How to Clean Your Kitchen Sink and Drain Effortlessly
Posted By Angi.com
Every kitchen sink has its own set of cleaning do's and don'ts. Before you clean, check your manufacturer’s instructions for proper cleaning techniques. Then, grab your gloves, clear your kitchen sink entirely, and follow these steps for a sparkling clean sink and drain:
Avoid using bleach or abrasive cleaners, which could damage stainless steel sinks. Instead, opt for dish soap, baking soda, and water.
Add warm water to the sink.
Sprinkle baking soda around the entire sink basin.
Add hot water and a dime-sized amount of dish soap to a sponge or microfiber cloth.
Scrub the sides of the sink basin, work towards the middle, and push residue into the drain.
Apply more soap and hot water to tackle tough grime.
Rinse down the entire sink with warm, clear water.
Take a clean, dry microfiber cloth and buff the sink until it’s dry and streak-free.
After cleaning with these tips you can feel good about your sparkling clean sink again in your Redding or Chico apartment. You may want to save these instructions to come back to as frequently as you feel your sink needs sprucing up.
Bonus: Have a stinky garbage disposal? This is an easy problem to solve with the basics like ice, bleach and vinegar. For tips on how to make your sink smell good, click here.
