The Correct Way to Clean Your Kitchen Sink

The sink is one of the focal points of your kitchen. Which is a shame, because it’s usually the dirtiest part of your kitchen. You can’t help it – all the dirty dishes go in the sink, and if you have a garbage disposal, the waste can even go in your sink. And we all know that things tend to accumulate. The longer the dishes and food scraps sit in the sink, the more unpleasant they look and smell. An easy solution? Keep your sink clean! Clever, I know. If you think that’s easier said than done, check out the video below. It contains some helpful tips for keeping your kitchen sink clean at all times.

The biggest secret to keeping your sink clean is to NOT LEAVE THE WASHERS IN THE SINK. It’s a matter of habit. Try to force yourself to get into the habit of putting your dirty dishes directly into the dishwasher, or cleaning them right away if you don’t have a dishwasher.

Once the sink is clear of dishes, wipe the debris in the sink and rinse it out. Next, spray the sink with an all-purpose cleaner or a vinegar and water mixture if you prefer!

Next, the secret weapon, baking soda. Once the sink is wiped down, sprinkle it with baking soda and wipe the powder off completely with warm water. Then buff with a dry cloth.
