This project was so quick and easy, I finished it in the intermission of a movie we were watching. Hubby decided he needed to run to the store for something sweet, and I thought, "Ooh, I'll do my project quick!" I'd picked out this one earlier in the day. My sink, while not nasty looking, had developed that strange brownish color that sinks tend to get, especially if like me you try to stay away from harsh chemicals.
Here's a shot of the before. I wish I could capture the true essence of that brown film in my sink, but my camera has it's limitations. You can see all that brown crud that builds up in the seam around the drain, and a couple of odd don't-know-where-they-came-from brownish lines.
The pin's idea is simple: Scrub your sink with baking soda and salt. Like the pinner, I've tried baking soda in the past with less than stellar results. Apparently the salt aids the scrubbing and eliminates that weird baking soda film you get post wipe-down. I didn't have any sponges on hand, so I just used a cleaning rag and had at it.
And here's what happened. EW! This is just from one side of the sink, too. So even my not-so-dirty sink was WAY dirtier than I thought.
I was so happy with the results of my super shiny sink! This idea is a win-win-win - it's quick and easy, uses products that should already be on hand, and yields amazing results!
