Are you ready to combat the chrome and get geared up to defeat the grungy stainless steel sink? Well, we want to share with your our 3-step process on how to clean a stainless steel sink and the best part is, there are no expensive cleaners – only simple ingredients found at home already!
I love this method as you walk away with it looking like a brand new sink. Mine is 10+ years old, has plenty of scratches and dings. I can’t say that I treat my sink nicely, as I don’t. I work it hard, things get thrown in, things get left sitting in… etc. It is a well used kitchen appendage! So it is always a joy to see how she shines and the smile on her face after this great cleaning – it’s a day at the spa for her. 🙂
So let’s get this party started and get our sinks clean with a few minutes of work and a few ingredients. Think of this as like a car wash – the supreme wash with the cleaning, buffing and spot-free rinse, and the waxing!
Well, that’s what we are going to do.
Step 1 for Stainless Steel Sink Cleaning
Supplies:

The dirty water left from scrubbing the small side of my sink – this is evidence it works well 🙂
Here’s the results after step #1 of stainless steel sink cleaning. My camera does not do this justice. In person, the difference already is amazing!
After Step #1 of 3-Step Stainless Steel Cleaning – already a big difference!

This is what you might consider your spot removal and spot-free rinse step.

Step 3 of Stainless Steel Sink Cleaning
This is what you might consider your shammy shine/waxing when you wash your car! Well, we want that stainless steel to shine as well! This also gives your sink a bit of nourishment.
Supplies:
To finish up, I will use a towel to dry it up and then give it a nourishing shine with oil! Olive oil or baby oil is best. Simply pour oil on a rag and wipe down the sink.
Then your sink will shine and be happy and you will be too!
Here’s the before and after next to each other so you can see the awesome difference. Again, camera’s (and my poor photography skills) do not give this justice, but it is beautiful instead of a dull stainless – it’s shining!
*One final note, you may have noticed my sink, an extra big sink with a small sink instead of it being divided in half. Let me just say I HATE this sink design. It looks like it would be quite cool and functional – but the truth is…. the small sink is useless! You can’t wash dishes and rinse reasonably without water going everywhere, it is too small for holding strainers and cleaning food (which is why I get a lot of buildup on the edges as seen in the toothbrush picture – the water always leaks out over the sides!), water not only spills over the counter tops, but onto the floor and has been a real pain. If you have a choice, I would recommend not going with a sink like this. When I change one day – I will steer clear of this useless design.
