How to Clean Your Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink
by Tim Broder

Description: Clean your stainless steel sink with these homemade household cleaning products.

Your kitchen sink most likely sees a flurry of activity throughout the day. Whether it's dirty dishes or meal preparation, your kitchen may be a small scale Grand Central station. That is why keeping it clean and sanitized is a priority.

Cleaning your stainless steel kitchen sink is easy and can be done using homemade or commercial products. Not all commercial or homemade cleaning products are created equal, however. Stainless steel sinks have special cleaning requirements and should not be cleaned using abrasive products. Use of strong acid based cleaners, such as bleach, should also be avoided. With a stainless steel kitchen sink, it is best if you clean it daily with a soft sponge. A commercial window cleaner or all-purpose cleaner may be used. You can also use a homemade vinegar and water solution to clean the sink. The vinegar and water solution is also great for removing any spots or stains that may be present in the sink.

Another popular homemade cleaner is a baking soda solution. This cleaner removes spots and stains effectively and is not abrasive. In a small measuring cup, mix two teaspoons of baking soda and fill the rest of the cup with warm water. Allow the baking soda to dissolve. Dip a dampened sponge in the solution and proceed to clean the sink using small circular motions. When you are finished cleaning, rinse the sink thoroughly.

Your kitchen sink is the heart of your home. Taking the time to clean it properly, whether you plan to use commercial or homemade products, will ensure its longevity and the health of your family.
