How do I remove rust stains from a kitchen sink?

Posted by admin
The Tonic asked:


I left an iron pan soaking in the kitchen sink and forgot about it. The pan left a small rust stain in the white cast iron sink. Is there anything I can do to get the stain out?

Comet/Ajax isn’t up to the task. Any suggestions? Thanks.

      Seems odd, I know, but try some WD-40. It’s a great rust remover!

      Try a product called “Zud”. It is a scouring powder that is tough on rust. There also used to be a product called “erusticator” but I don’t know if that is available retail any longer. You might check with your hardware store.

      One other is ceramabryte: I’ve never used this but heard it works.
