Things You Should Know
- Start by cleaning the area with soap and hot water. Use rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover on non-varnished and non-painted surfaces.
- Try baking soda or Bar Keeper’s Friend as a mild abrasive to scrub stains away. Use caution on porcelain sinks, as they can scratch the surface.
- For white porcelain, try bleach to remove stains. For colored porcelain, use hydrogen peroxide to get stains out fast.
