I let it sit for a few minutes and then wipe it with a scrubbie. If you have the mats in your sink and a/or a sink divider, leave them in the sink and scrub them also. You will find that all the stains come out easily. I empty the sink and then just spray the sink with clear water... nice and clean and smells fresh.

It removes gunk you didn't know was there, doesn't scratch, deodorizes, and you don't have to worry about sending chemicals down the drain.

Let stand for 15 minutes or more. Works much better than bleach or 3% hydrogen peroxide. Alternatively, daily application of Comet cleanser keeps sink white.

Add full-strength distilled white vinegar to the paper, soaking it. Let sit overnight. In the morning, remove paper and scrub with a mildly abrasive sponge.

Let this stand until you can drain the water without burning yourself. Afterwards use a little Lemon juice or lime juice to spritz the sink and counteract the bleach smell.
