Rust Stains in a White Sink

RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By Chele (Guest Post) Toothpaste and baking soda work great! It also worked for rust stains on my counter top. Just put the toothpaste on the stain first, then rub a bit of baking soda on top to make a paste. Leave on for a couple of minutes, scrub a bit, and it's gone! And these were old rust stains that I had tried removing various ways! Posted on 11/13/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By mm in dc (Guest Post) I just used toothpaste. Left it on for a few minutes and rubbed off. It worked like a charm and I didn't have to buy anything new! My rust stain was new, though, so this may not be as helpful for older stains.

It is a brown plastic bottle with a white cap. Look for it at Home Depot, Menard's, Lowe's. Put some on a soft white cloth and rub.

After reading a few posts, I found out about BarKeepers Friend. I let it sit in for about 5 minutes, scrubed and rinsed. I didn't even have to scrub hard, it all just came off! I was amazed :) Posted on 01/22/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By Patty D (Guest Post) Thanks to reading about "The Works" on your site, my sink came clean. The rust disappeared with a minimal amount of effort. The cost was little for such wonderful results. Thank you again.

Purchased at Dollar General for a buck or two. Great Stuff! Posted on 02/12/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By Allen (Guest Post) Rust in sinks, bathtubs, etc. is usually caused from a bacteria that grows in the hotwater heater. You can find out more from a hotwater heater manfacturer. I learned this from information I found on the http://www.hotwater.com/index.html website. You can clean it but if you don't correct the problem then the rust will return. Posted on 01/30/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By Oscar (Guest Post) "The Works" is the best I've used. It's far better that Lime Away. Use heavy rubber gloves! I've used "The Works" for toilets (great job removing tough rings), for tub and shower (removing mineral deposits), window cleaner. I've not used "ZUD" yet, but want to try it. I was told it would remove rust spots that are appearing on my oneida flatware when it comes out of the dishwasher.

Keep the water running or this stuff may eat into the porcelain....I don't know for sure, but it sure was the answer to my prayers when I needed to remove years worth of rust from a double shower and various sinks in the house. No scrubbing. Posted on 08/28/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By (Guest Post) I had the same problem in our old farm house tub when we moved in (from rust). I bought a bottle of The Works tub/shower cleaner at Rural King or Dollar General has it too-less then $4. Every time I walked by I would spray some on the stain, it eventually just ate it off. Took maybe 1/2 the bottle, stain had been there a loooooooooong time. Just keep letting it soak. Make sure to rinse it really good and wash with some soap after. I've used this product on lots of things and it's always worked. The Works for the toilets works great too. Good luck:) Posted on 08/28/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By Ann (Guest Post) I've used a product called Lime Away with good results, of course a lot of elbow grease and a good brush along with it. Posted on 08/27/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By Jo Bodey (256) Contact Rub gently with 'wet and dry' sandpaper. It may have a different name in the USA but any sandpaper with a grit of 600 or greater. As the name suggests it can be used with water and does not damage the surface. It can also be used on 'toilet rings'. Much less toxic and cheaper than buying chemicals. Regards Jo Posted on 08/27/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By Faithful (1) Contact I have usede a product called "ZUD", it comes in a can like comet..and it works great. You can even make a paste and let it sit on your stains. Posted on 08/27/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By Michaela (Guest Post) Toilette bowl cleaner and a brush.. Be sure to use gloves when scrubbing or squirt on and let sit overnight. Then brush and rinse with lots of water. Posted on 08/27/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rust Stains in a White Sink By Katie (Guest Post) If the stain really is rust, unfortunately bleach will set it. So it may be too late to do anything. It's usually safe to try something like baking soda as an abrasive scrub if you aren't sure if something is rust. Sorry not too much help now! Posted on 08/27/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse
