How can I remove stains from my sink?
It's an old sink, likely from the 1940's, mounted to the wall. This is a rental so I imagine every product under the sun has been used on it without harm.
I've tried comet (a powder like ajax or bon ami), bleach, dish soap, salt on half a lemon, vinegar and salt, and lysol gel. I want to buy a magic eraser tommorow and try that, but do you know of anything else I can try?
It's like a pale greyish blue colour, maybe mouthwash or toothpaste or makeup or some combo of those. Any ideas?
funny i am moving thats why i want to remove it. so many awesome answers. i'm going to test the bleach tonight cuz i love how it smells.
Good old fashioned pure bleach. Soak a rag and leave it on the stain. Try filling the sink to above the stain and adding a quart or so of bleach. Leave overnight.
