Stainless Steel Sink Scratch Removal

[jack bacon]

Somehow I scratched the bottom of my new stainless steel laundry sink. Don't know if it was from the dog's toenalils while getting a bath or some grout that was wiped up that fell in while grouting the tile backsplash.

Any ideas? polishing compound?

Thanks,

Jack

I hope that other offer their advise for this also but our kitchen sink got major scratches on the "divider" I used 400 or 600 Wet-or-Dry sandpaper with the grain direction. I thought that it looked pretty good.

At the factory they use a flapper wheel. I think you're going to find that SS sinks don't stay perfect long.

Watch the wheeler dealer episode were they refinish the delorean....you will know wht to do after that.

Waste of time. Sounds like you are OCD (no offense, really) but I'd let it "scratch up" and in a year, if you have scratched it more, polish it up best it can and go on with life. Do a once a year serious cleaning and polishing. Otherwise you waste your time polishing it every time it gets a scratch or scuff.

Leave it until the first scratch is unnoticeable among all the others.

Lol. Is there anyone on GJ who isn't. About something? Really?

I liked this one the best!

It's gonna happen a lot… but, my kitchen sink always looks perfect after a scrungy pad and comet cleanser.

I don't worry about the utility sink, like kingcreek said, scratches are great camo for scratches.

Wire wool and a good metal polish, sounds harsh but it really really isn't.

Always just use green Scotch-Brite pads.
