Vinegar is Good for Stains

Sometimes, we can't avoid the stains which pop up in our sinks. For these times, don't panic. Soak the stained area in vinegar and water. After about thirty minutes, scrub the area until cleaned. If the stain is persistent, soak the rag in vinegar and then scrub some more. Your stain will come up eventually!

Most women have baking soda in the kitchen. For a quick remedy for stains or a quick kitchen sink cleaning, make a mixture of baking soda and water. Make this into a paste and scrub your skin like there's no tomorrow! You will love how clean your white porcelain sink will be!
