Can you use these on a stainless steel sink or will it scratch the finish?

I use them on my stainless steel sink & cooktop, with a little BarKeeper's Friend stainless steel cleaner, but I always make sure to scrub with the grain. Everything looks like new. I'm afraid if you were to scrub against the grain or in circles, you might leave scratches.

I have it I would suppose it would scratch the pot but you dont really lay it on the rack that way. So if you do not lay the non stick part on it it should be completely fine. ps i like mine and it took forever to find one to fit my sink

Laura I would be afraid to use them on your finish. I have wood floors that are not prefinished. They are more for cleaning than removing scratches. I don't really know but they might damage the finish.

It does scratch some, nothing really bad. It comes with grates and I keep them in. I do wish I had gone for the single sink, because large pots fit but they can be snug and that is what causes my scratches.

I'm not sure because I don't have a sink to test it. But when I did have a stainless sink, I used SoftScrub and it wasn't bad.

I would not use it on stainless steel, it would scratch it!If you read the directions it tells you.

I accidentally left mine in the sink over night and they did rust. If you take care of them you should not have the problem I did, but mistakes happen...

Going on two years with our sink and the scratches are minor. Not what I'd consider an issue. We really love the sink. We do use the grates in the bottom most of the time.

I have brushed nickel on mine. If you are one of those people who have to completely match then that's what I'd suggest. The sink is a nice matte finish...so chrome would dress it up if that is the look you want. It's a sturdy, beautiful sink for the money.Good luck!

You can't remove scratches. You can prevent scratches by purchasing a sink grid--about $85 and well worth the money. It keeps your items about 1" off the bottom of the sink and I am so happy I purchased one.

I bought a set of the Henckels International Everedge Plus Stainless Steel knives at a thrift store today. They don't seem to have ever been used, but all knives had spots of rust on them. Low-grade stainless WILL rust. DO NOT use a plastic scrubbie or the scrubbie back of a sponge because that hard plastic will scratch the metal. I used ZUD cleaner on a wet paper towel, with a lot of elbow grease, and got all the rust spots off without scratching the metal or the writing on the blade. I also use the ZUD on my good stainless pans to keep the bottoms looking like new.

I haven't used it on my "Doughmakers" pans but have had great success using "Barkeepers Friend" (like comet but for stailnless steel) on my stainless steel pots and pans and even my sink. Won't scratch either!

I don't really know. I wonder if it might scratch the stainless steel or dull the finish. I'm sure the company could give you a better answer. I sure do like it on everything that I've used it on.

Brushed chrome would work but why not the stainless strainer? That's the one I used on my stainless sink.

Yes, you can. I used metal utensils in all my hard anodized pots and pan and never had any problems with scratches.

I do use BKF in my stainless steel sinks however mine are the brushed finish and are not shiny. Works great on faucets and handle. Hard water spots disappear.

I have not noticed scratches as it is stainless. I do not throw pots and pans into the sink but I expect to see normal wear from daily use. Bottom grid keeps the sink bottom looking like new.
