ve also been told a tip to spray a layer of hot water over the sink to cover, then spray a layer of household ammonia. Cover sink with a plastic bag (stretched across the top with ends taped down on counter top) and leave overnight. Rinse the ammonia off in the morning then wash with hot, soapy water and dry with a clean cloth.

To make the sink shiny:

• Clean the sink well then rub in baby oil, or olive oil, or windex and dry with a clean cloth
