Is it possible to redo the paint on my kitchen sink?
Thursday, May 22nd, 2008Cris O asked:
We have a normal porcelain kitchen sink. On that part between the double sinks, there has been some wear, such that some of the paint is rubbed off. Also, one of my kids went through this stage a few months ago of painting a whole lot with acrylic paint, and when he rinsed off his palette in the kitchen sink, he left a small spot now and again. It’s not that I didn’t notice this was happening - I did. But I thought that acetone would remove it. It didn’t. Neither do any of the scrubs or bleach. So now there are many many many small spots that are anywhere from very tiny to the size of a single drop. I could probably scrape them off, but that would remove the paint, too. My husband said that he does not think there is a way to repaint a porcelain sink w/o having it look like one of those unprofessional home repairs. Is there anything I can do about this?
