If you have scratches there is nothing yo ucan do to remove them. If they are like nicks there is paint you can buy to recolor the scratch.. It would be similar to scratch cover on furniture. I suggest that once you clean your sink well and get it like you want it. Give it a cover of paste wax. You can use floor paste wax or car wax to protect the finish of your sink. I like to clean my sink with Tilex. I spray the sink and let it sit for a few minutes. Coffee and tea stains are removed in just seconds. Also, the sink is disinfected. Use an old toothbrush to do around the faucets and sink rim. Clean inside the drain and put the strainer into the dishwasher once in a while to disinfect that. Once your sink is nice and clean, you'll really notice it. I've done this with my 30 yr old sink and couldnt be happier. Best of luck, Carol in PA
