Porcelain sinks are notorious for scratching and staining. Many think you need to grab harsh chemicals, like bleach, to really get it clean and white again, but there is an easy method that completely whitens, brightens, and cleans a porcelain sink with no harsh chemicals and minimal work.

Begin by rinsing the sink to wet down the bottom and sides. Once the bottom and sides of the sink are wet, plug the drain and sprinkle on some baking soda. You just need a fine layer of baking soda; no need to heap it on.
Scrub the sink using a sponge. This is like a magic stain eraser. The brownish color in the sink started disappearing before my eyes and was soaked up in the baking soda. This did not require a ton of scrubbing at all. (Yay!) Now, add a small amount of hydrogen peroxide to the sponge and scrub some more.
The scratches will start to disappear and the sink will whiten up. You will have baking soda clumps in the sink. No worries; this is normal. After thoroughly scrubbing with the hydrogen peroxide, rinse everything down the drain.
Before and after pictures are always a good way to see the results, so here you go.
As I mentioned, I tried an alternate method using equal parts Cream of Tartar and Vinegar. I scrubbed and scrubbed, and while it worked a little, it was nothing like the method described above. Here’s the process on the other side of the sink.
The total amount made was 3 ounces, based on 2 oz. of Baking Soda and 1 oz. Hydrogen Peroxide.
This means that for 21 ounces of sink cleaner from Amazon for $7.99, you could make 21 ounces of your own for 70¢, saving $7.29.
