Will this take old water stains off a stainless steel sink? Nothing else seems to work :/

I have had excellent results. Try this, use the powder mix with just a little water to make a paste. Use a scotch brite pad and start with little circles to larger circles with lite to med. pressure. It will remove the stain. However, if it is rust or corrosion, that might be deep in the stainless steel. Even stainless steel will rust with time, yo might have to work it for a long time to remove microscopic layers of the metal to reach clean metal. Then work with very light pressure to polish the metal to match the sink.

Works great! Use for stainless pans too. Mild enough for EAPG glass-old glass from 1780s. Removes water and rust plus grease. The dry powder of same brand also works.

Hi Doranda. I don't know for sure but Bar Keepers really works well. I even tried it in the toilet bowl and it removed the ring at the water line from hard water, so I would say it may work for you very well! Try it.

I'm not really sure, but it's worth a try. If it doesn't work, you may want to try silver polish.

I had a very old (probably 15+ years) stainless steel sink and this did help, but did not completely remove water spots. However, with newer stainless steel items (up to 4 years old) it does wonders. It may not completely remove, but nearly so in spots that have been sitting. On new spots (last 3-4 weeks), it completely removed. You must rinse off completely with CLEAN cloth and MUST be careful of stainless steel grain. Hope this helps!!

They cleaned my stainless steel sink beautifully, so I would think it would work just as well on your shower. I am amazed at the cleaning power of these cloths... from windows to greasy stoves to yucky bath tiles... takes a little bit of elbow grease sometimes, but well worth it and NO nasty chemicals!

It does take out rust. Use gloves and scrub hard. Use it all the time on my stainless sink.

I bought a stainless steel cleaning cloth found here on Amazon. You dampen it and wipe the canister then dry rub it. It has nice instructions and a free downloadable eBook that you can get on how to clean stainless steel.

you can try a bleach cleanser (not as harsh as straight bleach) - but I am not wild about bleach where there may be food and dishesthe honest answer is that I have a 3 part sink so that I try very hard to be sure coffee, wine, tomato sauce, (other high staining foods) down the middle where there is no mat and I avoid getting any of those types on drink/food on the plastic at all (when I serve spaghetti sauce, I take the plastic out of the sink)- it also helps to rinse anything off it as quickly as possible - they last much longer that way

It worked on regular stains and smudges. Never tried it on rust. Send an email to the manufacturer. The company has been around a long time, so they should know. Good Luck!

I googled cleaning for stainless steel, Martha Stewarts page says to clean it with soap water do not soak. Then use white vinegar on the stains that won't come off with soap and water. I tried it and it works fine. Then I rewashed cause I don't like the smell of vinegar!

I am sorry. I don't know the answer because my counter is dark in color. However, the spray is clear, so I wouldn't think it would stain. It does take away the white water stains I get on my counter by the sink. Hope that helps.

It works great for anything that is stainless steel. I have tried many cleaners and this is my absolute favorite!

I don't know if it works on sinks with hard water. If you have a lot of lime or calcium deposits I would guess you would want to use a product like Bar Keepers Friend. I primarily use the Weiman Stainless Steel Cleaner to remove finger prints from stainless steel appliances. If you have other stainless steel items I would say purchase the product for those items and then you will have a good use for the product if it doesn't work on the sink.

Yes it does remove rust stains. We have very hard well water and White Brite works great in our laundry.

My granite sink is still fairly new, so the stains I have had were not very challenging. The product did remove them, but overall I do not consider this a particularly powerful cleaning agent. You may need to add another cleanser.

I think it will. My daughter - in - law had some brown stains and rust spots and with some scrubbing the sink is spotless but it was stainless steel. Try to contact the manufacture of the product to see if they recommend this on porcelain.

I use it for craft sink. Still I keep a rubber sink mat in it and dry every time I am not a fan or stainless steel sinks but paint and dye have not stained it I do use barkeeper cleaner
